Smoking Cessation Intervention for American Indian Women Experiencing Intimate Partner Violence
This study is testing a program called "Healing Within" to help American Indian women who have experienced intimate partner violence (IPV) quit smoking. "Healing Within" is a group program that uses cultural values, mindfulness, and storytelling to support women. The study wants to see if this program is practical, acceptable, and helpful for reducing smoking. It also looks at how the program might affect alcohol and drug use. You might be able to join if you are an American Indian woman from the Northern Plains, live in or near Rapid City, SD, are 18 or older, smoke at least five cigarettes a day, and have experienced IPV in the last three months. The study is currently unclear about its recruitment status.

What this trial measures
- Trauma-Informed Practice Scales (TIPS)Up to week 8
Participants perception of cultural responsiveness of the intervention will be assessed using the 8-item Cultural Responsiveness and Inclusivity subscales of the TIPS as an index of intervention acceptability/likability. Items are rated on a 0-3 Likert scale, and mean scores are computed. Scores range from 0-3, with higher scores representing receipt of more trauma-informed, culturally responsive services.
- Session Rating Scale (SRS)Up to week 8
Participant ratings of working alliance will be assessed using the SRS as an index of intervention acceptability/likability. The SRS is a 4-item visual analog instrument. Each item is assessed using a 0-10 point scale. A total score is computed by summing each item. Scores will range from 0-60, with an overall score of 36, or 9 on any item, indicating potential concerns in working alliance.
- Group Attitude Scale (GAS)Up to week 8
Group cohesion will be assessed using a modified version of the GAS an an index of intervention acceptability/likability. The 20 items are rated on a 1-5 Likert scale. A total score is computed by averaging the items. Scores range from 1-5, with higher scores indicating more group cohesion.
