Wisconsin Smokers’ Health Study: Tobacco Dependence, Treatment and Outcomes (2005-2009)
The original Wisconsin Smokers’ Health Study (WSHS) was funded primarily by the National Institutes on Drug Abuse as a Transdisciplinary Tobacco Use Research Center (TTURC). The follow-up study, Wisconsin Smokers’ Health Study 2 (WSHS 2) continues to see patients, and is unique in that it examines each smoker as a “whole person,” accounting for a bevy of environmental and health maintenance factors. See graphic.
Results Show Extremely High Quit Rates for Original WSHS
Data from the Wisconsin Smokers’ Health Study suggest that treatments provided in the study produced some of the highest quit rates ever achieved.

What WSHS Accomplished
The study compared various FDA-approved stop smoking medications and combinations of medications. This helped to determine which treatments work best for different individuals. The study found that patients are happier after quitting smoking. And that using the Wisconsin Tobacco Quit Line plus combination medication gave smokers the best chance to quit.
WSHS includes four major research projects, plus pilot grants and a career development program.
-
TTURC 2 Mini-Grant Project: Meditation and Quitting Smoking
This study examined how mindfulness meditation can help people quit smoking. -
TTURC 2 Mini-Grant Projects: Students Examine Tobacco Treatment
These studies examined 1) the influence of parental smoking and 2) ability of participants to retain what they learn about how to quit. -
TTURC 2 Pilot-Grant Project: Smoking Among Prisoners
This study examined the effect of smoking bans in Wisconsin prisons on ex-cons. -
TTURC 2 Mini-Grant Project: Turning the Tide in China
This study examined how to work with Chinese doctors to promote cessation.
