Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Content from communications (email, phone, monthly calls)
Will be content analyzed using Atlas.ti qualitative software according to the adaptation framework from Stirman and colleagues. Will identify 1) who made the modification; 2) what was modified (i.e., content, context, training and evaluation); 3) for whom the modification was made (e.g., individual counselor); 4) context of the modification (e.g., format, setting, personnel, population); and 5) what was the nature of the modification (e.g., adding elements). Will also code for facilitators and barriers that are consistent with the constructs from CFIR. All textual data will be double coded and discussed by the researchers.
Time frame
Up to 4 years2
Healthcare sector perspective
As needed, will use a process-flow analysis to identify all resources utilized at each of the step of the program.
Time frame
Up to 4 years3
Reach
The analysis of the data from the logs and surveys will include examining the means, medians, standard deviations, and ranges overall and by state quitline for Reach
