  • Assessment of preferences for assistance options and incentives.

    • Main Results:

    • Saving money was a significant incentive across all groups.
    • Previous quitters and intenders were more receptive to cessation assistance.
    • Personal willpower and gradual reduction were favored for quitting attempts.
    • Program accessibility (free) and social support (friends) were highly valued.

    Conclusions:

    • School-based smoking cessation programs should incorporate financial incentives and social support.
    • Interventions should be tailored to acknowledge varying levels of quitting experience and intent.
    • Free, accessible programs emphasizing personal strategies are likely to be effective for young Australian smokers.
