Résumé / Abstract
There are now over 450 active Nicotine Anonymous meetings (groups) in the United States. The origins and current status of Nicotine Anonymous are described, and some comparisons are drawn with Alcoholics Anonymous. Several research issues are identified including determination of what kinds of smokers are attracted to, stick with, and benefit from Nicotine Anonymous; describing patterns of utilization; and the degree to which Nicotine Anonymous meetings follow 12-step principles and procedures. From a service perspective, Nicotine Anonymous may serve as a useful referral resource for smokers with alcohol- or substance-abuse comorbidities, especially those who have participated in 12-step programs.
