The Impact of Stress, Education, and Neighbourhood Socioeconomic Status on Smoking Cessation in Persons in Treatment for Substance Use Disorders

Introduction

Smoking prevalence remains high among individuals with substance use disorders (SUD) in treatment, yet limited research has explored the factors influencing smoking cessation in this population. This study examines whether stress, educational attainment, and neighbourhood socioeconomic status (SES) are associated with smoking cessation among adults receiving treatment for non-tobacco SUDs.
