Brief Summary: The purpose of the study is to examine the effects of a novel bio-behavioral paradigm, entitled, Puff Topography Biofeedback Training, compared to a control condition, in reducing stress-induced smoking reinforcement.
Detailed Description: Smokers with emotional distress are particularly vulnerable to smoking reinforcement due to various biopsychological factors that contribute to deficits in emotion regulation and heightened reward processing, which undermine cessation efforts. Differences in puffing behavior may correspond with changes in cardiorespiratory parameters that may promote self-regulation and reduce craving.

This study is a between-subjects experimental test of Puff Topography Biofeedback Training (PTBT) and its ability to modify puff topography and cardiorespiratory activity during stress-precipitated smoking, and in turn, reduce acute smoking reinforcement.

Participants will be randomized to either PTBT or a Control condition and will complete two smoking trials on two successive days. The first smoking trial (Visit 1) will allow participants to gain familiarity with the task. The second smoking trial (Visit 2) will be completed following acute laboratory stress induction (stress-precipitated smoking trial).

The primary study aims are to test the effect of PTBT vs. Control as assessed via acute changes in stress-precipitated smoking reinforcement and changes in puffing behavior and cardiorespiratory parameters.The results of this high pre-intervention study could inform the subsequent development of a novel intervention strategy for improving quit outcomes in a treatment-resistant population.

The primary study aims are to test the effect of PTBT vs. Control in terms of: (a) objective puff topography parameters; (b) subjective reinforcement; and (c) whether physiological indices reflective of smoking reinforcement differ between conditions.
