This assessment is a 22-item, self-report, four-factor measure. The factors assess core spirituality (connection, meaning, faith, involvement, and experience), spiritual/existential perspective, personal application/humility, and acceptance/insight (i.e., insight into futility of focusing attention on things that cannot be changed).

This questionnaire consists of 54-items assessing six social role areas (work, social and leisure activities, family relationship, marital relationship, parental role, and role within the family unit). The SAS-SR is completed only at baseline, week 12, and 3- and 6-month follow-up. The SAS-SR has been widely used , with normative data for comparative purposes.

Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS; Snaith et al, 1995). The SHAPS is a 14-item scale that measures anhedonia, the inability to experience pleasure. The items cover the domains of: social interaction, food and drink, sensory experience, and interest/pastimes. A score of 2 or less constitutes a “normal” score, while an “abnormal” score is defined as 3 or more. Each item has four possible responses: strongly disagree, disagree, agree, or strongly agree. Either of the “disagree” responses score one point, and either of the “agree” responses score 0 points. Thus, the final score ranges from 0 to 14. The SHAPS has adequate construct validity and satisfactory test-retest reliability (ICC=0.70) (Franken et al, 2007). High internal consistency has also been reported (Cronbach’s alpha of 0.94) (Franken et al, 2007).

The Smoking History Survey is a modified version of the Mayo Nicotine Dependence Center Patient Questionnaire [1991] and is administered by the RA. It asks participants how many cigarettes per day they smoke, at what age they started smoking, number of years smoking, how many times they have attempted to quit (including methods), when the last quit attempt occurred, their longest period of cigarette abstinence, and if there are other smokers in their household. Information on other non-cigarette tobacco products will also be noted.

The Smokers Beliefs Questionnaire (Frosch et al., 1998) is set of two self-administered questions in which the subject is asked to rate the severity of their cigarette addiction and how easy or difficult it would be for them to quit.

Humphreys and colleagues (Humphreys, Greenbaum et al. 1996) developed the Short Understanding of Substance Abuse Scale (SUSS) as a modified version of the Understanding of Alcoholism Scale. The latter scale was developed originally by Moyers and Miller (Moyers and Miller 1993) to assess alcoholics’ beliefs about the etiology and treatment of alcoholism. Two changes were made. First, the scale was shortened from 50 items to 20 items. Second, the wording of the items, as well the inclusion of some new items, has been broadened to focus on both alcohol and drug use. Three factor analytically derived subscales have been identified: disease model, psychosocial model, and eclectic orientation.

To assess the participant’s perception of the adverse consequences of her substance use, a short version of the Short Inventory of Problems (SIP-R), will be administered at baseline and at the end of the active study phase. The SIP is modified from the Drinker Inventory of Consequences (DrINC) (Miller et al., 1995), for use with drug users. Its psychometric properties have been found to be acceptable in previous trials (Miller et al., 1995). The baseline information from this instrument will be included in the MET Personal Feedback report.
