The primary goal of the research study is to investigate the efficacy of a brief, personalized computer-delivered transdiagnostic intervention (PFI) that addresses smoking and distress tolerance to reduce smoking, increase quit attempts, reduce perceived barriers to cessation, increase distress tolerance, reduce anxiety/depressive symptoms, and increase adaptive coping skills compared to a personalized feedback on smoking only control. To address this aim, the investigators will implement a randomized controlled trial that will employ a longitudinal experimental design and involve four stages: (a) phone-screener (pre-screener); (b) baseline appointment consisting of a pre-intervention assessment (eligibility), random assignment to a one-session computer-delivered intervention (Active PFI versus Control PFI with no personalized feedback on distress tolerance), and a post-intervention assessment; (c) 2-week follow-up; (d) 1-month follow-up. Assessments will include a multi-method approach, including biological, behavioral, and self-report methods.
