有钱有动力 戒烟也积极
in Wangtam, on 2009-03-01
一项最新研究显示,拿了钱戒烟的成功率要远远超过那些没钱拿的,这是财务激励有助于改变吸烟行为的一项最有力的证据。
在同类项目中规模最大的这项研究推出之际,正值当今越来越多的雇主、学校和其他机构花钱鼓励人们做从减肥到提高分数的各种事情。这项最新研究发表在上周的《新英格兰医学杂志》(New England Journal of Medicine)上。
吸烟是美国人最大的早逝原因之一。据称美国每年大约有48万人死于吸烟。目前美国成年人大约有五分之一吸烟,这个比例低于十年前的四分之一。尽管大多数吸烟者表示自己愿意戒烟,但近年来的研究显示,每年都尝试戒烟的人只有不到3%完全戒除了烟瘾。
