- Introduction: Identify and describe the health issue you are addressing and the population affected. Provide a concise synopsis of the purpose of the paper and a general introduction to the target population and the health issue.
- Relationship Between Health Issue and Target Population: Provide a description about the target population that you have selected, including demographic information about the population. Describe the health issue in relation to the population you chose.
- Contributing Factors/Social Determinants of Health: Describe the reasons or causes for the health issue. Analyze how social, cultural, behavioral, and psychological factors contribute to the health issue among this population, and the health disparity experienced by the population. Evaluate structural bias, social inequities, and racism that undermine health and create health inequity among this population. Describe under which level of interaction these causes and contributing factors fall: intrapersonal, interpersonal, community, or all three.
- Theory or Model: Identify the theory or model that best explains the behaviors associated with the health issue selected, as well as best matches the level of interaction for contributing factors. Discuss how this theory or model applies to the health issue you are addressing and provide a rationale for choosing this theory. Describe examples of how this theory has been used successfully in the research literature.
- Conclusion: Describe health promotion strategies or behavior change strategies to reduce health disparities and health inequity related to the health issue among this population.

Liao, Y., Wu, Q., Tang, J., Zhang, F., Wang, X., Qi, C., … & Cohen, J. (2016). The efficacy of mobile phone-based text message interventions (‘Happy Quit’) for smoking cessation in China. BMC Public Health, 16(1). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-016-3528-5
The study by Liao et al. (2016) aims at investigating the efficacy of mobile phone text messages in reducing incidences of smoking within a community setting. The study addresses how information technology measures can be used to reduce smoking incidences within community settings. The information technology approach adopted is the use of mobile phone text messages. The intervention in the study also uses a section of the population affected by smoking incidences in China. The above approach could be adopted in reducing incidences of smoking in any healthcare setting.
Richter, K. P., Shireman, T. I., Ellerbeck, E. F., Cupertino, A. P., Cox, L. S., Preacher, K. J., … & Lambart, L. (2015). Comparative and cost effectiveness of telemedicine versus telephone counseling for smoking cessation. Journal of Medical Internet Research. https://doi.org/10.2196/jmir.3975
The study by Richter et al. (2015) compared the effectiveness of two approaches in reducing the incidence of smoking through smoking cessation programs. Ideally, both interventions have been used in several settings in lowering incidences of smoking and could be applied as a measure in reducing smoking across clinical settings and communities with high incidences of smoking and its associated diseases. The paper uses two different information technology measures in lowering incidences of smoking cessation and provides information on which action is more effective. The two measures being compared include the use of telemedicine and telephone counseling. The most effective measure could be selected in reducing smoking incidences in cessation programs.

Zeng et al. (2016) reports the use of mobile phone applications in reducing smoking cessation. The article is applicable in the current setting, considering that more populations have access to mobile phone applications. Also, most communities have reported high smoking incidences and in need of reasonable measures in reducing smoking cessation rates. The study is also relevant as it uses a populace that is affected by high smoking incidences. The study will serve to provide more information on the role of information technology measures in reducing the prevalence of smoking within communities.
