Some research suggests that the use of a programmed relapse with cigarette smokers trying to quit may actually increase the likelihood of relapse. This study hypothesized that one way to obtain the possible instructional benefits of a programmed relapse without precipitating actual relapse may be to employ a hypnotically …
