Technology-Based Interventions in Tobacco Use Treatment Among People Who Identify as African American/Black, Hispanic/Latina/o, and American Indian/Alaska Native: Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Although tobacco use has significantly declined in the general population, traditional tobacco use treatment uptake and success rates remain disproportionately low among people who identify as African American/Black, Hispanic/Latina/o, and American Indian/Alaska Native. Technology-based interventions (TBIs) for tobacco use are promising alternatives to traditional tobacco use treatments.

Objective

This scoping review aims to investigate the extent to which the use of digital TBIs in tobacco use treatment research promotes health equity among people who identify as African American/Black, Hispanic/Latina/o, and American Indian/Alaska Native.

Methods

This scoping review identifies US-based studies (between January 2000 and March 2021) that enlist TBIs for tob
