| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard treatment (ST) arm | Experimental | Participants will receive a brief smoking cessation intervention based on the "5A" and "5R" models proposed by the World Health Organization. The "STAR" method as quitting skills will also be provided. The "5A" model includes five steps to identify participants who are ready to quit smoking. For those who are ready to quit, a research assistant will assist them to quit using the "STAR" method: Set a quit date within 1 week, Tell the surrounding people that they have planned to quit and solicited their support, Anticipate challenges to quit attempt, and Remove all tobacco products. Otherwise, the "5R" model will be applied to those not yet ready to quit. After "5R" is applied, the research assistant will repeat the assessment of their willingness to quit. The booster interventions will be delivered by the research assistant through follow-ups arranged with the participants via phone. |
|
| Integrated Intervention (II) arm | Experimental | In addition to the brief smoking cessation intervention based on the "5A" and "5R" models, participants in this arm received brief advice on alcohol use based on the "FRAMES" model. The booster interventions will be delivered by the research assistant through follow-ups arranged with the participants via phone. |
|
| Control arm | No Intervention | Participants will be provided with two leaflets designed by Department of health: one for smoking cessation and another for alcohol abstinence. |
