Abstract
BACKGROUND The present research aimed to determine the effect of an educational intervention based on the extended theory of planned behavior (ETPB) on waterpipe (WT) smoking cessation in women. METHODS The present quasi-experimental had a pre-test, post-test design with 3, 6 and 12 months follow-ups was conducted in Bandar Abbas city, south of Iran in December 2021-March 2023. A total of 448 women over the age of 15 (224 in the intervention group (IG), 224 in the control group (CG)), using a two-stage cluster sampling method participated. The educational intervention focused on WT smoking cessation implemented in 14 sessions. The educational methods in the training sessions were lectures, collaborative discussions, Q&As, brainstorming, role plays, and peer education. The main outcome was WT cessation behavior. Repeated measures ANOVA tests and post hoc were run to compare the IG and CG at baseline in terms of demographic variables, t-test and chi square test, and in the four points of time of data collection. The data were analyzed in Stata14. A p-value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULTS The mean and standard deviation of WT cessation behavior and all ETPB constructs in the IG was significantly higher than the CG. After the educational intervention, in the IG, the perceived behavioral control, attitude, subjective norm, intention and knowledge increased, and the weekly smoking and WT smoking habit decreased (P < 0.001). The CG did not have any significant change in other variables except for the increased knowledge score. During the 12-month follow-up, the cessation rate was 43.81% (P = 0.645) in the IG and 7.45% in the CG (P = 0.081). CONCLUSIONS The educational intervention positively affected WT smoking reduction and cessation in women through influencing the ETPB constructs. It is strongly recommended to design theory-based interventions beyond the individual level with an emphasis on interpersonal relationships to facilitate WT cessation as far as possible.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the supportive care needs of breast cancer survivors with nonclinical, subclinical, or clinical fear of cancer recurrence. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, 385 breast cancer survivors consented and completed a set of online questionnaires. Supportive care needs were assessed by using the 34-item Supportive Care Needs Survey. Fear of cancer recurrence was assessed by using the Fear of Cancer Recurrence Inventory. RESULTS One hundred eighty-four (47.8%) participants reported nonclinical fear of cancer recurrence, 147 (38.2%) reported subclinical fear of cancer recurrence, and 54 (14.0%) reported clinical fear of cancer recurrence. Higher levels of fear of cancer recurrence were associated with higher levels of supportive care needs in five domains (β = 0.30-0.60, P < 0.001) after adjusting for places of residence, education, motherhood, and time since diagnosis. Among participants with nonclinical fears of cancer recurrence, the most common needs were in the 'Health care system/Information' domain (50.5%). Among participants with subclinical or clinical fear of cancer recurrence, the most common needs were in the 'Psychological' domain (85.7% and 96.3%, respectively). CONCLUSION Fear of cancer recurrence was associated with supportive care needs. The most common needs among participants with subclinical or clinical fears of cancer recurrence were psychological needs.

Abstract
Background The present study aimed to evaluate the results of a theory-based and systematic intervention on Hookah Tobacco Smoking (HTS) cessation in women local to Bandar Abbas, Iran. Methods In the present quasi-experimental research, we used an intervention mapping approach to develop, implement, and evaluate an education and training course as our intervention. Applying the results of a systematic review and two prior local qualitative studies, we identified six HTS determinants and set goals for the intervention. We selected 212 eligible women through systematic stratified random sampling and enrolled them in control and intervention groups. The course was presented to the intervention group in 17 sessions for four months. The educational material was developed to address the goals of the intervention, improve HTS determinants, and change the HTS behavior. We used a questionnaire to collect data on participants’ characteristics, HTS behavior, and detailed determinants of HTS in the control and intervention groups at the beginning of the study, at the end of the intervention, and at three- and six- months follow-up. All work done in the study was guided by ethical considerations. Results The results showed no significant difference between women enrolled in control and intervention groups regarding participants’ characteristics and HTS behavior. At baseline, there were no differences between groups for six determinants of HTS (knowledge, attitude, social norms, self-efficacy, habit, and intention). At the end of the intervention and at three and six months follow-up, the women in the intervention group had significantly better results in all six domains, compared with those in the control group. The rate of HTS abstinence at the end of the intervention and at the three- and six-month follow-ups was 61.3%, 48.5%, and 45.5% for the intervention and 16%, 14.4%, and 10% for the control groups, respectively. Conclusions HTS is a complicated behavior, and its cessation is hard. However, Intervention Mapping (IM) can be a powerful integrative, purposeful, theory-based, and participation-based method to reduce or cease HTS. This method should be tested in other settings.

Abstract
This Study was designed to answer the question: what are the intervention goals of women for ceasing to smoke. The present research was part of a larger study and was a pioneering systematic research conducted between September 23, 2018 and September 26, 2019 through an intervention mapping in southern Iran among professional hookah Smoking (HS) women. In order to know more about the HS among women, the behavioral and environmental correlates of HS/cessation and the determiners or fundamental causes of these factors were extracted via a systematic review and a local qualitative study. As the results revealed, the expected outcomes of the educational program concerning hookah cessation were achieved. As the realization of these outcomes requires certain changes to the behavioral and environmental dimensions, in the next step, the intervention goals of hookah cessation were identified. As the results showed, four behavioral factors involved in the unhealthy HS behavior were individual HS, Being in the Company of hookah smokers, Visiting tempting and contaminated places and Physical and mental dependence on HS (habit), In addition, four effective environmental factors were found at different interpersonal, organizational, community and policy levels. These include, respectively: recommendation and motivation for cessation by influential figures, care providers' poor inadequate knowledge and skill, Easy acceptance of hookah in society, and the lack of effective rules. Knowledge, awareness, social norms, Motivation to comply, skill and self-efficacy, habit, were among the determining factors of hookah cessation. Employment of a systematic is based on evidence and cooperation and is guided by a assessing the needs of the target population. Such a method can suggest more purposive and relevant intervention goals so as to cease HS. The aim would be to intervene in the purposes of the above-mentioned change, as compared in predetermined interventions, and increase the chances of HS cessation among women.

Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to determine the predictors of hookah smoking (HS) among professional HS women in Bandar Abbas, southern Iran using intervention mapping protocol. Methods: The present cross-sectional study is part of a larger study, which was conducted on 332 HS women using a multistage (clustered and randomized) process. Data were collected from October 2018 to August 2019 using a researcher-made questionnaire. Results: Mean age of the participants was 36.1 ± 13.3 years. Ordinal regression model, after the control of confounding variables, showed that attitudes, self-efficacy, habits, and intention were the most important predictors of HS behavior in women (OR = 1.14). The prevalence of HS was 1.76 times higher in women who did not want to quit hookah. Knowledge and Social norms were not associated with the HS behavior. Conclusions: According to the present findings, changing or eliminating women's positive attitude toward HS is deemed possible through reducing the social acceptance of HS in enculturating the negative attitude in society, enhancing women's self-efficacy via purposeful and specific education on resisting hookah temptation, unraveling all factors involved in habit formation and adjusting these factors through long-term interventions and timely interventions to affect intention to consumption before the actual occurrence of behavior (HS).
