Wynd's "Guided Health Imagery For Smoking Cessation And Long-Term Abstinence" - Critique 5 pages in length. As long as people have been smoking, they have also been trying to stop. While this dichotomy serves to illustrate the dual nature of this particular human vice, it also helps scientific research to delineate what techniques work best for smokers to achieve their cessation goal. Wynd's article focuses upon the implementation of guided imagery as a means by which to enhance the realization of immediate smoking cessation in conjunction with long-term abstinence, a combination that is not readily fulfilled with other methods people typically use to stop smoking. Much to the author's delight, her hypothesis was supported by results from a two-year follow-up on respondents' success rates. No additional sources used.
