The main aims to answer are

  • Determine study feasibility.
  • Obtain effect sizes for changes in pain amplification and pain inhibition in abstinent vs non-abstinent Native Americans.
  • Obtain effect sizes for variables in the conceptual model of the Native American smoking-pain relationship.
