In a country that exhibits some of the highest smoking rates globally, enhancing patient education regarding the value of smoking cessation for cancer care is vital. The objectives of our study were to describe sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with continued smoking in Jordanian smokers after a cancer diagnosis; to identify reasons for smoking and knowledge regarding smoking\u2019s impact on care; to examine in a multivariable manner the factors associated with continued smoking, and to accordingly generate patient counseling recommendations. An interviewer-administered survey using the Theoretical Domains Framework was employed. Among 350 subjects (mean age 51.0, median 52.7), approximately 38% of patients had quit or were in the process of quitting; 61.7% remained smokers. Substantial knowledge gaps with regard to the impact of continued smoking on cancer care were observed. Remaining a smoker after diagnosis was associated with being employed, not receiving chemotherapy or surgery, having lower confidence in quitting, and having a lower number of identified reasons for smoking. Interventions to promote cessation in Jordanian cancer patients who smoke should focus on enhancing patient awareness about the impact of smoking in cancer care and raising perceived self-efficacy to quit.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/curroncol29120732","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,30]],"date-time":"2022-11-30T08:46:41Z","timestamp":1669798001000},"page":"9335-9348","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Supporting Smokers in Difficult Settings: Suggestions for Better Education and Counseling in Cancer Centers in Jordan"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Feras I.","family":"Hawari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Control Office, King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman 11941, Jordan"},{"name":"Section of Pulmonary and Critical Care, Department of Internal Medicine, King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman 11941, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Minas A.","family":"Abu Alhalawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Control Office, King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman 11941, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8133-355X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rasha H.","family":"Alshraiedeh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Pharmacy, The University of Jordan, Amman 11972, Jordan"},{"name":"Volunteer Research Program at King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman11941, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ahmad M.","family":"Al Nawaiseh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Volunteer Research Program at King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman11941, Jordan"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, The University of Jordan, Amman 11972, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0594-5372","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alia","family":"Khamis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Volunteer Research Program at King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman11941, Jordan"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, The University of Jordan, Amman 11972, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yasmeen I.","family":"Dodin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Control Office, King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman 11941, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nour A.","family":"Obeidat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Control Office, King Hussein Cancer Center, Amman 11941, Jordan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"3593","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2014.55.9666","article-title":"Smoking cessation after cancer","volume":"32","author":"Sitas","year":"2014","journal-title":"J.
