Abstract: It is essential to understand that not all smokers are equal, and that certain smokers need to be “won” as “potential clients” of an intervention program aimed at addressing their specifi c needs. Thus, the objective of the article was to compare the profi le of smokers recruited for a smoking cessation clinical trial with that of the general smoking population in the city of Rio de Janeiro, in the years 2002-2003. Heterogeneities observed may indicate the need for adopting different recruitment strategies, associated with the existing interventions, to encourage as many and as diverse eligible individuals as possible.
