INTRODUCTION
Most US quitlines have quitsites and websites designated to promote their services. Quitsites have the potential to encourage LGBTQ individuals to utilize quitline services by explicitly mentioning the provision of LGBTQ-competent services. The present study audited quitsites to determine the presence of information regarding services for LGBTQ individuals.
METHODS
Using a checklist consisting of nine criteria, a cross-sectional audit of the US quitsites was conducted between 16 October and 8 November 2023. The audit was divided into two phases: 1) auditors coded all quitsites separately, and 2) auditors met with the first author to compare their coding and reach a consensus. The inter-rater agreement was calculated. Frequencies and percentages were calculated for each criterion.
RESULTS
Auditors evaluated a total of 46 quitsites. Inter-rater agreement was 96.85%. Seven quitsites (15.2%) met 0 of the nine criteria, and 36.9% of the quitsites (17/46) met more than six criteria. Only one quitsite met 8 of 9. No individual website met all nine criteria. While 84.8% of quitsites had at least a singular mention of the LGBTQ community somewhere on their website, only 4.3% of the quitsites mentioned the LGBTQ community on their landing page.
CONCLUSIONS
Most quitsites mentioned the LGBTQ community somewhere on their website (84.8%). However, only 4.3% of the quitsites mentioned the LGBTQ community on their landing page. Results suggest that quitsites explicitly mention the provision of services for LGBTQ individuals on their landing page, which has the potential to engage LGBTQ individuals into quitline services and reduce tobacco-related disparities.
引言
大多数美国戒烟热线都设有戒烟网站以及专门用于推广其服务的网站。戒烟网站有可能通过明确提及提供适合 LGBTQ 群体的服务，鼓励 LGBTQ 群体利用戒烟热线服务。本研究对戒烟网站进行审核，以确定是否存在有关为 LGBTQ 群体提供服务的信息。
方法
在 2023 年 10 月 16 日至 11 月 8 日期间，使用包含九条标准的清单对美国戒烟网站进行了横断面审核。审核分为两个阶段：1）审核人员分别对所有戒烟网站进行编码，2）审核人员与第一作者会面，比较他们的编码并达成共识。计算评分者间信度。计算每个标准的频率和百分比。
结果
审核人员共评估了 46 个戒烟网站。评分者间信度为 96.85%。七个戒烟网站（15.2%）未达到九条标准中的任何一条，36.9%的戒烟网站（17/46）达到了六条以上标准。只有一个戒烟网站达到了九条中的八条。没有一个网站满足所有九条标准。虽然 84.8%的戒烟网站在其网站上至少有一处提到了 LGBTQ 群体，但只有 4.3%的戒烟网站在其主页上提到了 LGBTQ 群体。
结论
大多数戒烟网站在其网站上的某个地方提到了 LGBTQ 群体（84.8%）。然而，只有 4.3%的戒烟网站在其主页上提到了 LGBTQ 群体。结果表明，戒烟网站应在其主页上明确提及为 LGBTQ 群体提供服务，这有可能促使 LGBTQ 群体利用戒烟热线服务并减少与烟草相关的差异。
