Self-experimentation and self-management: Allies in combination therapies.
Self-experimentation is a valuable companion to self-management in the benefit of pharmaco-cognitive-behavior combination therapies.

Roberts' self-experimentation suggests trying more diversity in research to generate new ideas. This may inform current approaches to the cessation of smoking.
