“…Only recently have studies been able to speculate on the directionality of the relationship between psychiatric disorders and smoking risk ( Ziedonis et al, 2008 ), although these relationships are not well established among consumers of ST. Fifth, our study assessed only lifetime diagnoses of anxiety and depression, rather than dimensional symptom measures. Other studies have found signifi cant associations between ST use and symptoms of negative affectivity, such as depression ( Rouse, 1989 ) and anger ( Kerby et al, 2003 ). Finally, these results cannot be generalized to all American Indians as considerable diversity exists in geography, culture, urbanization, and availability of tobacco cessation programs.…”

“…ST users are more likely to report concurrent depressive symptoms in both adult ( Rouse, 1989 ) and adolescent ( Coogan, Geller, & Adams, 2000 ;Tercyak & Audrain, 2002 ) samples relative to nonusers . The odds of ST use among American Indian adolescents with a history of externalizing anger, characterized by yelling and fighting, is approximately three times higher than those without a history of anger-related problems ( Kerby, Brand, & John, 2003 ). Some studies suggest that nicotine dependence status infl uences the ST -psychiatric disorders association.…”

Introduction: Rates of nicotine use are high in American Indians. Anxiety and depression tend to be associated with cigarette use, but the association of anxiety and depression with smokeless tobacco (ST) is less clear. We asked if panic disorder, major depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are related to lifetime ST use in 2 American Indian tribes. Methods:Logistic regression analyses examined the association between lifetime panic disorder, major depression, and PTSD and the odds of lifetime ST use status after controlling for sociodemographic characteristics, smoking status, and alcohol use disorders in 1,506 Northern Plains and 1,268 Southwest tribal members. Results:Odds of lifetime ST use was 1.6 times higher in Northern Plains tribal members with a lifetime history of PTSD after controlling for sociodemographic variables and smoking (95% CI : 1.1, 2.3; p = .01). This association remained signifi cant after further adjustment for panic disorder and major depression (odds ratio [ OR ] = 1.5; 95% CI : 1.0, 2.2; p = .04) but was diminished after accounting for alcohol use ( OR = 1.3; 95% CI : 0.9, 1.9; p = .23). In the Southwest, lifetime psychiatric disorders were not associated with lifetime ST use status. Increasing psychiatric comorbidity was signifi cantly linked to increased odds of ST use in both tribes. Conclusions:This study is the fi rst to examine psychiatric conditions and lifetime ST use in a large, geographically diverse American Indian community sample. Although approximately 30% of tribal members were lifetime users of ST, the association with lifetime psychiatric disorders was not as strong as those observed with cigarette smoking. Understanding shared mechanisms between all forms of tobacco use with anxiety and depressive disorders remains an important area for investigation.

“…5 There are several studies in the literature associating tobacco consumption and novelty seeking, anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, impulsivity, aggressiveness, shyness, social alienation, self-esteem, as well as tendency to present anti-social, non conventional and risk behaviors, locus of control, and hostility, among others. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] A general overview on studies already developed on the topic show that smokers are more extravert, tense, anxious, depressive and impulsive than non-smokers or ex-smokers. Yet, they present increased traits of neuroticism, psychoticism, hostility, sensation seeking, and tendencies to anti-social, non-conventional and risky behaviors, as well as novelty seeking and mood disorders symptoms.…”

INTRODUÇÃO: O estudo da relação entre personalidade e tabagismo pode subsidiar o tratamento da dependência. OBJETIVOS: Identificar características de personalidade de fumantes, ex-fumantes e não-fumantes. MÉTODO: Foram selecionados 1.245 estudantes matriculados na Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso. Foi aplicado um questionário padronizado para levantamento do perfil sociodemográfico e padrão de consumo de tabaco dos estudantes, seguido pela versão revisada das Escalas Comrey de Personalidade (CPS). Utilizou-se a análise de variância ANOVA para comparação dos escores de fumantes, ex-fumantes e não-fumantes no CPS e duas análises de regressão logística múltipla para avaliar as associações entre os escores do CPS e tabagismo. RESULTADOS: Foi encontrada prevalência de 6,67% de fumantes, 6,58% de ex-fumantes e 86,73% de não-fumantes. A primeira análise de regressão logística detectou associação positiva entre a categoria fumante e os escores nas escalas de masculinidade (M) e tendenciosidade (R) e associação inversa com a escala de ordem x falta de compulsão (O) do CPS. A segunda detectou associação negativa da categoria ex-fumante com os escores obtidos em R e M e positiva com a escala de atividade x falta de energia (A) do CPS. DISCUSSÃO: Fumantes foram mais tendenciosos e adotaram mais o estereótipo social da masculinidade em relação a não-fumantes e ex-fumantes. Fumantes se descreveram mais como descuidados, relaxados, imprudentes, não-sistemáticos e pouco asseados em comparação aos não-fumantes. Ex-fumantes apresentaram mais vigor, energia e disposição em relação aos fumantes. Supõe-se que esses resultados possam subsidiar programas de tratamento da dependência nicotínica.

“…Although few studies have examined personality and behavioral correlates of ST use in females, some evidence indicates that ST users may exhibit higher levels of anger relative to nonusers. Kerby, Brand, and John (2003), for example, investigated the relationships between tobacco use and measures of anger among male and female Native-American adolescents. Those who reacted to anger with externalizing responses (e.g., fighting, arguing) were more likely to be current ST users.…”

Although considerable research has been conducted on smokeless tobacco (ST) use in males, much less is known about the characteristics of female ST users. The present study examined the prevalence and correlates of lifetime ST use among female Air Force recruits (N=9,087). Participants were surveyed during Basic Military Training regarding their history of tobacco use and other health risk behaviors. Although the prevalence of current ST use was low (<1%; n=34), 6.6% (n=599) had tried ST. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that lifetime ST use was related to ethnicity, with Native Americans and Whites being most likely to have tried ST. Additional correlates of lifetime ST use included post-high-school education (OR=1.26, 95% CI=1.03-1.55); weekly acts of road rage (OR=1.48, 95% CI=1.06-2.06); frequent arguing (OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.18-2.48); daily or near-daily alcohol consumption (OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.03-2.82); current cigarette use (OR=3.80, 95% CI=2.42-5.94); and experimental use of cigars (OR=4.01, 95% CI=3.22-5.01), pipes (OR=2.23, 95% CI=1.64-3.03), and clove cigarettes (OR=1.23, 95% CI=1.01-1.49), all of which were associated with an increased likelihood of ST use. Results suggest that female recruits who have ever used ST engage in a variety of risk behaviors including use of other tobacco products and alcohol, as well as additional harmful behaviors.
