“…In several previous studies, abstinent female smokers reported less reduction of withdrawal than their male counterparts after nicotine administration by routes other than smoking (e.g., via the patch or nasal spray) (Evans, Blank, Sams, Weaver, & Eissenberg, 2006; Perkins, Donny, & Caggiula, 1999; Robinson et al, 2007; Wetter et al, 1999). Females may be less sensitive than males to nicotine administered by routes other than smoking, but may be more sensitive to other smoking-related stimuli, such as visual, motor, and somatosensory components of the experience (Bohadana et al, 2003; Perkins, 2001; Pogun, 2001).…”

Women are more likely than men to relapse after initiating abstinence from cigarette smoking. The reasons for this phenomenon are unclear but may relate to negative mood, cigarette craving, or other symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. We addressed this issue in a study of 26 female and 38 male smokers. The Profile of Mood States, Shiffman-Jarvik Withdrawal Scale, and Urge to Smoke Scale were administered twice in each of two test sessions on different days. One session began within 1 hr after smoking ad libitum and the other followed overnight abstinence (>13 hr). On each test day, the two assessment blocks were separated by a 5-10-min break, during which each participant smoked one cigarette. In the first test block, both men and women reported higher scores after >13Correspondence: Edythe D.

Scores of female subjects showed significantly larger differences between sessions on the tension-anxiety subscale and a trend toward significance (p=.050) on the angerhostility subscale of Profile of Mood States than those of males. Moreover, on the tension-anxiety subscale, women also reported a greater reduction than men from smoking one cigarette after overnight abstinence. The findings indicate that overnight abstinence produces more negative mood symptoms and cigarette craving in female smokers than in males, and that resumption of smoking produces greater relief from these symptoms in female smokers. These differences may contribute to the greater likelihood of relapse when women try to quit smoking.

“…This is perhaps unsurprising given the equivocal findings regarding gender differences and smoking cue reactivity. While some studies have found greater smoking cue reactivity among women than men (Field & Duka, 2004; Knott et al, 2009; Waters et al, 2004), others have found no gender differences (Carter & Tiffany, 2001; Robinson et al, 2007; Saladin et al, 2012). In terms of ERP responses to smoking-related cues, we are unaware of any study in this area that reported examining gender differences, so it is unknown whether our lack of gender findings are typical.…”

While smokers are known to find smoking-related stimuli to be motivationally salient, the extent to which former smokers do so is largely unknown. In this study, we collected event-related potential (ERP) data from former and never smokers and compared them to a sample of current smokers interested in quitting who completed the same ERP paradigm prior to smoking cessation treatment. All participants (n = 180) attended one laboratory session where we recorded dense-array ERPs in response to cigarette-related, pleasant, unpleasant, and neutral pictures, and where we collected valence and arousal ratings of the pictures. We identified three spatial and temporal regions of interest, corresponding to the P1 (120-132 ms), early posterior negativity (EPN; 244-316 ms), and late positive potential (LPP; 384-800 ms) ERP components. We found that all participants produced larger P1 responses to cigarette-related pictures compared to the other picture categories. With the EPN component, we found that, similar to pleasant and unpleasant pictures, cigarette-related pictures attracted early attentional resources, regardless of smoking status. Both former and never smokers produced reduced LPP responses to cigarette-related and pleasant pictures compared to current smokers. Current smokers rated the cigarette-related pictures as being more pleasant and arousing than the former and never smokers. The LPP and picture rating results suggest that former smokers, like never smokers, do not find cigarette-related stimuli to be as motivationally salient as current smokers.

“…In terms of health behavior research, hedonic theory has been used extensively in studies of obesity and eating (e.g., Cota, Tschop, Horvath, & Levine, 2006; Finlayson, King, & Blundell, 2007; Garg, Wansink, & Inman, 2007; Mela, 2006; Urala & Lahteenmaki, 2006), smoking (Blendy, Strasser, & Walters, 2005; Cook, Spring, & McChargue, 2004; Dawkins, Acaster, & Powell, 2007; Kenny & Markou, 2005; J.

This paper reviews research relevant to a proposed conceptual model of exercise adherence that integrates the dual mode model and hedonic theory. Exercise intensity is posited to influence affective response to exercise via interoceptive (e.g., ventilatory drive) and cognitive (e.g., perceived autonomy) pathways; affective response to exercise is posited to influence exercise adherence via anticipated affective response to future exercise. The potential for self-paced exercise to enhance exercise adherence is examined in the context of the proposed model and suggestions are given for future research. Further evidence in support of self-paced exercise could have implications for exercise prescription, especially among overweight, sedentary adults, who are most in need of interventions that enhance adherence to exercise programs.
