“…Internal consistency for the FTND in the present study was low (α = 0.58), but not substantially lower than what has been reported elsewhere (α = 0.64; Pomerleau et al 1994). Positive memory questionnaire During screening, a positive memory questionnaire was administered to obtain autobiographical memories for the positive mood inductions.…”

“…and "Do you find it hard to refrain from smoking in places where it is forbidden?" The FTND has shown good internal consistency, positive relations with key smoking variables (e.g., saliva cotinine; Heatherton, Kozlowski, Frecker, & Fagerstrom, 1991;Payne, Smith, McCracken, McSherry, & Antony, 1994), and high degrees of test-retest reliability (Pomerleau, Carton, Lutzke, Flessland, & Pomerleau, 1994).

The present investigation compared 123 community-recruited daily smokers with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), panic disorder (PD), nonclinical panic attacks (PA), or no current Axis I psychopathology (controls; C) in terms of nicotine dependence, smoking rate, quit history, severity of symptoms during past quit attempts, and motivation for and expectancies about smoking. No differences were observed between groups in regard to smoking rate or nicotine dependence. The PTSD group reported making more lifetime quit attempts than the other groups, and the PTSD and PD groups perceived more severe symptoms during past quit attempts. The PD and PTSD groups reported greater motivation to smoke to reduce negative affect. Individuals with PTSD endorsed a stronger expectation that smoking would alleviate negative mood states and would produce negative consequences. Overall, results suggest that smokers with PD or PTSD differ from other smoking groups in a number of clinically significant ways.

There is an increasing empirical recognition that tobacco use and dependence are elevated among those with psychopathology compared to those without psychiatric conditions (Kalman, Morissette, & George, 2005). For example, persons with, relative to those without, psychiatric disorders are approximately twice as likely to be current smokers (Lasser et al., 2000). Moreover, it is estimated that although smokers with psychiatric disorders represent approximately 20% of persons in the United States (U.S.), they consume over 40% of the cigarettes in the nation (Lasser et al., 2000). Such high rates of smoking among those with psychiatric disorders may play a clinically significant role in the high rates of diagnostic comorbidity and mortality observed in people with psychiatric disorders (Kalman et al., 2005). NIH Public AccessRecent studies have found important linkages between smoking and certain anxiety disorders (Feldner, Babson, & Zvolensky, 2007a;Morissette, Tull, Gulliver, Kamholz, & Zimering, 2007;Patton, Carlin, Coffey, Wolfe, Hibbert, & Bowes, 1998; Zvolensky, Feldner, LeenFeldner, & McLeish, 2005 (Beckham et al., 1995;Breslau et al., 2003;Buckley et al., 2004;Feldner et al., 2007a).
