目前对尼古丁依赖的概念化建议评估其多维结构，特别是为了了解青少年吸烟者的依赖是如何发展的。目前尚不清楚这种多维结构是否适用于吸烟水平不同的青少年。对报告在过去30天内吸烟的526名青少年(55.5%女性；74.3%高加索人)进行了青年特有的多维尼古丁依赖症状量表(NDSS)的心理测量学特性和预测效度的评估。在基线和6个月时测量NDSS和吸烟量。验证性因素分析支持NDSS-T(NDSS-T，α=.94)和样本的五个因素：干劲(α=.92)、容忍(α=.85)、优先(α=.83)、刻板印象(α=.73)和连续性(α=.64)。NDSS-T、驱动力、耐受性和优先级是随后吸烟量的预测因子(p<；.01)。动力、耐受性和连续性预测了随后的停止(p<；0.05)。尽管针对年轻人的NDSS具有良好的心理测量学特性，但对随后吸烟和戒烟行为的预测有效性测试表明，只有某些依赖维度，特别是驱动力和耐受性，似乎在这个样本中突出。进一步的研究应该评估吸烟程度不同的青少年对尼古丁依赖的多维性质。
Current conceptualizations of nicotine dependence suggest assessing its multidimensional structure, especially for understanding how dependence develops in teen smokers. It is unknown if a multidimensional structure holds for teens with varying levels of smoking. The psychometric properties and predictive validity of the youth-specific, multidimensional Nicotine Dependence Syndrome Scale (NDSS) was assessed among 526 teens (55.5% female; 74.3% Caucasian) who reported smoking in the past 30 days. NDSS and smoking measures were obtained at baseline and six months. Confirmatory factor analysis supported the NDSS-Total (NDSS-T, α=.94) and five factors for the sample: Drive (α=.92), Tolerance (α=.85), Priority (α=.83), Stereotypy (α=.73), and Continuity (α=.64). NDSS-T, Drive, Tolerance, and Priority were predictors of subsequent amount smoked (p<.01). Drive, Tolerance, and Continuity predicted subsequent cessation (p<.05). Though the youth-specific NDSS has good psychometric properties, tests of predictive validity for subsequent smoking and cessation behavior suggest only certain dimensions of dependence, particularly Drive and Tolerance, appear to be salient in this sample. Further studies should assess the multidimensional nature of nicotine dependence among teens with varying levels of smoking.
