目的:评估香烟依赖量表(CDS-12)在不同的日常吸烟者样本中的属性,并提供一般人群样本的参考评分。瑞士日内瓦的精神科门诊患者(n = 226),法国戒烟诊所的客户(n = 370),结果:在所有4个样本中,Cronbach's α系数均> 0.87,因子分析表明CDS-12是单向的。CDS-12略微偏向较高值,并且与呼出的一氧化碳相关。但这种关联并不强(解释了9%的方差,p < 0.001)。CDS-12评分最高的是戒烟诊所的客户(平均值= 47.7,SD = 10.2),其次是精神病患者(平均值= 44.4,SD = 8.4)、戒烟网站的访问者(平均值= 43.3,SD = 11.6)和一般人群样本(平均值= 36.9。SD = 12.3)。除了宽容,每个元素在DSM-IV和ICD-10定义的依赖反映了至少一个项目在CDS-12.Conclusions,即使与这些定义的匹配有时是间接的:本文提出了参考分数和有效性和可靠性测试CDS-12在日常吸烟者的样本的多样性。这些信息应该对临床医生和研究人员有用。(C)2008爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Aim: To assess the properties of the Cigarette Dependence Scale (CDS-12) in various samples of daily smokers and to provide reference scores in a general population sample.Methods: Surveys in 4 samples of daily cigarette smokers: psychiatric out-patients in Geneva, Switzerland (n = 226), clients of smoking cessation clinics in France (n = 370), visitors of a French-language smoking cessation website (n = 13,697) and a representative sample of the general population of Geneva (n = 292).Results: In all 4 samples, Cronbach's alpha coefficients were > 0.87 and factor analyses indicated that CDS-12 was uniclimensional. CDS-12 was slightly skewed towards higher values, and it was associated with expired carbon monoxide. but this association was not strong (9% of variance explained, p < 0.001). CDS-12 scores were highest in clients of smoking cessation clinics (mean = 47.7, SD = 10.2), followed by psychiatric patients (mean = 44.4, SD = 8.4), visitors of smoking cessation websites (mean = 43.3, SD = 11.6) and the general population sample (mean = 36.9. SD = 12.3). Except for tolerance, each element in the DSM-IV and ICD-10 definitions of dependence is reflected by at least one item in CDS-12, even though the match with these definitions is sometimes indirect.Conclusions: This paper presents reference scores and validity and reliability tests for CDS-12 in a diversity of samples of daily smokers.
