将法国女性吸烟者(n = 36)和男性吸烟者(n = 60)与对照组女性吸烟者(n = 23)和男性非吸烟者(n = 45)的感觉寻求得分进行比较。研究结果清楚地表明,与不吸烟的人相比,男女吸烟者在寻求感觉方面的得分更高:他们在寻求感觉的去抑制、体验寻求和无聊敏感性方面得分更高。吸烟女性在寻求体验方面表现得尤为突出。评估吸烟者的感觉寻求成分、尼古丁依赖和吸烟动机之间的关系。通过Fagerstrom问卷和Russell吸烟动机分类的成瘾因子评估,女性的去抑制和体验寻求与尼古丁依赖适度相关。寻求体验程度高的女性可能特别容易吸烟,也可能产生依赖。需要进一步的研究来说明,高感觉寻求者是一个可能对吸烟的刺激奖励特别敏感的人,因此特别容易成为依赖吸烟者。
Sensation-seeking scores in female (n = 36) and male (n = 60) French smokers were compared with those for a control group of female (n = 23) and male (n = 45) nonsmokers. The findings clearly show that smokers of both sexes are higher in sensation seeking than their nonsmoking counterparts: they score higher on the Disinhibition, Experience Seeking, and Boredom Susceptibility components of sensation seeking. Smoking women were particularly high on Experience Seeking. The relationships among the sensation-seeking components, nicotine dependence, and motives for smoking were assessed in the smokers. Disinhibition and Experience Seeking moderately correlated with nicotine dependence in females, as assessed by the Fagerstrom questionnaire and the Addictive factor of the Russell Classification of Smoking by Motives. Women high in Experience Seeking may be at particular risk for smoking and possibly for dependence. Further research is needed to state that the high sensation seeker is a person who might be expected to be particularly sensitive to the stimulating reward of smoking, and thus particularly vulnerable to becoming a dependent smoker.
