一项受欢迎的惩教政策是对囚犯实施禁烟令。虽然对这一人群的吸烟研究很少，但对其他人群的研究表明，戒烟后的高水平渴望与吸烟复发有关。本研究分析了人口统计学和吸烟史变量的关系，监禁时间的长度，和未来的意图吸烟释放后，目前需要吸烟在监狱囚犯。参与者是150名居住在无烟县监狱的男性囚犯，作为一项更大研究的一部分，他们接受了关于吸烟行为的深入采访。结果表明，未来吸烟的意图预测目前需要吸烟的囚犯，而在监狱里的时间长度没有。尼古丁依赖与当前吸烟需求或未来吸烟意图无关。这些发现与以前的囚犯吸烟研究一致，并对囚犯吸烟者有临床意义。(C)2003爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
A popular correctional policy has been the implementation of smoking bans for inmates. Although there is little cigarette smoking research with this population, research with other groups suggests that high levels of post-cessation cravings are associated with smoking relapse. The present study analyzed the relationship of demographic and smoking history variables, length of time incarcerated, and future intention to smoke upon release with current need to smoke in jail inmates. Participants were 150 male inmates housed in a smoke-free county jail who were intensively interviewed about smoking behavior as part of a larger study. Results indicated that stated future intention to smoke predicted current need to smoke in inmates, while length of time in jail did not. Nicotine dependence was not related either to the current need to smoke or future intention to smoke. These findings were consistent with previous inmate smoking research and have clinical implications for inmate smokers. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
