尼古丁依赖（FTND）管理的样本749成人吸烟者。将重度吸烟指数（HSI）与FTND进行比较，该指数结合了FTND的两个项目（每天吸烟数量和每天第一支烟的时间）。HSI的临界评分等于或大于4检测到的尼古丁依赖率与FTND的临界评分等于或大于6相似。HSI的敏感性为79.5%，特异性为96.5%。两种仪器之间的一致性很高（Cohen's kappa=0.74）。HSI在男性和女性身上的表现一样好。HSI提供了一个很好的衡量高度尼古丁依赖的指标，特别适合流行病学调查。(c)2005爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Nicotine Dependence (FTND) was administered to a sample of 749 adult smokers. The Heavy Smoking Index (HSI) which combines two items of the FTND (the number of cigarettes per day and the time of the first cigarette of the day) was compared to the FTND. A cut-off score equal or greater than 4 on the HSI detected a similar rate of nicotine dependence as a cut-off score equal or greater than 6 on the FTND. HSI had good sensitivity (79.5%) and specificity (96.5%). The concordance between the two instruments was high (Cohen's kappa=0.74). The HSI performed as well on men as on women. The HSI provides a good measure of high nicotine dependence, particularly appropriate for epidemiological surveys. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
