This article focuses on measures used to assess smoking patterns and motives. Self-report typology scales demonstrate a remarkably stable factor structure and good reliability. However, self-monitoring studies suggest that typology scales do not accurately assess smoking patterns and do not provide a good basis for treatment planning. Nevertheless, typology scores are correlated with variables such as smoking rate, craving, and cessation outcomes. These correlations may largely be accounted for by a common underlying factor, here labeled smoking drive, which may serve as a measure of dependence. Finally, the article briefly introduces new methods for assessing smoking patterns using palmtop computers to track smoking and other stimuli in real time. These methods may provide more valid assessment of smoking patterns.
