尽管大多数吸烟者都表现出烟草依赖的迹象。这一群体的一个子集，被称为烟草削片者，没有表现出依赖的特征迹象。很少有研究试图描述这两组吸烟者之间的差异，本研究的目的是检查吸烟者（CH）和依赖吸烟者（DS）的吸烟地形。在实验室和自然条件下，研究了7个CH和7个DS的地形变量，包括吸烟次数和持续时间，以及吸烟间隔。唾液尼古丁，可替宁和硫氰酸盐。以及过期空气中的一氧化碳（GO）水平也进行了测量。结果表明，除了基于选择标准的预期外，CH和DS之间的吸烟地形没有差异。尽管两组之间在吸烟前后的CO和唾液可替宁水平上存在差异，但在这些测量上，吸烟前后的变化得分没有差异。需要在老年人中进行更多的研究，以完全确定CH和DS之间的差异。
Although most cigarette smokers exhibit signs of tobacco dependence. a subset of this population, referred to as tobacco chippers, does not show characteristic signs of dependence. Few studies have attempted to characterize differences between these groups of smokers, The purpose of the present study was to examine smoking topography in chippers (CH) and dependent smokers (DS). Topographical variables including puff number and duration, and intercigarette interval were examined in seven CH and seven DS under both laboratory and naturalistic conditions. Saliva nicotine, cotinine, and thiocyanate. as well as expired air carbon monoxide (GO) levels were also measured. The results indicate that there were no differences in smoking topography between CH and DS, except those that would be expected based on selection criteria. Although there were differences between groups on pre- and postsmoking CO and saliva cotinine levels, there were no differences in change scores from pre- to postsmoking on these measures. Additional studies will need to be done in older to completely characterize differences between CH and DS.
