Examining Bi-directional links between distinct affect states and tobacco lapse during a cessation attempt.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Theoretical models of addiction highlight the bi-directional links of certain distinct affect states and tobacco lapse, but to date, few studies have examined bi-directional associations, instead examining associations with global affect measures (e.g., negative affect versus feelings of guilt). The present study examines bi-directional associations among 23 distinct affect states with individuals who tobacco lapse among use attempting to quit in an observational study.

Design

Participants (N288, 49 = 288, 49 % female, aged 19-73, 51 % White, 14 % Black, 10 % Hispanic) were provided tobacco quit support and nicotine replacement therapy. Participants completed ecological momentary assessments (EMA) 4x a day for 10 days post-quit. EMAs assessed affect and lapse in n
