Physical health among Hispanic adults: A test of nicotine use type
The Hispanic population in the United States (US) is an established tobacco and physical health disparities population. However, there has been limited study of this group in terms of type of nicotine product use and health status. The current investigation builds from limited past work to explore differences in physical health status, somatic symptom severity, and medical conditions between Hispanic adults who exclusively use combustible cigaret…
Smoking as a Marker of Comorbid Vulnerability Among Persons with Probable Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Who Engage in Hazardous Drinking
Background: Persons with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to those without evince high rates of hazardous drinking, or patterns of alcohol consumption that increase the risk for harmful consequences. One potential marker of vulnerability for PTSD-hazardous drinking comorbidity may be smoking behavior. Individuals with PTSD have a higher prevalence of smoking and smoke at higher rates. Smokers, compared to nonsmokers, are more apt to …
Pain Interference and Intensity in Relation to Abstinence Outcomes Following a One-Session Personalized Feedback Smoking Cessation Digital-Intervention
Background: Pain is a highly common and costly health problem that is strongly linked to cigarette smoking. Pain interference, the degree to which pain impedes physical, occupational, recreational, and social functioning, may have an important role in terms of smoking cessation. However, no study has examined the role of pain interference as a predictor of relapse following a quit attempt in a smoking cessation trial. Objectives: The current stud…
Covid-19 Worry and Smoking Abstinence Expectancies Among Hispanic Individuals Who Smoke
Neighborhood Vigilance in Terms of Abstinence Expectancies for Smoking and Severity of Problems When Quitting
Background: Although social determinants of health (SDoH) have increasingly been understood as clinically important factors in the onset, maintenance, and relapse of substance use behavior, little research has evaluated neighborhood vigilance in terms of smoking. Objectives: The present investigation sought to evaluate the role of neighborhood vigilance in terms of smoking abstinence expectancies (i.e., perceived consequences of refraining from s…
Negative emotional reactivity to racial/ethnic stress among Black adults who smoke
Black/African American (hereafter, Black) adults who smoke are at risk for tobacco-related health disparities in the United States (US). Although racial-based stressors (e.g., discrimination) are associated with smoking among this group, past work has not characterized individual differences in negative emotional reactivity to racial/ethnic stress in terms of smoking. The present investigation sought to address this limitation and evaluate the in…
Combustible cigarette smokers versus dual combustible and electronic users: Evaluation of differences in anxiety, depression, and transdiagnostic constructs among Latinx adults
Research on dual combustible and electronic nicotine use among Latinx persons is needed to better understand patterns of use because this group is an established tobacco disparities population. Negative emotional symptoms and related processes (e.g., reactive transdiagnostic vulnerabilities) have been among the most prominent factors linked to the onset, maintenance, and relapse of smoking. As such, the current study sought to compare levels of m…
Covid-19 worry and smoking processes among Hispanic persons in the United States
Hispanic persons in the United States (US) experienced a disproportionate proportion of adverse health consequences during the pandemic and are a well-established tobacco disparities population. The tendency to worry is one individual difference cognitive-affective construct that is important to smoking behavior and stress-related experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there is limited understanding of COVID-19 worry in terms of smoki…
Perceived Racial/Ethnic Discrimination and Smoking Outcome Expectancies among Adult Latinx Smokers Living in the United States
Background: Smoking-related health disparities are prevalent in the Latinx community in the United States (US). Although Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) are known to contribute to a myriad of health problems among the Latinx population, there is relatively limited work expressly aimed at elucidating SDoH among Latinx smokers. Perceived racial/ethnic discrimination is one SDoH construct that may be especially relevant to understanding smoking…
Anxiety Sensitivity Among Non-Hispanic Black Adults: Relations to Mental Health and Psychosomatic States
Latinx Individuals Who Smoke Daily with and without a Probable Anxiety Disorder: Differences in Smoking Behavior and Beliefs about Abstinence
There is a well-established relation between anxiety psychopathology and smoking in the general population. However, little work focuses on Latinx/Hispanic (hereafter Latinx) persons who smoke from this comorbidity perspective. The present investigation aimed to explore differences among English-speaking Latinx adults who live in the United States (US) and smoke cigarettes with and without a probable anxiety disorder in terms of cigarette depende…
Anxiety symptoms and anxiety sensitivity in relation to cigarette dependence, perceived barriers for smoking cessation and quit problems among adult Latinx smokers
Cigarette smoking is associated with adverse physical and mental health among Latinx adults in the United States. The present investigation sought to explore the main and interactive effects of anxiety symptoms and anxiety sensitivity in relation to cigarette dependence, perceived barriers for smoking cessation, and severity of problems experienced when quitting among adult Latinx smokers. Participants included 338 Latinx adult daily cigarette sm…
Differences in smoking behavior and beliefs about abstinence among Latinx individuals with and without depression who smoke cigarettes
There is a well-established relation between depression and smoking in the general population. However, past work focused on Latinx persons who smoke in relation to depressed affect has yielded inconsistent findings. The present investigation aimed to build on past research and evaluate differences among English-speaking Latinx adults who smoke combustible cigarettes with and without probable depression in terms of cigarette dependence, perceived…
Differences in Pain Severity and Interference between Latinx Combustible Cigarette Smokers and Dual Users with Current Pain
Latinx individuals who smoke represent a tobacco health disparities group. Yet, limited research has focused on examining dual combustible and electronic cigarette use among Latinx populations. Importantly, Latinx persons who smoke also evince elevated rates of pain problems and symptoms and prior research has consistently linked pain problems and severity to smoking prevalence, maintenance, and behavior. Accordingly, the current study sought to …
