Vaping Media Literacy, Harm Perception, and Susceptibility of E-Cigarette Use Among Youth
2022, American Journal of Preventive MedicineStability of and change in substance use risk personality: Gender differences and smoking cigarettes among early adolescents
2021, Addictive Behaviors ReportsCitation Excerpt :Indeed, lifelong health behaviors and habits often begin in adolescence (Alberga, Sigal, Goldfield, Prud'homme, & Kenny, 2012; Degenhardt et al., 2008). A significant body of evidence shows that smoking cigarettes among adolescents is related to personality (Ali et al., 2016; Brook et al., 2008; Burt, Dinh, Peterson, & Sarason, 2000; Krank et al., 2011; Malmberg et al., 2013; Peterson & Smith, 2017; Pokhrel, Sussman, & Stacy, 2014; Quinn & Harden, 2013; Wellman et al., 2016; Woicik, Stewart, Pihl, & Conrod, 2009), supposing that personality is predictive for smoking behavior. Since especially persistent personality traits seemed to be related to future behavior, it is assumed that personality traits that remain stable over time would be more predictive for smoking behavior.
The Hip Hop peer crowd: An opportunity for intervention to reduce tobacco use among at-risk youth
2018, Addictive BehaviorsPerceptions of the Harm and Addictiveness of Conventional Cigarette Smoking Among Adolescent E-Cigarette Users
2018, Journal of Adolescent HealthCitation Excerpt :Our results suggest e-cigarette users' perception of the addictiveness of conventional cigarette smoking is weaker than that of nonusers. Second, e-cigarette users had higher levels of risk propensity and more peers who smoke cigarettes, both robust risk factors for cigarette smoking [38,39]. Finally, compared with nonusers, e-cigarette users reported less influence by antismoking ads.
Negative urgency and emotion regulation predict positive smoking expectancies in non-smoking youth
2016, Addictive BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :Two factors worth investigating in relation to positive smoking expectancies are impulsivity and emotion regulation, as both are associated with cigarette smoking (Bickel, Odum, & Madden, 1999; Morrell, Cohen, & McChargue, 2010). While impulsivity as a broad construct is associated with adolescent smoking (Burt, Dinh, Peterson, & Sarason, 2000; Mâsse & Tremblay, 1997), negative urgency—the tendency to act rashly in response to negative emotions (Cyders & Smith, 2008; Whiteside & Lynam, 2001)—is one of the most consistent impulsivity-related predictors of smoking behaviors and has been linked to smoking initiation, experimentation (Combs et al., 2011; Doran et al., 2013; Settles et al., 2012), and problematic substance use in adolescents (Settles, Cyders, & Smith, 2010; Stautz & Cooper, 2013). Emotion regulation—a multidimensional construct comprised of mechanisms responsible for monitoring, recognizing, and modifying emotional states (Aldao & Nolen-Hoeksema, 2010; Barkley & Fischer, 2010; Thompson, 1994)—also predicts adolescent smoking behaviors (Novak & Clayton, 2001; Weinstein, Mermelstein, Shiffman, & Flay, 2008; Wills, Walker, Mendoza, & Ainette, 2006), addiction onset, and treatment outcomes in youth and adults (see Cheetham, Allen, Yucel, & Lubman, 2010 for review).
