Abstract
Background: This study investigated the factor structure of a measure of pain-smoking interrelations and expectancies (pain and smoking inventory (PSI)) and examined associations with risk factors for smoking maintenance among smokers with chronic pain (CP).
Method: Participants (n = 504; M age = 46 ± 13 years; 58% female) completed an online survey about health-related factors and smoking characteristics. Data were analyzed using Horn's parallel analysis (PA) and multiple linear regression.
Results: PA indicated that a single-dimension structure was the best fit for the PSI. Our regression model accounted for 34% of the variance in PSI score. The PSI was associated with younger age, higher education, poorer physical functioning, greater pain severity and pain intensity, higher psychological distress, greater nicotine dependence, lower self-efficacy and greater perceived difficulty quitting, and lifetime use of behavioral treatment for quitting smoking.
Conclusion: This research is the first step in identifying potential targets for smoking cessation approaches tailored to smokers with CP.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Behavioral Medicine (IJBM) is the official scientific journal of the International Society for Behavioral Medicine (ISBM). IJBM seeks to present the best theoretically-driven, evidence-based work in the field of behavioral medicine from around the globe. IJBM embraces multiple theoretical perspectives, research methodologies, groups of interest, and levels of analysis. The journal is interested in research across the broad spectrum of behavioral medicine, including health-behavior relationships, the prevention of illness and the promotion of health, the effects of illness on the self and others, the effectiveness of novel interventions, identification of biobehavioral mechanisms, and the influence of social factors on health. We welcome experimental, non-experimental, quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies as well as implementation and dissemination research, integrative reviews, and meta-analyses.
