We investigated the effects of exposure to environmental smoking-related cues (holding a lit cigarette in an environment previously associated with smoking) on cigarette craving, colour naming of smoking-related words in a modified Stroop task, and on the delay discounting of hypothetical rewards, in daily cigarette smokers (N = 30). Compared to exposure to neutral cues, exposure to smoking-related cues was associated with increased cigarette craving and slower colour naming of smoking-related compared to matched control words. However, smoking cues had no effect on delay discounting. These results suggest that smoking cues increase craving and the ability of smoking-related words to grab the attention, but do not influence impulsive decision-making. Theoretical and clinical implications are discussed.
我们对30名每日吸烟者进行了研究，调查暴露于与环境吸烟相关的线索（在先前与吸烟相关的环境中手持点燃的香烟）对香烟渴望、改良斯特鲁普任务中与吸烟相关词语的颜色命名以及假设奖励的延迟折扣的影响。与暴露于中性线索相比，暴露于与吸烟相关的线索会导致香烟渴望增加，并且与匹配的对照词相比，与吸烟相关词语的颜色命名更慢。然而，吸烟线索对延迟折扣没有影响。这些结果表明，吸烟线索会增加渴望以及与吸烟相关词语吸引注意力的能力，但不会影响冲动决策。我们还讨论了其理论和临床意义。
