To examine the acute effects of a guided relaxation routine (body scan) on desire to smoke and tobacco withdrawal symptoms in overnight abstinent smokers.
Experimental.
Thirty individuals reporting to smoke 10 or more cigarettes daily for at least 3 years.
Participants were assigned randomly to complete a 10-minute body scan (experimental group n = 15) or listen to a natural history passage for 10 minutes (control group n = 15).
Ratings of strength of desire to smoke and smoking withdrawal symptoms were assessed at baseline, immediately after the interventions, and 5, 10 and 15 minutes post-intervention.
There was a significant group x time interaction for strength of desire to smoke. The mean desire to smoke rating was significantly lower in the body scan group relative to the control group immediately after the intervention, and 5 minutes post-intervention. The body scan group also reported lower ratings of irritability, tension and restlessness, relative to the controls.
A brief body scan intervention reduces strength of desire to smoke and some tobacco withdrawal symptoms in temporarily abstaining smokers. The body scan may be beneficial as a technique for managing cigarette cravings and withdrawal.
研究引导式放松程序（身体扫描）对过夜戒烟者吸烟欲望和烟草戒断症状的急性影响。
实验性研究。
30名报告称每天吸烟10支或更多且至少持续3年的个体。
参与者被随机分配，分别完成10分钟的身体扫描（实验组，n = 15）或聆听10分钟的自然史文章（对照组，n = 15）。
在基线、干预结束后即刻、干预后5分钟、10分钟和15分钟评估吸烟欲望强度和吸烟戒断症状的评分。
吸烟欲望强度存在显著的组×时间交互作用。干预结束后即刻以及干预后5分钟，身体扫描组的平均吸烟欲望评分显著低于对照组。与对照组相比，身体扫描组报告的易怒、紧张和烦躁不安评分也较低。
简短的身体扫描干预可降低暂时戒烟者的吸烟欲望强度和一些烟草戒断症状。身体扫描作为一种管理香烟渴望和戒断的技术可能有益。
