We examine and refine the Fagerström Tolerance Questionnaire (FTQ: Fagerström, 1978). The relation between each FTQ item and biochemical measures of heaviness of smoking was examined in 254 smokers. We found that the nicotine rating item and the inhalation item were unrelated to any of our biochemical measures and these two items were primary contributors to psychometric deficiencies in the FTQ. We also found that a revised scoring of time to the first cigarette of the day (TTF) and number of cigarettes smoked per day (CPD) improved the scale. We present a revision of the FTQ: the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND).
我们对法格斯特罗姆耐受问卷(FTQ:法格斯特罗姆,1978年)进行了检查和完善。在254名吸烟者中,研究了FTQ每个项目与吸烟严重程度生化指标之间的关系。我们发现,尼古丁评分项目和吸入项目与我们的任何生化指标均无关联,并且这两个项目是FTQ心理测量缺陷的主要原因。我们还发现,对每日第一支烟的时间(TTF)和每日吸烟量(CPD)的评分进行修订后,该量表得到了改进。我们提出了FTQ的修订版:法格斯特罗姆尼古丁依赖测试(FTND)。
