The current study investigates effects of a brief mindfulness-based instruction set, based on Marlatt's "urge surfing" technique (Marlatt & Gordon, 1985), on smoking-related urges and behavior. Undergraduate smokers (N = 123) who were interested in changing their smoking, but not currently involved in a cessation program, participated in a cue exposure paradigm designed to elicit urges to smoke. They were randomly assigned either to a group receiving brief mindfulness-based instructions or to a no-instruction control group. Results suggest that groups did not differ significantly on measures of urges. However, those in the mindfulness group smoked significantly fewer cigarettes over a 7-day follow-up period as compared to those in the control group. These findings suggest that the mindfulness techniques may not initially reduce urges to smoke but may change the response to urges. The study provides preliminary data for future studies examining both mechanisms and effectiveness of mindfulness-based interventions for cigarette smoking.
本研究考察了基于 Marlatt 的“冲动冲浪”技术（Marlatt & Gordon, 1985）的简短正念指导对吸烟相关冲动和行为的影响。有意愿改变吸烟习惯但目前未参加戒烟计划的本科生吸烟者（N = 123）参与了旨在引发吸烟冲动的线索暴露范式。他们被随机分配到接受简短正念指导的组或无指导的对照组。结果表明，两组在冲动测量上没有显著差异。然而，与对照组相比，正念组在 7 天的随访期间吸烟量显著减少。这些发现表明，正念技术可能不会立即减少吸烟冲动，但可能会改变对冲动的反应。该研究为未来研究提供了初步数据，这些研究将检验正念干预对吸烟的机制和有效性。
