To examine the extent to which a effect does exist between Positivity (POS), smoking and socio-demographic factors in determining quitting smoking in subjects participating in a Group Counselling Program (GCP) for smoking cessation.
481 subjects were contacted through a telephone call. A logistic regression analysis was carried out. Possible interaction between sociodemographic variables and POS level was tested using the Synergism Index (SI).
For individuals with a POS level over or equal to 3.4 the odds of being smoker was significantly higher among females (OR = 1.55), who smoked at home (OR = 2.16) and lower if there had children at home (OR = 0.53). For individuals with a POS level under 3.4, the only significant variable associated with smoking was beinga female (OR = 2.58). As far concerns the synergistic effect between the variables considered does exist between POS levels and having children at home (SI=1.13) and female gender (SI = 2.8).
The synergistic effect between POS and sociodemographic factors adds evidence on the use of POS as possible determinants of individual happiness.
探讨在参加戒烟团体咨询项目（GCP）的受试者中，积极性（POS）、吸烟与社会人口学因素在决定戒烟方面存在的影响程度。
通过电话联系了481名受试者。进行了逻辑回归分析。使用协同指数（SI）测试社会人口学变量与POS水平之间可能存在的相互作用。
对于POS水平等于或高于3.4的个体，女性（OR = 1.55）、在家吸烟的人（OR = 2.16）吸烟的几率显著更高，而家中有孩子的人吸烟几率更低（OR = 0.53）。对于POS水平低于3.4的个体，与吸烟相关的唯一显著变量是女性（OR = 2.58）。就所考虑的变量之间的协同效应而言，POS水平与家中有孩子（SI = 1.13）以及女性性别（SI = 2.8）之间确实存在协同效应。
POS与社会人口学因素之间的协同效应为将POS用作个体幸福感的可能决定因素提供了更多证据。
