In the present study, we sought to establish a link between suicidal ideation (SI) and smoking in college students, determine whether psychopathology accounted for the association, and determine whether smoking expectancies were moderators. Participants ( = 607) were identified as nonsmokers, exsmokers, infrequent smokers, or daily smokers. Participants were assessed for smoking patterns, smoking expectancies, psychopathology, SI, and past suicide attempts. Daily smokers had the highest level of SI. There was a dose-response relationship between smoking and SI, such that the higher the daily smoking rate, the greater the SI, even when controlling for depression, alcohol use, and drug use. Trend-level results indicated that at lower smoking rates, elevated smoking-related negative affect reduction (NAR) expectancies were associated with lower SI, while elevated NAR expectancies in combination with higher smoking rates were associated with greater SI. Smoking cessation programs for college students should screen for SI.
在本研究中,我们试图在大学生中建立自杀意念 (SI) 和吸烟之间的联系,确定精神病理学是否解释了这种关联,以及吸烟期望是否起调节作用。参与者( = 607)被确定为非吸烟者、前吸烟者、偶尔吸烟者或每日吸烟者。对参与者进行了吸烟模式、吸烟期望、精神病理学、SI 和过去自杀企图的评估。每日吸烟者的 SI 水平最高。吸烟和 SI 之间存在剂量反应关系,即吸烟率越高,SI 越高,即使控制了抑郁、饮酒和吸毒。趋势水平的结果表明,在较低的吸烟率下,吸烟相关的负性情绪减轻(NAR)期望与较低的 SI 相关,而 NAR 期望升高与吸烟率升高相结合则与更高的 SI 相关。大学生的戒烟计划应筛查 SI。
