“…31 In addition, negative mood induction has been associated with shorter latency to smoke and greater puff volume in females as compared to males. 32,33 Taken together, these findings suggest that stressful cues or situations may make it difficult to resist smoking, and that this might be especially important for females.…”

IntroductionMost quit attempts end in relapse, 1 and there is evidence that female smokers have more difficulty quitting smoking than male smokers. [2][3][4] This gender difference has often been observed in clinical trials, 5,6 but population-based evidence for gender differences in quit success has been mixed. 7,8 An appeal for research identifying mechanisms related to these disparate cessation outcomes has been made in the smoking literature. 9 Craving, stress, and negative affect (NA) have been hypothesized as potential factors underlying gender differences in quit rates. 10Previous research has demonstrated gender differences in reactivity to cues presented in the laboratory setting. Saladin et al. 11conducted a laboratory-based study examining gender differences in response to smoking cues (holding and viewing a cigarette), stress cues (listening to a description of a recent life event that the participant identified as stressful), and neutral cues (holding and viewing a pack of pencils and an eraser while listening to a description Original investigation Gender Differences in Responses to AbstractIntroduction: Although the evidence is mixed, female smokers appear to have more difficulty quitting smoking than male smokers. Craving, stress, and negative affect have been hypothesized as potential factors underlying gender differences in quit rates. Methods: In the current study, the cue-reactivity paradigm was used to assess craving, stress, and negative affect in response to cues presented in the natural environment of cigarette smokers using ecological momentary assessment. Seventy-six daily smokers (42% female) responded to photographs (smoking, stress, and neutral) presented 4 times per day on an iPhone over the course of 2 weeks. Results: Both smoking and stress cues elicited stronger cigarette craving and stress responses compared to neutral cues. Compared with males, females reported higher levels of post-stress cue craving, stress, and negative affect, but response to smoking cues did not differ by gender. Discussion: Findings from this project were largely consistent with results from laboratory-based research and extend previous work by measuring response to cues in the natural environment of cigarette smokers. This study extends previous cue reactivity ecological momentary assessment research by using a new platform and by measuring response to stress cues outside of the laboratory. Findings from this project highlight the importance of addressing coping in response to stress cues in clinical settings, especially when working with female smokers.

“…Persons with BHCs have higher prevalence of tobacco use disorders, more severe nicotine dependence, and greater difficulty quitting smoking compared with persons without BHCs (1)(2)(3)(4). Spending up to 25% of their income on cigarettes (5) and consuming 44% of purchased cigarettes in the United States (6), adults with BHCs are affected disproportionately by tobacco-related diseases and die, on average, 25 years prematurely (7)(8)(9)(10)(11).…”

Objective: Individuals with behavioral health conditions (BHCs) smoke at high rates and have limited success with quitting, despite impressive gains in recent decades in reducing the overall prevalence of smoking in the United States. This study examined smoking disparities among individuals with BHCs within an integrated health care delivery system with convenient access to tobacco treatments. Methods:The sample consisted of patients in an integrated health care delivery system in 2010-a group (N=155,733) with one or more of the five most prevalent BHCs (depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, bipolar and related disorders, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder) and a group (N=155,733) without BHCs who were matched on age, sex, and medical home facility. The odds of smoking among patients with BHCs versus without BHCs were examined over four years using logistic regression generalized estimating equation models.Tobacco cessation medication utilization among a subset of smokers in 2010 was also examined.Results: Although smoking prevalence decreased from 2010 to 2013 overall, the likelihood of smoking decreased significantly more slowly among patients with BHCs compared with patients without BHCs (p,.001), most notably among patients with substance use and bipolar and related disorders. Tobacco cessation medication use was low, and smokers with BHCs were more likely than smokers without BHCs to utilize these products (6.2% versus 3.6%, p,.001). Conclusions:Smoking decreased more slowly among individuals with BHCs compared with individuals without BHCs, even within an integrated health care system, highlighting the need to prioritize smoking cessation within specialty behavioral health treatment.

“…The direction of causality indicates that there is a modest association between smoking and subsequent increases in psychological distress, including depressed mood (Carter, ven der Deen, Wilson, & Blakely, 2012). Those smokers who have unsuccessfully tried to quit also show very high levels of distress (Sung, Prochaska, Ong, Shi, & Max, 2011;van der Deen, Carter, Wilson, & Collings, 2011). The reason why smoking leads to poorer mental health is not immediately clear.…”
