“…Novelty Seeking (NS), Harm Avoidance (HA), and Reward Dependence (RD) were assessed with the Junior Temperament and Character Inventory (Luby, Svrakic, McCallum, Przybeck, & Cloninger, 1999). Previous research indicates that some of these personality variables are predictive of drug use, including P (Conner et al, 2005;Sáiz et al, 2003), E (Merenäkk et al, 2003), and N (Florsheim et al, 2007). Research also supports predictive relationships between NS (Cloninger, Sigvardsson, & Bohman, 1988;Mâsse & Tremblay, 1997), HA (Cloninger et al, 1988;Tcheremissine, Lane, Cherek, & Pietras, 2003), and RD (Tcheremissine et al, 2003) and drug use in adolescence.…”

“…From a clinical perspective, it is useful to know that some craving assessments have been developed with samples of drug users who were not seeking treatment 22 or with samples restricted to inpatients 54 . Further, with only a few exceptions, 55 most instruments have been developed with adults. Craving instruments might be somewhat invariant across variations in contexts or groups of users, but there has been little systematic research on this issue.…”

Although drug craving has received considerable research attention over the past several decades, to date there has been no systematic review of the general clinical significance of craving. This paper presents an overview of measurement issues of particular relevance to a consideration of use of craving in clinical settings. The paper then considers the relevance of craving across a broad array of clinical domains, including diagnosis, prognostic utility, craving as an outcome measure, and the potential value of craving as a direct target of intervention. The paper is both descriptive and prescriptive, informed by the current state of the science on craving with recommendations for the definition of craving, assessment practices, future research, and clinical applications. We conclude that craving has considerable utility for diagnosis and as a clinical outcome, and that findings from future research will likely expand the clinical potential of the craving construct in the domains of prognosis and craving as a treatment target.

“…Two major methodological developments have had a major impact on modem craving research. First, the measurement of self-reported craving has advanced considerably over the past 20 years with the development of multiitem questionnaires that are highly reliable and very sensitive to fluctuations in craving over time (e.g., Florsheim et al, 2007;Heishman, Singelton, & Liguori, 2001;Tiffany & Drobes, 1991;Tiffany, Fields, Singleton, Haertzen, & Henningfield, 1995;Tiffany, Singleton, Haertzen, & Henningfield, 1993). The items on these questionnaires typically include ratings of statements of desire for a specific drug (e.g., "I have an urge for cocaine") but may cover other semantic content, including statements of intent and plans to use (e.g., "I will smoke as soon as possible"), anticipation of specific outcomes from drug use (e.g., "I would feel less depressed if I could drink now"), and difficulty controlling use (e.g., "It would be difficult to turn down a joint right this minute").…”

Craving is a core feature of drug addiction. It emerges early in the natural history of drug abuse disorders (e.g., O'Loughlin et al, 2003) and is experienced by the vast majority of drug-dependent individuals. For example, over 90% of daily cigarette smokers report having at least some craving when they have not smoked for a few hours (Tiffany, Warthen, & Goedeker, 2009). Clinicians who work with addicts know that craving is a central concern for their clients. Addicts worry and complain about craving while they are using, as they try to stop using, and even long after they have quit using drugs (Tiffany, 1990;Tiffany et al., 2009).Given the ubiquity and salience of craving in addictive disorders, it should be no surprise that there has been extensive research on craving. Indeed, craving research has exploded over the past 20 years, increasing 50-fold compared with the preceding 20 years (Tiffany et al., 2009). More recently, in the first half of the present decade (2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006) there have been more than 2,100 published research articles with the words crave or craving in their abstracts. This research includes studies on the assessment, prevalence, conelates, manipulation, neurobiology, conceptualization, and treatment of craving in both humans and animals. Craving unquestionably remains a major issue for addicts and researchers alike, with most convinced that a 83
