“…The present study found that 42.2% of smokers were in low and medium dependence group and 57.8% were highly dependent to nicotine, which is contradictory to the findings of Clemente Jiménez et al . [ 9 ] who found that 86.6% of smokers were low to moderately dependent to nicotine and only 3.3% of smokers were highly dependent to tobacco. This is probably due to, the inclusion of only teenage smokers in their study and the present study revealed that increase in age was significantly and positively correlated with FTND score.…”

Background:Tobacco kills half of its users, with smoking and smokeless tobacco killing nearly 6 million people worldwide – one death every 6 s in each year. Use of tobacco over time causes a physical and psychological addiction due to the presence of nicotine. To find out the level of nicotine dependence among adult (18 years and above) tobacco users and the factors responsible for it.Materials and Methods:A cross-sectional community-based study was conducted among 128 current tobacco users in an urban slum of Burdwan District, West Bengal, India. Study tools comprised of predesigned, pretested, semi-structured schedule, containing Fagerström test for nicotine dependence (FTND) questionnaire. Data were collected by interview after getting consent from the participants. Chi-square test, unpaired student t-test, ANOVA, correlation coefficient, and linear regression was calculated. SPSS software (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences Inc, Chicago, IL, USA). was used for analysis.Results:High level of nicotine dependence was maximally seen among increased in age group, prolonged duration of use and daily users. Age, duration of tobacco use and habit of tobacco use had a significant positive correlation with FTND score while starting age of tobacco had a significant negative correlation. Then in multivariable linear regression, starting age of tobacco use, habit of tobacco use and duration of tobacco use emerged as a significant predictor of FTND score and could explain 27.3% of total variation in FTND score.Conclusions:Suitable plan for quitting may be developed based on the FTND score of an individual, the most important determinant of quitting.

“…En este estudio la prevalencia de dependencia a la nicotina fue de 1,8 %; estos datos difieren de los hallados por Clemente-Jiménez y otros quienes identificaron en escolares entre 10 y 17 años, utilizando el test de Fagerström, que el 86,6 % (529/611) de los fumadores tenían dependencia a la nicotínica (6).…”

“…An ad hoc questionnaire was designed. This was adapted from different sources, including a previous study from Zaragoza (Spain) on nicotine dependence among school students who were active smokers ( 22 ) and surveys from the annual activities (2010 to 2016) of the “smoke-free week” promoted by the Spanish Society of Family and Community Medicine ( 23 , 24 ). The final questionnaire included a section with general aspects on age, sex, school year, being a repeater or not of any academic year, the student’s cigarette smoking history, attitudes towards cigarette smoking, and alcohol consumption, and a second section with questions related to passive cigarette smoking.…”

IntroductionCigarette smoking is a significant public health problem, and it is essential to work actively with young people to limit the incorporation of this addiction. This study aimed to identify characteristics associated with tobacco use in adolescents in a real setting.MethodsEpidemiologic, cross-sectional study including secondary school students aged 12–17 years in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grades of “Joan Fuster High School” in the city of Sueca, Valencia (Spain). An anonymous, self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data on demographics, cigarette smoking history, alcohol consumption, nicotine dependence, and exposure to parental cigarette smoking.ResultsThe final sample of individuals surveyed included 306 students (50.6% females) with a median age of 13 years. The prevalence of cigarette smoking was 11.8% (13.5% in females and 9.9% in males). The mean age of cigarette smoking onset was 12.7 ± 1.6 years. Ninety-three students (30.4%) were repeaters, and 114 (37.3%) reported alcohol consumption. Significant factors associated with tobacco use were being a repeater (odds ratio [OR] 4.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.75–10.55, p = 0.002), alcohol consumption (OR 4.06, 95% CI 1.75–10.15, p = 0.002) and parental cigarette smoking (OR 3.76, 95% CI 1.52–10.74, p = 0.007).DiscussionAn operational profile of features associated with tobacco consumption was identified in the presence of parental cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor academic performance. Consideration of these factors could be useful in the operational design of cigarette smoking cessation interventions for young people in a context where there is a great need for better prevention and control of cigarette smoking.
