dc.description.abstractWhile cigarette smokers reportedly cite multiple motives for smoking addiction, stress and negative affect are among the most significant motives for smoking addiction. As negative affect and nicotine addiction are known to affect cognition, we explored the relationship between cognitive enhancement as a motive for smoking addiction and subsequent smoking topography and reported NA. We hypothesized that since increased stress and NA lead to increased smoking and impairment of cognition, there would be a positive correlation between citing cognitive enhancement as a motive for cigarette smoking and increased NA and stress-related smoking topography.
