Note. aFTND = Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (Heatherton et al., 1991).
Primary Dependence Motives scale = mean of Automaticity, Loss of Control, Craving, and Tolerance.
Secondary Dependence Motives scale = mean of Affiliative Attachment, Behavioral Choice/Melioration, Cognitive Enhancement, Cue Exposure/Associative Processes, Affective Enhancement, Social/Environmental Goads, Taste, and Weight Control.
WISDM total score = mean of 13 WISDM subscale scores.
