Table 1.

Hierarchical regression with percent tobacco choice (drug-seeking) or number of puffs consumed (drug-taking) as the dependent variables

Dependent variable Level Level 2 predictor R R 2 R 2 change F change p
Percent tobacco choice 1 3 BIS scales .20 .04 .04 1.28 .29
2 Uptake .52 .27 .23 26.46 .000*
Craving .46 .21 .17 18.55 .000*
Number of puffs consumed 1 3 BIS scales .14 .02 .02 .55 .65
2 Uptake .27 .07 .05 4.92 .03*
Craving .34 .12 .10 9.54 .003*

The three BIS impulsivity scales were predictors in level 1 (ns.). The level 2 predictors were either cigarettes per week (uptake) or smoking urges factor 1 (craving), and these predictors increased the proportion of variance accounted for significantly over the BIS scales. df—level 1 = 3,86 and level 2 = 1,85
