Impulsivity in adolescents using different forms of tobacco according to Barratt impulsivity scale 11
| Total impulsivity | Mild | Moderate | Severe | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cigarette smoking | Cigarette smoker (n = 22) | 51.62 ± 10.92 | 19 (86.36%) | 2 (9.09%) | 1 (4.55%) |
| Non-cigarette smoker (n = 28) | 53.04 ± 14.28 | 21 (75%) | 6 (21.43%) | 1 (3.57%) | |
| Test of significance |
t = 0.379 P = 0.707 (NS) |
