The role of mindful attention in regard to the relation between negative affect reduction outcome expectancies and emotional vulnerability among adult cigarette smokers
Open accessAbstract
The present investigation examined the role of mindful attention in regard to the relation between negative affect reduction smoking outcome expectancies and anxious arousal and anhedonic depression symptoms and difficulties with emotion regulation among 174 (46% women; Mage = 25.32 years, SD = 10.51) daily cigarette smokers. As predicted, there was a significant interaction for negative affect reduction smoking outcome expectancies and mindful attention in relation to anxious arousal symptoms and emotion regulation difficulties. Individuals endorsing both higher levels of negative affect reduction outcome expectancies and lower levels of mindful attention reported the greatest anxious arousal symptoms and difficulties with emotion regulation, while those reporting both lower levels of negative affect reduction expectancies and higher levels of mindful attention were associated with lesser anxious arousal symptoms and the least difficulties with emotion regulation. There was no interactive effect for anhedonic depression symptoms. Findings are discussed in relation to better understanding the clinically meaningful interplay between mindful attention and negative affect reduction outcome expectancies among cigarette smokers in terms of affective vulnerability.

Low levels of overall mindfulness have been found to correlate with higher levels of both anxious arousal and anhedonic depression symptoms in community samples.
“Low levels of overall mindfulness have been found to correlate with higher levels of both anxious arousal symptoms and anhedonic depression symptoms in community samples (Bernstein, Tanay, & Vujanovic, 2011; Gonzalez, Vujanovic, Johns, Leyro, & Zvolensky, 2009; Zovlensky et al., 2006).”

The Results (Descriptive Data and Correlations; page not provided) report that mindful attention was negatively related to both anxious arousal and anhedonic depressive symptoms. However, the study measured mindful attention—not overall mindfulness—in a sample of daily cigarette smokers, so it does not establish the claim for community samples generally. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
