Hostility and Impulsivity of Smokers among Korean Air Force Men

Objectives：This study investigated the independent risk of hostility and impulsivity of smokers in military populations, and examined risk differences among non -smokers, light smokers and heavy smokers. Subjects and Methods：A total of 550 airmen participated in this study. They completed questionnaires including demographic data, a smoking history, the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT), Dys-functional Impulsivity Scale (DIS), Buss &Durkee Hostility Inventory (BDHI), Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND), and the Nicotine Dependence Syndrome Scale (K-NDSS). Results：All of the subjects were male；550 individuals, with a mean age of 21.0±1.1. Most of them were single；512 people, 99.6%. 29.5% or 160 of the subjects were smokers. Demographics and smoking-related characteristics of non-smoker and smoker were similar. The mean differences of STAI (F= 3.379, P<0.05), DIS (F=8.186, P<0.001), and BDHI (F=10.332, P<0.001) between light smokers and heavy smokers were higher than that between non-smokers and light smokers. We found significant correlations between FTND and BDHI (r= 0.208, P<0.05), initiation (r=-0.260, P<0.01), duration (r= 0.206, P<0.05) and amount (r=0.546, P<0.001) among smokers. NDSS is related to BDHI (r=0.198, P<0.05), initiation (r= -0.280, P<0.001), duration (r=0.259, P<0.01) and amount (r=0.421, P<0.001). Conclusion：In this study, we found that there is a significant correlation between hostility and smoking status and nicotine dependence scales. Impulsivity has no relation with nicotine dependence scales, but was related to smoking status.
