Anxiety sensitivity and smoking outcome expectancies among Spanish-speaking Latinx adult smokers.
Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology 2019 March 22
Smoking is among the most important health behaviors linked to premature death and disability among the Latinx population. Yet there is limited understanding of whether transdiagnostic factors like anxiety sensitivity may help explain smoking expectancies among Spanish-speaking Latinx smokers. The present investigation evaluated anxiety sensitivity in regard to smoking outcome expectancy factors among a large sample of adult Latinx smokers. Participants were 363 Spanish-speaking Latinx daily smokers (58.7% female, Mage = 33.3 years, SD = 9.8). As expected, anxiety sensitivity was significantly related to expectancies of negative reinforcement and negative personal consequences. Anxiety sensitivity also was a significant predictor of smoking expectancies of appetite control and positive reinforcement. The present study provides novel empirical evidence that anxiety sensitivity explains a notable degree of variance in smoking outcome expectancies over the variance accounted for by a range of theoretically relevant covariates among Latinx smokers. These results highlight the clinical utility in assessing anxiety sensitivity among Latinx smokers and focusing greater attention on this construct in efforts to better understand cognitive-based smoking expectancies among this population.
