EVALUATION
A high ranking in one or both the questions in group one (1)
indicates that you use cigarettes for stimulation or extra
energy. You might smoke to help to stay awake or for a boost
of energy to complete a task. You may use them when your
body says it needs rest, but you have work to accomplish.
A high rating in group two (2) indicates that you use
smoking to help you to relax, whether it is physical,
mental, or both. You may use cigarettes during breaks at
work, after you have completed a difficult job, or when you
have that cup of coffee or alcoholic beverage.
High scores in group three (3) indicates that you use
smoking to deal with negative effects in your life. Smoking
gives you a lift when you become angry, depressed, tense or
anxious.
The questions in group four (4) reflect your psychological
dependencies. You are concerned that you will run out of
cigarettes before it happens and way before you have any
nicotine deprivation.
Group five (5) suggests that you have a chemical dependency.
If each of your answers was high in this group, it means
that without an occasional smoke, you begin to experience
withdrawal symptoms and occasionally fell a little
uncomfortable.
Group six (6) tells us that you use smoking to have
something to do with your hands when you are nervous or
uncomfortable, maybe in social situations, or something to
do when you are bored.
The different categories of questions in the quiz give a
great variety of reasons why people with different needs
smoke. Nicotine is an extremely powerful drug! It is more
addictive than heroin or cocaine. If you read the papers you
know cigarette manufacturers manipulate the amount of
nicotine in their cigarettes to provide a consistent flavor
and also to insure that you get the same dose with each
cigarette you light up.
