Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
At each wave and during the three weeks of EMA data collection the primary outcome variables will be the PBS: feelings of craving, cue-triggered wanting to smoke, nicotine dependence and behavioral mood and concentration symptoms. These outcomes will be measured by using well-validated questionnaires to measure the occurrence and development of PBS. The primary outcome variable for the EEG study will be the magnitude of the ERP components. ERPs of smoking cue-reactivity (P3 and LPP), non-drug reward sensitivity (P3, FRN and LPP) and impulse control (N2 and P3) will be measured. The primary outcome variable for the fMRI study will be the changes in brain functioning over time in specific brain regions of interest (ROIs) involved in smoking cue-reactivity, non-drug reward sensitivity and impulse control in novice smokers. Brain activity in ROIs of smoking cue-reactivity (NA, amygdala and ACC), non-drug reward sensitivity (NA and vmPFC) and impulse control (IFG, ACC and dlPFC) will be measured immediately after the EMA and once again two years later.
