[A study of behavior patterns between smokers and nonsmokers].

H S Kim

    Kanho Hakhoe Chi [The Journal of Nurses Academic Society]
    |April 1, 1990

    Summary

    Smokers and non-smokers exhibit significant differences in Type A behavior patterns, specifically Job-Involvement, Speed & Impatience, and Hard-Driving traits. However, the quantity and duration of smoking did not correlate with Type A behavior patterns.

    Area of Science:

    • Behavioral Medicine
    • Epidemiology
    • Cardiovascular Health

    Context:

    • Coronary heart disease (CHD) prevalence is linked to behavioral attributes and smoking.
    • Understanding these links is crucial for public health interventions.
    • Previous studies highlight associations between CHD risk factors and lifestyle.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the relationship between smoking status and Type A behavior patterns.
    • To identify specific behavioral components associated with smoking.
    • To inform targeted interventions for smoking cessation and CHD prevention.

    Summary:

    • A study surveyed 120 smokers and 90 non-smokers using a modified Jenkins Activity Survey (JAS).
    • Factor analysis identified three Type A behavior patterns: Job-Involvement, Speed & Impatience, and Hard-Driving.
    • Smokers significantly differed from non-smokers across all Type A components, though smoking quantity/duration showed no correlation.

    Impact:

    • Findings underscore the link between specific Type A behaviors and smoking, independent of consumption levels.
    • Highlights the need for tailored nursing interventions addressing Type A behaviors for smoking cessation.
    • Provides evidence for integrating behavioral modification into cardiovascular disease prevention strategies.
