The purpose of this study is to examine whether microaggressions relate to multimodal facets of smoking behavior, subjective withdrawal, and urge/craving. Additionally, the second aim is to examine whether smoking deprivation moderates the relation between microaggressions and multiple facets of smoking behavior, subjective withdrawal, and urge/craving.
This proposal will employ a novel multi-modal approach to evaluate the role of microaggressions in relation to smoking lapse and topography among a sample of Latinx smokers. Adult Latinx daily smokers will attend two counterbalanced experimental sessions - (1) smoking deprivation (16 hours of smoking abstinence) and (2) smoking as usual - during which microaggressions during the relapse analog task will be assessed.
Inclusion Criteria: * Being 18 years of age or older * Current regular (daily) cigarette smoking for \>= 1 year * Current smoking \>= 5 cig/day and biochemically confirmed via carbon monoxide (CO) analysis * Being self-identified as Hispanic or Latino * Able to provide written, informed consent * Endorsement of at least one microaggression experience over the past 6-months Exclusion Criteria: * Endorsement of current psychotic symptoms * Active suicidality * Currently pregnant
Participants will engage in a microaggression recall task followed by the McKee Experimental Relapse Analogue Task
