To examine the impact of baseline smoking dependence on postquit in-session ratings, which were administered during slide viewing every third slide, we examined the main effects of FTND, along with its interactions with valence, session, and EOT group status, separately for each of the in-session ratings, while covarying baseline in-session ratings. We found no main effects or interactions for any of the models involving FTND for any of the in-session ratings. Overall, these results suggest that increased nicotine dependence is associated with greater overall craving and negative mood ratings, though only at baseline.
