,_WQKING BEHAVIOR:
MOTIVES AND
INCENTIVES
EDITOR:
WI LLIAM L. DUNN, JR.
A highly distinguished group of behavioral
scientists addresses itself to the issue that, despite
a decade of dissuasion, 35%'0 of the American
adults continue to seek the gratificationi of
smoking. Most tend to agree. that a pharmaco-
logical effect, probably mediated by nicotine, is
sought under conditions that have an emotional
meaning to the smoker. It is assumed! that the
emotional state is modulated or altered in some
positive manner and evidence is provided to
support this hypothesis. The authors attempt to
delineate the underlying mechanisms and processes
and offer, new and! intriguing ideas to explain why
people smoke.
