Objective: To characterize the population enrolled in a smoking treatment program and to identify the emotional factors associated with smoking. Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out in 2016 using secondary data extracted from the records of a smoking treatment program in the municipality of Água Clara, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. The data analyzed refer to 173 participants who had undergone the initial interview of the program from January 2012 to September 2015. The following variables were studied: gender, age, smoking history, degree of nicotine dependence, emotional factors and other health-disease conditions. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and the association between the degree of dependence and emotional factors was analyzed using Fisher’s exact test. Results: There was a predominance of women (63.6%, n=110), with a mean age of 45.99 years, mean age of onset of smoking of 14.38 years and mean time of cigarette use of 31.62 years. Of the symptoms presented, emotional disorders were predominant (75.1%, n=130), with a 38.2% (66) rate of depression. Regarding the degree of nicotine dependence, 68.2% of the participants presented high or very high levels, with an association between high and very high levels of dependence and emotional factors such as anxiety and depression (p<0.05). Conclusion: The program participants are adult women with a long time of cigarette use and consequently compromised health. There was an association between emotional factors and a greater degree of nicotine dependence.Downloads
