Fagerstrom's Tolerance Questionnaire: clarification of item and scoring ambiguities
Abstract
Fagerstrom's Tolerance Questionnaire has often been used as a measure of physical dependence on nicotine. Inadequate delineation of scoring criteria has made reliability of scoring across users questionable. Standardized cutoffs and the correct translation of one item are presented with recommendations for future use.
