Psychological and Temporal Perspectives Research Smoking Behavior and Cessation Health and Lifestyle Studies

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To examine associations between time perspective and smoking, body mass index, and exercise. METHODS: In this community-based survey, adults reported smoking and exercise habits and weight and height and completed the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory. RESULTS: Subjects (N=265) who were more future oriented reported more frequent exercise, but were more likely to smoke. Fatalistic and hedonistic present orientations were not associated with smoking, obesity, or exercise. CONCLUSIONS: Time perspective is not consistently associated with common health behaviors in adults.
