Depressive symptoms and cigarette smoking among Latinos in San Francisco.

E J Pérez-Stable, G Marín, B V Marín and M H Katz

We administered the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D) Scale to 547 San Francisco Latinos as part of a random digit dialing telephone survey to evaluate smoking behavior. Both men and women current smokers had the highest mean CES-D levels (9.7 and 14.3, respectively). Logistic regression analysis adjusting for gender, acculturation, education, age, and employment showed that current smokers had an odds ratio of 1.7 (95% CI = 1.3, 2.2) for significant depressive symptoms compared to former smokers (OR = 1.1;95% CI = .8, 1.6) and never smokers (OR = 1).
