Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Fagerstrom Test used for?
The Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence is a validated 6-question tool that estimates the severity of physical nicotine dependence, often used to help guide smoking cessation treatment planning.
How does it differ from the Heaviness of Smoking Index?
The Heaviness of Smoking Index is a shortened 2-question version using just the 2 most predictive items (time to first cigarette and cigarettes per day) from the full 6-question Fagerstrom Test.
What score suggests high dependence?
A score of 6 or higher is generally considered high to very high dependence, often associated with more intense withdrawal symptoms and potentially benefiting from more intensive cessation support, such as combination nicotine replacement therapy.
Is this calculator a substitute for medical advice?
No. This is an educational reference implementation of the standard Fagerstrom Test, not a substitute for guidance from a healthcare provider or smoking cessation program.
