Abstract:
Purpose 
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of different doses of nicotine on information processing speed in athletes and non-athletes.
Methods
Seventy-two male college students (36 athlete, 36 non-athletes; range age=18 to 24) were recruited from Kharazmi university to participate in the study. Their level of physical activity participation determined via a General Information Questionnaire. Each group of 36 male was randomly divided into three subgroups of 12 (4, 2 and 0 mg nicotine gum). This study was an experimental and applied. The data were collected using a choice reaction time vienna system. In addition to descriptive statistics, Univariate Analysis of Variance was‬used‬(α=0.05).
Results
The results show that there was no significant differences between choice reaction time means in terms of groups (P=0.353) or type of intervention (P=0.464), but only the interaction of factors (group*intervention) in both athletes and nonathletes was significant (P=0.050).
Conclusion
our results indicate that there were no differences between information processing speed of athletes and non-athletes before and after different doses of nicotine administration. It seems that variables such as psychohogical state of subjects during the test, fatigue and especially varied CNS responses to different doses of nicotine may leads to such different findings.
