Table 5.

Odds of tobacco marketing awareness change in Australia between consecutive survey waves and across all waves. GEE multivariate logistic regression analyses adjusted for age, gender, minority group, and the heaviness of smoking index. Statistically significant differences in odds ratios between Australia and the UK are indicated with asterisks.
