Group Variable Geometric Mean 95% CI Geometric Mean 95% CI Change,a %
Control Urine cotinine (ng/mL) 4.10 (3.29, 5.08) 3.68 (2.85, 4.69) −10.4
Coaching Urine cotinine (ng/mL) 4.14 (3.27, 5.18) 3.13 (2.48, 3.90) −24.4
Control Child TLFB report, cigarettes/d 2.21 (1.93, 2.52) 1.98 (1.70, 2.32) −10.2
Coaching Child TLFB report, cigarettes/d 2.45 (2.12, 2.84) 1.73 (1.55, 1.94) −29.3
Control Parent TLFB report, cigarettes/d 3.37 (2.62, 4.28) 1.67 (1.24, 2.17) −50.5
Coaching Parent TLFB report, cigarettes/d 3.42 (2.78, 4.17) 1.39 (1.02, 1.84) −59.2

The geometric mean of raw values (and 95% CI) is given as an indicator of central tendency for these variables, which, due to skew, were log transformed for analyses. TLFB = timeline follow-back.
