Note. N = 1365. Correlations among continuous variables are Pearson correlation coefficients. Correlations between continuous and dichotomous variables are point-biserial correlation coefficients. Correlations among dichotomous variables are Spearman rho coefficients. FTND = Fagerström Test of Nicotine Dependence.
