* All models were adjusted for receipt of a brief intervention and smoking risk status at baseline (for subjects with unhealthy alcohol use) and unhealthy alcohol use (for subjects with smoking). Reporting no unhealthy alcohol use/smoking less than 1 cigarette a day (favorable outcome) was coded 1 in the logistic regression model.

Unhealthy alcohol use was defined as drinking more than 21 drinks per week or drinking 6 drinks or more on a single occasion more often than once per month. Smoking was defined as smoking at least one cigarette per day.

For readiness, importance and confidence: low (1–4), medium (5–7), high (8–10), recoded from 1–10.
