Multilevel models predicting hangover incidence and degree of hangover from prior-day number of cigarettes, number of drinks, and sex

Any hangover
Degree of hangover
Variable γ F Significance Odds ratio [95% CI] γ F Significance
Events ≥ 110 mg/dl eBAC
 Sex (male =1) -0.16 0.27 N.S. 0.85 [0.47, 1.56] 0.10 0.56 N.S.
 Number of drinks 0.32 65.29 p < .001 1.37 [1.27, 1.48] 0.15 115.56 p < .001
 Number of cigarettes 0.10 10.37 p < .01 1.10 [1.04, 1.17] 0.05 26.11 p < .001
Events 0 < eBAC < 110 mg/dl
 Sex (male =1) -0.15 0.18 N.S. 0.89 [0.42, 1.88] 0.07 2.50 N.S.
 Number of drinks 0.68 66.59 p < .001 1.98 [1.68, 2.34] 0.10 28.62 p < .001
 Number of cigarettes 0.08 3.28 p = .07 1.09 [0.99, 1.19] 0.03 3.24 p = .08

Notes: For events ≥ 110 mg/dl estimated blood alcohol concentration (eBAC), n = 1,272, approximate df= 1, 108 for sex, and approximate df= 1, 109 for number of drinks and number of cigarettes. For events where 0 < eBAC < 110 mg/dl, n = 385, approximate df= 1, 97 for sex, and approximate df= 1, 98 for number of drinks and number of cigarettes. n.s. = not significant.
