bHaving smoked tobacco from a hookah in the last 30 days at least once.

cAll participants who did not state that they were definitely not planning on smoking hookah tobacco in the future.

dOnly hookah non-smokers were included in these analyses. The total n = 725 instead of 736 because 11 non-smokers had missing data for the susceptibility item.

eFor chi-square analyses.
