Dependent Variable
Predictor Desire to Quit Smoking (Dq) Aversion to Smoking (−Ds) Quit Efficacy (Eq)
B SE Prob B SE Prob B SE Prob
Gender .009 .034 .795 .085 .026 .001 −.078 .026 .002
Age Group .147 .035 <.001 .105 .027 <.001 −.213 .027 <.001
Warning (α) .026 .019 .174 .069 .015 <.001 −.002 .016 .915
Efficacy (Eq) −.180 .018 <.001 .025 .014 .076
Efficacy2 (Eq 2) −.024 .016 .139 −.002 .012 .887
Smoke Frequency (β) −.118 .037 .002 −.439 .029 <.001 −.617 .027 <.001

Note: Males were coded as 0 and females as 1; Age was coded as 0 for 18–24 and 1 for 25+; Smoke frequency was coded 1 for daily smokers and 0 for less often. B is the unstandardized coefficient, SE is the standard error, and Prob is the probability of null hypothesis.
