RD = Risk Difference, i.e. difference in prevalence across time; CI = confidence interval

a

All prevalence estimates incorporate sampling weights to represent US population of current smokers between ages 18–54 years old.

b

The sample assessed for PTSD in 1990 and 2010 is slightly smaller: Male 1990 N=631, Female 1990 N=679, Male 2001 N=599, Female 2001 N=552

c

Any Anxiety includes panic attack, panic disorder, PTSD, social phobia, specific phobia, GAD; Any Depression includes MDD, Dysthymia, Bipolar I or II

d

p-value is for test assessing gender by time interaction indicating difference in RDs
