Multiple predictor HLM model including level one and level two covariates. Non-significant variables were pruned from the model. SE=Standard Error. OR=Odds Ratio. 95%CI=confidence interval.

a

Random coefficient. All other predictors were treated as fixed to facilitate model parsimony and convergence.

b

Baseline nicotine dependence measured by the total score on the WISDM-68. Similar results are obtained using the FTND total score (temptation vs. abstinent: coefficient=0.22, SE=0.09, OR=1.24, 95% CI [1.02-1.50], t(105)=2.28, p=.02; smoking vs. temptation: coefficient=0.02, SE=0.09, OR=1.02, 95% CI [0.85-1.22], t(105)=0.24, p=.80).
