Adjusted for those variables in the final model.

Variables are excluded in the final model in backward stepwise selection procedure, adjusted p ≥ .20.—Variable not entered in the model, bivariate association p ≥ .25. Subjective view of general health was measured by the Quality of Life Index–Brief Version. Nicotine dependence is measured by the Fagerstrom Test of Nicotine Dependence. Motivation to change is measured using the Stages of Change.
