Prediction of attitude/belief variable by smoking‐relatedness 1–3, or was assessed using logistic or linear regression controlling for 4 demographic and 3 smoking variables that were associated with level of smoking‐relatedness (see Table 1).

N’s range from 353 to 357 due to missing observations for 4 predictors.
