Note. WISDM-68 = Wisconsin Inventory of Smoking Dependence Motives; shown are nonstandardized linear and quadratic coefficients for smoking heaviness predicting each of the WISDM-68 13 subscales. Only cases with all available data on “smoking heaviness” were included in the analyses. Smoking heaviness = log [(no. cigarettes/day × 30 days) + 1].
