CORs = crude odds ratios; AORs = adjusted odds ratios.

aNCTP = Non-cigarette tobacco product. The analysis was conducted in a subsample (10923 students; 30 schools) of the whole sample (40202 students; 92 schools). Only the subsample had data on NCTP use.

bLow: 0–2.00%; medium: 2.07–4.07%; high: 4.10–12.57%.

cPer 1% increase was per unit increase in school-level past 30-day e-cigarette use prevalence (continuous; range 0–12.57).

dWith adjustment of age, sex, perceived family affluence, school-level past 30-day cigarette smoking prevalence (continuous), e-cigarette use status, and cigarette smoking status.
