TRPs are the standard media buying metric for television advertisements. TRPs were divided by 2,000 so that the OR is an estimate of the effect of an increase of 2,000 TRPs.
The heaviness of smoking index incorporates the number of cigarettes smoked per day and how soon after waking a cigarette is smoked. A higher index implies higher nicotine dependence.
Yearly time trend is a linear variable.
