^aAll models include NYTS-provided weights, stratification, design variables, male, race/ethnicity, age, living with a smoker, intention to smoke in the next year, likelihood to smoke a cigarette when offered from a friend, other tobacco use, and year (centered on 2009).

^bEver smoking was defined as ≥1 puff of a cigarette

^cCurrent smoking was defined as smoking cigarettes in the past 30 days
