Unweighted N for initiation model = 15 280; unweighted N for progression model = 26 998; 95% confidence intervals are in parentheses; all models also include all covariates included in Table 2 (not shown): sex, race/ethnicity, parental education, census region, % workplaces and hospitality venues covered by smoke-free laws are measured at the county level, % of state that is African American/Black, Hispanic, and below poverty. Model 1 includes only the interaction for sex, Model 2 only includes the interaction for race/ethnicity, and Model 3 only includes the interaction for parental education. Initiation analyses examined past 30-day smoking among baseline never smokers; progression analyses examined daily smoking among baseline never, previous, and nondaily smokers.
