Past and current smoking status, alcohol consumption, and coffee intake measured at study baseline in 1989.

Adjusted for age (continuous, years), BMI (continuous, kg/m2), physical activity (continuous, metabolic equivalents/week), hair color (red, blonde, light brown, dark brown, black), number of severe sunburns between ages 15 and 20 years (none, 1–2, 3–4, 5–9, 10+), mole count on lower legs (none, 1–2, 3–9, 10+), family history of melanoma ( yes/no), and chronic disease at baseline ( yes/no).

Past and current smoking was further adjusted for alcohol consumption (≥14 drinks per week at ages 15–17, 18–22, and 23–30 years; yes/no), coffee intake (≥6 cups per day, yes/no), and food addiction (yes/no). Alcohol consumption was further adjusted for smoking status (never, past, current), coffee intake, and food addiction. Coffee intake was further adjusted for alcohol consumption, smoking status, and food addiction.
