Table 3:
The Interaction between Gender and Same-Day Motivation and NRT Adherence
| Amount short-acting NRT | Adherent patch (16 hrs) | Adherent cNRT (16 hrs; 8 doses) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed effects (Same-day) | b (SE) | OR (95% CI) | OR (95% CI) |
| Intercept | 4.25 (3.42) | 2.90 (0.01, 737.91) | 0.03 (0.00, 3.45) |
| Female | −2.74* (1.23) | 1.23 (0.26, 5.84) | 0.16* (0.03, 0.92) |
| Motivation (day-level) | −0.34 (0.18) | 0.77 (0.51, 1.17) | 0.96 (0.75, 1.22) |

All models adjust for FTND total scores (Fagerström test for nicotine dependence), same-day # cigarettes smoked, intervention status, race, marital status, children, and education; Having children was significantly associated with daily use of amount short-acting NRT and daily adherence to cNRT (16 hrs; 8 doses). Sensitivity analyses including random effects for same-day motivation did not change the reported findings.
