Abbreviations: aOR: adjusted odds ratio; CI: confidence interval; GRPs: gross rating points; GED: general education degree. aFormer smokers were participants who reported smoking “every day” or “some days” (current smoking) in Spring 2014 and subsequently reported smoking “not at all” for at least one wave thereafter. bThe analysis was weighted to reflect age, sex, race/ethnicity, and education benchmark distributions among adult cigarette smokers from the National Health Interview Survey.
