Interaction between occupation category and time to first cigarette within 30 min of waking up	Adjusted OR	95% CI	p-value
Model I: Ever made a quit attempt^a
• Female nurses v. other women who smoke WITHIN 30 mins of waking up	3.1	(1.9, 5.1)	< 0.0001
• Female nurses v. other women who smoke AFTER 30 mins of waking up	1.1	(0.7, 1.6)	0.66
Model II: Made a quit attempt in the previous 12 months^b
• Female nurses v. other women who smoke WITHIN 30 mins of waking up	1.3	(0.9, 1.9)	0.11
• Female nurses v. other women who smoke AFTER 30 mins of waking up	0.69	(0.49, 0.98)	0.04
