REGRESSION
Multinomial logistic regression with “sex” as moderating variable was calculated with cessation as dependent and “age”, “degree of education”, “primary healthcare utilization”, “social support”, “moods”, and “QoL” as predictor variables. The overall the model was significant (Being woman was associated with lower perceived family support for diet changes within all groups (very early, early, and late cessation groups). For women lower likelihood of taking medication or supplements was observed in very early cessation group (group1) and for men in early cessation group (group 2). Further, only for men in very early cessation group (group 1) lower perceived environmental QoL was observed and only for women in early cessation group (group 2). Results and parameter estimates for variables associated with different group memberships are summarized in Table
