  • AOR = adjusted odds ratio; ICC = intraclass correlation coefficient; OMSC = Ottawa Model for Smoking Cessation.

  • a Controlling for clinic-level variance between clusters, patient sex, patient education, and self-reported anxiety or depression; based on inclusion of 15 clinics unless otherwise indicated.

  • b P < .01.

  • c P = .05.

  • d For ICC Clinician and ICC Clinic, the estimated G matrix was not a definite positive; therefore, we could not calculate clinician or clinic ICC.
