Tobacco smoking prevalence was 45.2%. Compared to non-smokers, those who smoked drank more days/week (mean=3.3, SD=2.0 vs mean=2.7, SD=1.8, p<0.01), had higher alcohol use disorders identification test (AUDIT) scores (mean=12.1, SD=7.6 vs mean=9.8, SD=7.1, p<0.05), were more likely to report current drug use (66.1% vs 48.3%, p<0.01), and had a greater number of (lifetime) drugs used (mean=3.0, SD=2.0 vs mean=2.0, SD=1.5 days, p<0.0001). Also, those who smoked reported greater levels of anxiety (mean=5.9, SD=5.6 vs mean=4.5, SD=4.9, p<0.05), lower confidence to not drink (mean=2.8, SD=0.8 vs mean=3.1, SD=1.0, p<0.01), lower confidence to reduce risky drinking (mean=6.3, SD=3.1 vs mean=7.3, SD=2.8, p<0.0001), greater drinking temptations (mean=3.0, SD=0.9 vs mean=2.6, SD=0.9, p<0.01), and, yet greater readiness to reduce alcohol use (mean=6.2, SD=3.0 vs mean=5.2, SD=3.0, p<0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Women who drink and smoke may have the highest AEP, TEP, and other SEP risk.
