Association between food insecurity, lack of diet diversity and depression among low-income adults in the USA: odds ratios (OR) and standard errors (se)

Model 1 P-values Model 2 P-values Model 3 P-values
Simple logistic regression unadjusted associations Simple logistic regression unadjusted associations Multiple logistic regression adjusted associations
Food Security (scores 0–10) 1·10 0·03 0·002 1·10 0·04 0·007
Lack of diet diversity 1·05 1·61 0·975 1·08 1·66 0·961
Archer–Lemeshow (F-adjusted statistic) F-adjusted test statistic: F (3,13) = 6·280; P = 0·007 F-adjusted test statistic: F (9,7) = 6·749; P = 0·010 F-adjusted test statistic: F (9,7) = 1·862; P = 0·212

Model 3 is adjusted for sex, age, race/ethnicity, BMI, marital status, citizenship status, education attainment, household income, employment status, homeownership and vitamin D. Model 4 is not shown here. Archer–Lemeshow (F-adjusted statistic): Goodness-of-fit test for logistic regression model fitted using survey data. It tests the null hypothesis that the fitted model is correct. Higher values of P-values indicate a better fit.
