Prob., probability of consumption; E%, percentage of total energy; SSB, sugar-sweetened beverages.
a,b,c,dProbabilities and mean values within a row with unlike superscript letters were significantly different (P < 0·001), as estimated from post hoc pairwise comparisons. P values for added sugar, foods and beverages were obtained from Box–Cox transformed models, physical activity from square root transformed models, and all others from normal models.
Data are presented as means and 95 % CI, as estimated from linear mixed models. Regression models contained main fixed effects of weekday (four levels), gender and age, and random effect of subject. Outcome variables of physical activity were transformed by square root transformation, food and beverage variables were transformed by logarithmic transformation. Back transformed estimates presented.
Probability of consumption as estimated from logistic regression. Regression model contained main effects of weekday (four levels), gender and age, and random effect of subject. Estimates and 95 % CI are back transformed from logit scale.
Logistic regression model failed to converge. Fixed effects of age and gender removed from model.
Logistic regression model failed to converge. Fixed effect of age removed from model.
Logistic regression model failed to converge. Model fitted without random effect and weekday as only explanatory variable.
