Adjusted for gender and age of child, and mother's education level.

Odds ratios derived from multilevel logistic regression analyses, 95 % confidence intervals and P values.

†Stratified analyses were carried out based on the interactions found (see Table 3) between family-environmental factors and whether the country serves a free school lunch (Germany and the Netherlands offer no free school lunches, whereas Finland and Sweden do).
