BMI, body mass index; CI, credible interval; HDL, high density lipoprotein; OR, odds ratio; SD, standard deviation.

a All models except for empty model are adjusted for sex, age, occupational status, education, alcohol consumption, physical activity, body mass index, and co-morbid conditions (high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and low HDL and/or high triglyceride).

b Individual-level lack of reciprocity was group-mean centered in model 3.

c Company-level lack of reciprocity was defined as the proportion of the employees reporting lack of reciprocity within the company. The odds ratios associated with a one-standard deviation change in the company-level lack of reciprocity (11.2%) are shown.
