TABLE 4—
Adjusted Income and Price Elasticity Coefficients for the Household Consumption of SSBs: Household Budget Survey–Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, Brazil, 2002–2003
| Household Strata |
|||
| Variables | All Income Quartiles | First Income Quartile | Second, Third, and Fourth Income Quartiles |
| Monthly per capita income, R$ | 0.41 | 0.43 | 0.22 |
| Price of SSBs, R$/1000 cal | −0.85 | −1.03 | −0.63 |
| R2 | 0.76 | 0.58 | 0.59 |
Note. SSB = sugar-sweetened beverage. All regression coefficients are statistically significant (P < .05). We adjusted coefficients for geographic region and urban or rural status of the household stratum, proportion of members aged ≥ 65 years, and mean price of the set of foods and beverages complementary to SSBs. We obtained price elasticity coefficients in 3 separate log–log linear regression models.
