1

Plausible reporters were defined as subjects with energy intake:basal metabolic rate ratio ≥1.2; underreporters were defined as subjects with energy intake:basal metabolic rate ratio <1.2.

2

Model 1 shows results of multivariate linear regression adjusted for age, leisure-time physical activity, educational level, smoking, alcohol consumption, and dietary fiber.

3

Model 2 shows results adjusted for variables in model 1 in addition to energy intakes.
