aIntakes based on second FFQ, conducted in 2007–2008. bPercentage differences: (FFQ1 − DR)/DR * 100 (%). cSpearman’s rank correlation coefficients based on crude and energy-adjusted values. For men, r ≥ 0.24 = P < 0.05, r ≥ 0.31 = P < 0.01, r ≥ 0.39 = P < 0.001. For women, r ≥ 0.23 = P < 0.05, r ≥ 0.30 = P < 0.01, r ≥ 0.38 = P ≤ 0.001. dDeattenuated CCx = observed CCx * SQRT(1 + λx/n), where λx is the ratio of within- to between-individual variance for nutrient x, and n is number of dietary records; observed CCs were based on energy-adjusted values other than energy intake.
