Table 4.

Comparison of reported energy intake (EI)^a with estimated energy requirement (EER)^b according to type of intervention.

Intervention group	Correlation (r)c	P	EI (kcal), median (IQRd)	EER (kcal), median (IQR)	Energy intake reporte (n=21), n (%)
					Under	Plausible	Over
High-level group	.51	.02	1526 (1214)	1808 (336)	7 (33)	14 (67)	0 (0)
Low-level group	.55	.01	1655 (1275)	1837 (679)	7 (33)	14 (67)	0 (0)

^aEI: energy intake reported on the 1-day food record with digital images.

^bEER: estimated energy requirement based on Dietary Reference Intake equations (see Data Analysis section) to estimate energy requirement for boys and girls, 9-18 years old. Physical activity level (PAL) was set at low active (PAL of 1.40-1.59, equivalent to physical activity [PA]=1.13 for boys and PA=1.16 for girls) for lack of physical activity data.

^cSpearman rank correlation coefficient (r) between EI and EER.

^dIQR: interquartile range.

^eEnergy intake is underreported if EI:EER<0.61, plausibly reported if EI:EER is 0.61-1.64, and overreported if EI:EER>1.64.
