White 1.36 ** (0.18) (1.04–1.77)
Higher Education in Household 0.82 ** (0.08) (0.67–1)
Immigration Status 0.82 * (0.1) (0.64–1.03)

Male 1.99 *** (0.19) (1.65–2.42)
Constant 0.06 ** (0.03) (0.02–0.14)

The results are reported from logistic regression analyses where in the case of patterns of whole-grain consumption, the balanced intake of grains was used as the reference group. In the case of SES and health-related variables, only the variables that were significantly different from zero are reported. *significantly different from zero at the 10% level. **significantly different from zero at the 5% level. ***significantly different from zero at the 1% level.
