Adjusted for age, sex, race, ethnicity, education, season, and Healthy Eating Index. Work-related analyses controlled for leisure-time PA and leisure-time analyses controlled for work-related PA. P-value refers to trend across quartiles; bold indicates a statistically significant difference between quartiles. N = 562
