Note: Results from binary logistic regression models on differences in prevalences of recurrent PB and RB, respectively, according to gender, weight status and educational level. Of note, the underweight group needed to be excluded from the analyses due to zero cell values. Thus, in contrast to the planned analyses, we built two groups: individuals with normal weight and overweight/obesity. Total N = 2403. PB, pica behaviour; RB, rumination behaviour; CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; LL, lower level; UL, upper level; ref., reference group.
