Fig. 1: Estimated marginal means (EMM) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of eating behaviors throughout the behavior maintenance stage of the PREVIEW intervention by stress groups.
From: Perceived stress as a predictor of eating behavior during the 3-year PREVIEW lifestyle intervention
Individuals with frequent high stress levels (n = 132) reported high Perceived Stress Scale scores (≥20) 2 or more time-points during the behavior maintenance stage (6–36 months). Determined using linear mixed effects models with maximum likelihood estimation adjusted for age, sex, diet (high vs medium protein), and baseline (month 0) eating behavior and BMI as fixed effects and participant ID and intervention center as random effects, including group*time interaction term. Pairwise comparisons were conducted at each time point, and significantly different (p < 0.05, Bonferroni adjusted) mean values are indicated with different letters.
