  1. Model 1. Adjusted for age and gender. Model 2. Adjusted for variables in model1 and smoking status, alcohol intake, diet habits, influence at work, MVPA and total measured time during the corresponding domain. Model 3. Adjusted for the variables in model 2 and total sitting time in the domain under study. Model 4. Adjusted for the variables in model 3 and the EVA variable under study in the opposite domain
  2. BMI body mass index, LB long sitting bouts (>30 mins), MB moderate sitting bouts (>5 and ≤30 mins), BB brief sitting bouts (≤5 mins). Coefficients are given with 95 % confidence interval (CI), and p-value pertaining to the null-hypothesis of zero effect, significant effects (p < 0.05) are shown in boldface. ±total sitting time, LB, MB, and BB. ҂BMI, waist circumference and fat percentage. ǂwhole day, work, and leisure
