Notes.  Television watching was reported to the nearest 0.25 hours. The dependent variable is ≥ 4.25 hours of TV versus ≤ 4.00 hours of TV. The 4th quartile of BMI is the reference.
Model 1 was adjusted for age (𝑃=0.036), gender (𝑃=0.28), BMI quartiles (𝑃=0.331), currently smoking (𝑃=0.111), and education (𝑃=0.019). Participants who were older and had less education were more likely to watch more than 4 hours of TV per day as compared to their counterparts.
Model 1 parameters. χ ² (11) = 112.8 (𝑁=825), 𝑃<0.001. Nagelkerke R-squared = 0.193 with 78.1% of the cases classified correctly.
Model 2 included age (𝑃=0.051), gender (𝑃=0.228), BMI quartiles (𝑃=0.419), currently smoking (𝑃=0.082), education (𝑃=0.023), and an adjustment for high glycosylated hemoglobin: high A1C ≥ 6% (𝑃=0.321), diabetes status by high A1C (𝑃=0.134).
Model 2 parameters. χ ² (13)  = 112.8 (𝑁=819), P < 0.001. Nagelkerke R-squared = 0.197 with 78.6% of the cases classified correctly.
