  1. Linear mixed model for association of candidate urbanized diet indices and overall urbanization index, accounting for correlations at community and household levels
  2. aUrbanization index is a validated multicomponent measure of urbanization in the CHNS (Jones-Smith & Popkin, 2010)
  3. b Model I, unadjusted
  4. c Model II, minimally adjusted for age and sex
  5. d Model III, fully adjusted for age, sex/ smoking status, average daily energy intake (kcals), region, education level, per capita gross household income, physical activity
