  1. aStandardized residuals ≤ |2| versus > |2| from adjusted linear mixed model predicting overall urbanization index from urbanized diet index, controlling for age, sex and smoking status, daily energy intake, region, educational attainment, household income, daily physical activity, and accounting for community and household correlations
  2. bOverall urbanization index is a validated multicomponent measure of urbanization in the CHNS (Jones-Smith & Popkin, 2010)
  3. cStatistically significant differences between the two groups
  4. dIncome is gross per capita household income, in thousands of Yuan
