Considering BMI and selected demographic variables. Presented as ORs with 95% CIs separately for Sami and non-Sami. The associations between weight underestimation and anxiety and depression are adjusted for age, BMI, education and marital status.
B, unstandardised regression coefficient; BMI, body mass index; OR, odds ratio; SE, standard error.
