Text: Relatively fewer valid Godin scores were returned by those who left school aged < 15 years (36. 5 %) than aged 18 and over (50. 5 %), manual workers (39. 5 %) than non-manual (49. 5 %) and those with an elevated cholesterol (> 5 mmol) (34. 7 %) than those with a lower cholesterol (44. 4 %) but multivariate analysis identified that only school leaving age (p = 0. 047) was of statistical significance. Relatively fewer valid DINE scores were returned by manual than non-manual workers (fibre : 80. 8 % v 86. 8 % ; fat : 71. 2 % v 80. 0 %), smokers (fibre : 72. 6 % v 84. 7 % ; fat : 67. 5 % v 76. 9 %), patients with diabetes (fibre : 75. 9 % v 82. 9 % ; fat : 66. 9 % v 75. 8 %) and those with cholesterol > 5 mmol (fat : 68. 2 % v 76. 2 %) but multivariate analysis showed statistical significance only for smoking (fibre : p = 0. 013 ; fat : p = 0. 045), diabetes (fibre : p = 0. 039 ; fat : p = 0. 047), and cholesterol (fat : p = 0. 039).
