The role of the built environment in explaining educational inequalities in walking and cycling among adults in the Netherlands

Table 5 Associations between educational level and walking and cycling adjusted for significant built environment variables

Educational level	RR (95% CI)	Sig.	ΔRR
Walking for transport^a
Low	1.00	0.262
Middle	1.01 (0.90–1.13)		+0.03
High	0.94 (0.85–1.04)		+0.03
Cycling for transport^b
Low	1.00	0.014
Middle	1.01 (0.93–1.11)		−0.01
High	1.12 (1.03–1.22)		−0.01
Walking in leisure time^c
Low	1.00	0.004
Middle	1.12 (1.04–1.21)		0.00
High	1.12 (1.04–1.21)		0.00
Cycling in leisure time^d
Low	1.00	0.039
Middle	1.05 (0.97–1.14)		−0.01
High	1.11 (1.02–1.20)		−0.01

The changes in risk ratios (ΔRR) compare the risk ratios after adjustment for built environment variables to the risk ratios before adjustment for built environment variables (see Table 3)
^aAdjusted for variations in sex, age, employment status, address density, population density, connectivity, accessibility of facilities and accessibility of forests
^bAdjusted for variations in sex, age, employment status and population density
^cAdjusted for variations in sex, age, employment status, address density and accessibility of facilities
^dAdjusted for variations in sex, age, employment status, address density, population density and accessibility of public green space
