Innenfor subgrupper med relativt høy røykefrekvens, der en samvariasjon med andre ugunstige variabler ikke var like uttalt som blant de lavest utdannede, nemlig blant menn med lavere utdannelse og skilte kvinner, vil én time hard mosjon per uke kunne oppfattes som en individuell markør for god selvopplevd helse, mens lett mosjon på det valgte nivå i henhold til de bivariate sammenhengene kan oppfattes som en sosiokulturell markør for subgrupper med høy grad av samvariasjon av gunstige faktorer (42).…”
