Abstract
We used data from the Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study to analyze the effectiveness of lifestyle intervention according to educational attainment. The effect of intervention on lifestyle changes and diabetes incidence was independent of education. The prevention of type 2 diabetes by lifestyle intervention is effective regardless of participants’ educational attainment.
