Abstract

evidence from self-reported measures; thus using objective data to classify participants may result in discrepancies.The first step toward targeted intervention efforts is an understanding of the factors that are associated with engaging in multiple unhealthy behaviors.Similarly to the US study, these analyses showed that adolescent boys and girls with depressive symptoms had lower odds of meeting all 3 recommendations, although associations of other independent variables, such as income and obesity, appeared to differ by sex in the present study.Given that weight status and depression are socially patterned in the United Kingdom, the findings validate the need for UK-based prospective studies that use robust measures to understand associative pathways.It is also important to understand the socioeconomic patterning of lifestyle behaviors and health markers in girls and boys to inform interventions and policy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
