Logistic Regression Models
We estimated logistic regression models to test whether T1 fat
intake, binge eating, exercise level, dietary restraint, compensatory
behaviors, depressive symptoms, and perceived parental obesity
increased the risk for onset of obesity over the 4-year follow-up
period among adolescents who were not obese at T1. Participants
who met criteria for obesity at T1 were excluded to ensure that we
conducted a truly prospective test of our hypotheses.
