Cross-sectional associations between overweight, eating behavior, and physical activity in children and adolescents: differences depending on socio-economic status

Abstract

Unhealthier diet and eating habits as well as less PA are associated with overweight in children and adolescents. However, associations with healthy diets were not observed in families with low or high SES, suggesting that other factors may play a greater role in these groups.
