LONCAAFS, Longitudinal Study on Sedentary Behavior, Physical Activity, Dietary Habits and Health of Adolescents.

Bold values are significant (P < 0·05).

^*Model 1: crude analysis model (Z-score of BMI and score of standards).

^†Model 2: model adjusted for total energy.

^‡Model 3: adjusted by the previous variables plus the variables sex, age and economic class.

^§Model 4: adjusted by the previous variables plus the variable level of physical activity.
