a

Main effects model. Fruit/vegetable intake, R2 = .051, Homer and Lemeshow test: χ2 = 14.16, df = 8, p = .078. Physical activity, R2 = .129, Homer and Lemeshow test: χ2 = 10.36, df = 8, p = .241. Screen time, R2 = .076, Homer and Lemeshow test: χ2 = 1.06, df = 9, p = .998.

b

Race/ethnicity, gender, and weight status adjusted for the others.

c

Multi-race or Asian subgroups were not included in the interaction models due to small sample sizes.

d

Lower values of indicate less total screen time (ST). x Denotes interaction.
