Notes:

1

Models were adjusted for adolescent age, race/ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.

2

High and low categories for the home food availability and parental modeling were determined by cutting at the median of the scale range. High and low categories for the food restriction scale were determined by cutting at the measure midpoint.
