Chi-square comparisons of frequencies of child eating- and weight-related behaviors across parent HW, OB, and BED groups.

	BED (n=63)	OB (n=85)	HW (n=183)
Child Eating Behaviors	n (%)	n (%)	n (%)	χ ²	p	φ
Overeating episodes	16 (25.4%)^†	13 (15.3%)	23 (12.6%)^*	5.84	.054	.133
Binge-eating episodes	13 (20.6%)^†‡	4 (4.7%)^*	9 (4.9%)^*	17.56	<.001	.230

Note. N=331. Frequencies represent the parent-reported child behavior at least weekly over the past month. BED=parent with binge-eating disorder, OB=parent with obesity, HW=parent with healthy-weight
