Notes:

1.

Relative Risk Ratios, with 95% Confidence Intervals in brackets.

2.

Models control for respondent age, education, income, childhood household structure, childhood home finances, and parent nativity, race, and sex.

3.

DV = Actual BMI, where “Under” = Very/Slightly Underweight, “Slightly Over” = Slightly Overweight, “Very Over” = Very Overweight, where the comparison group is “Normal BMI”.
