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 = Discordance between Perceived Body Weight and BMI, where “Under Estimate” = Underestimation of weight relative to BMI, “Over Estimate” = Overestimate relative to BMI, where the comparison group is “Accurate Estimation of Weight relative to BMI.
