Outcome variables included self-reported measures of PA, SBM, IBC, and smoking. Body image was assessed with 5 items from the Body Investment Scale (\u03b1 = 0.87) asking for agreement\/disagreement with statements about one's body. Stratifying on gender, an initial regression model estimated the association between overweight\/obesity and CDRHP. Mediation models that included body image were then compared to the initial model to determine the role of body image in the relationship between overweight\/obesity and CDRHP. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Among boys, body image mediated the relationships of overweight\/obesity with SBM, and of obesity with IBC. Among girls, it mediated the relationships of obesity with PA, IBC, and smoking, and of overweight with SBM. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; As the prevalence of overweight\/obesity among adolescent boys and girls remains high, efforts to improve their body image could result in less frequent engagement in CDRHP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000357601","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,20]],"date-time":"2013-12-20T10:06:37Z","timestamp":1387533997000},"page":"1-14","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Adolescent
