| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS oD9R0xl9. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The authors assessed individual, social, and school correlates of multiple chronic disease behavioral risk factors (physical inactivity, sedentary behavior, tobacco smoking, alcohol drinking, and high body mass index) in a representative sample of Canadian youth aged 10-15 years (mean=12.5 years) attending public schools. Cross-sectional data (n=1,747) from cycle 4 (2000-2001) of the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth were used. Ordinal regression models were constructed to investigate associations between selected covariates and multiple behavioral risk-factor levels (0/1,2,3, or 4/5 risk factors). Older age (odds ratio (OR)=1.95,95% confidence interval (Cl) : 1.21,3.13), caregiver smoking (OR=1.49,95% Cl : 1.09,2.03), reporting that most/all of one's peers smoked (OR=7.31,95% Cl : 4.00,13.35) or drank alcohol (OR=3.77,95% Cl : 2.18,6.53), and living in a lone-parent family (OR=1.94,95% Cl : 1.31,2.88) increased the likelihood of having multiple behavioral risk factors. Youth with high self-esteem (OR=0.92,95% Cl : 0.85,0.99) and youth from families with postsecondary education (OR=0.58,95% Cl : 0.41,0.82) were less likely to have a higher number of risk factors. Although several individual and social characteristics were associated with multiple behavioral risk factors, no school-related correlates emerged. These variables should be considered when planning prevention programs. |
