Children and chrono-exercise: Timing of physical activity on school and weekend days depends on sex and obesity status

Author(s): Reid RER; Henderson M; Barnett TA; Kakinami L; Tremblay A; Mathieu ME;

Recommendations for physical activity (PA) typically focus on frequency, intensity, duration, and type, but timing (chrono-exercise) is also important. The objective of this study is to describe when children are active on school and weekend days and explor ...

Compensatory health motivations and behaviors scale: Development, evaluation, psychometric properties and a preliminary validation

Author(s): Sedemedes K; Knäuper B; Sadikaj G; Yuan TY; Wrosch C; Santosa S; Alberga AS; Kakinami L;

The "Compensatory Health Beliefs" scale assesses the degree to which one believes that unhealthy behaviours can be compensated through healthier ones. However, no validated scale to assess compensatory weight-related behaviors exists. The study ...

The longitudinal effects of maternal parenting practices on children's body mass index z-scores are lagged and differential

Author(s): Kakinami L; Danieles PK; Hosseininasabnajar F; Barnett TA; Henderson M; Van Hulst A; Serbin LA; Stack DM; Paradis G; ...

Background: The longitudinal relation between parenting practices and styles with children's body mass index z-scores (zBMI) is poorly understood. Previous studies suggest the ...

Adolescents' reports of chaos within the family home environment: Investigating associations with lifestyle behaviours and obesity

Author(s): Van Hulst A; Jayanetti S; Sanson-Rosas AM; Harbec MJ; Kakinami L; Barnett TA; Henderson M; ...

Objective: Disorganised and chaotic home environments may hinder the adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviours and contribute to excessive weight gain among adolescents. We examined whether self-rep ...

Body-composition phenotypes and their associations with cardiometabolic risks and health behaviours in a representative general US sample

Author(s): Kakinami L; Plummer S; Cohen T; Santosa S; Murphy J;

Body mass index is poor at distinguishing between adiposity and muscle. Based on dual energy X-ray absorptiometry data, a diagnostic framework to analyze body composition by categorizing fat- and muscle-mass body composition into four phenotypes has been pr ...

Comparison of different severe obesity definitions in predicting future cardiometabolic risk in a longitudinal cohort of children

Author(s): Kakinami L; Smyrnova A; Paradis G; Tremblay A; Henderson M;

Objectives: Severe obesity (SO) prevalence varies between reference curve-based definitions (WHO: =99th percentile, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): >1.2×95th percentile). Whether SO definitions differentially predict cardiometabolic diseas ...

Associations of neighborhood walkability with moderate to vigorous physical activity: an application of compositional data analysis comparing compositional and non-compositional approaches

Author(s): Bird M; Datta GD; Chinerman D; Kakinami L; Mathieu ME; Henderson M; Barnett TA;

Background: We compared the relation between neighborhood features and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) using linear regression analysis and the more novel compositional data analysis (CoDA). Compositional data analysis allows us to take the ti ...

Validation of desk-based audits using Google Street View® to monitor the obesogenic potential of neighbourhoods in a pediatric sample: a pilot study in the QUALITY cohort

Author(s): Roberge JB; Contreras G; Kakinami L; Van Hulst A; Henderson M; Barnett TA;

Background: The suitability of geospatial services for auditing neighbourhood features relevant to pediatric obesity remains largely unexplored. Our objectives were to (i) establish the measurement properties of a desk-based audit instrument that uses Googl ...

The relationship between weight bias internalization and healthy and unhealthy weight control behaviours

Author(s): Levy M; Kakinami L; Alberga AS;

Purpose: Weight bias internalization (WBI) is associated with disordered eating symptomology and motivation to control weight. The relationship between WBI and specific weight control behaviours and how these behaviours differ between men and women is not w ...
