 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Weight-related problems including obesity, poor eating behaviors, inadequate physical activity, unhealthy weight control practices, and body dissatisfaction are very prevalent among young adults, and have adverse physical and psychosocial consequences. Obesity is one of the most significant public health problems in today's society. NIH and prominent researchers have called for longitudinal research that examines multiple environments with the potential to influence obesity and other weight-related problems. The proposed study, "EAT 2010-2018: A longitudinal, multi-contextual study of weight-related problems," is responsive to these calls. The primary aim of this study is to identif longitudinal, multi-contextual predictors of weight-related problems in a diverse population-based sample of young people as they transition from adolescence to young adulthood. To accomplish this aim, the proposed study builds upon existing data collected on 2,793 adolescents in EAT 2010 as part of a previously funded R01 study. The study population includes a high percentage of young people from ethnic/racial minority (82%) and low-income backgrounds (71% qualified for free/reduced price school meals at baseline) who are at high risk for obesity. In 2010, cross-sectional data were also collected on these adolescents' mothers and fathers, friends, schools, and neighborhoods. In the proposed study, follow-up data will be collected from the original study participants, who are now young adults, and their parents, friends, and significant others. Additionally, data will be collected on the young adults' school/workplace and neighborhood environments. This longitudinal study will allow for an examination of how multiple factors predict changes in weight-related outcomes among diverse young people during key life course transitions involving new friendships, schools, living arrangements, roles, and responsibilities. The inclusion of longitudinal data collected directly from both mothers and fathers, or other caregivers as relevant, will help address unanswered questions about how parents can best help their adolescent and young adult children with weight-related problems, in a developmentally appropriate way, as they become more independent. Innovative research methodologies will be utilized to survey current friends and significant others of study participants and explore the potential impact of earlier, ongoing, and current friendships on weight- related outcomes over time. There is much to be learned about factors from within the domains of family, friend, school/workplace, and neighborhood environments and their relevance for weight-related outcomes. This comprehensive, longitudinal study will address new research questions that have emerged as key to understanding the etiology of weight-related problems in young people. Findings will guide the development of more innovative and effective interventions that target multiple environments of influence to prevent and treat a broad spectrum of weight-related problems in adolescents and young adults from diverse ethnic/racial and socio-economic backgrounds.

 描述（由适用提供）：与体重有关的问题，包括肥胖症，饮食行为不佳，体育锻炼不足，体重控制不健康和身体不满意，在年轻人中非常普遍，并且有不利的身体和心理社会后果。肥胖是当今社会中最重要的公共卫生问题之一。 NIH和著名的研究人员呼吁进行纵向研究，该研究检查多种环境，有可能影响肥胖和其他与体重有关的问题。拟议的研究“ EAT 2010-2018：与体重相关问题的纵向，多上下文研究”，对这些调用有反应。这项研究的主要目的是确定基于潜水员的年轻人从青少年过渡到年轻成年的纵向，多上下文的体重相关问题的预测指标。为了实现这一目标，拟议的研究基于AEAT 2010年2,793名青少年收集的现有数据，作为先前资助的R01研究的一部分。该研究人群包括来自少数族裔/种族少数族裔（82％）和低收入背景（71％获得基线免费/降低价格学校餐点的年轻人），他们的肥胖风险很高。在2010年，还收集了这些青少年的母亲和父亲，朋友，学校和社区的横断面数据。在拟议的研究中，将从现在的年轻人及其父母，朋友和其他重要的其他研究参与者那里收集随访数据。此外，将收集数据在年轻人的学校/工作场所和邻里环境上。这项纵向研究将允许研究多个因素如何预测潜水员年轻人在关键的生活课程过渡期间与新朋友，学校，生活安排，角色和责任感的变化。直接从母亲和父亲或其他照顾者收集的纵向数据将有助于解决有关父母如何最好地帮助他们的青少年和年轻儿童患有与体重相关的问题的未解决问题的问题，因为他们变得更加独立。创新的研究方法将用于调查当前的朋友和重要的其他研究参与者，并探讨早期，持续和现有朋友随着时间的推移对体重相关的结果的潜在影响。从家庭，朋友，学校/工作场所和邻里环境的领域内的因素及其与体重相关的结果的相关性，还有很多关于因素的知识。这项全面的纵向研究将解决新的研究问题，这些问题是了解年轻人与体重有关的问题的关键。调查结果将指导更具创新性和有效的干预措施的发展，这些干预措施针对多种影响环境，以预防和治疗来自潜水员的民族/种族和社会经济背景的青少年和年轻人的体重相关问题。
