Several studies have shown secular increases in obesity during the past 35 years, and others have reported increases in dietary fat consumption during the same period. Here we report a dramatic increase in obesity among Pima Indians born after World War II that appears to be associated with increased exposure to Western customs and diet following 1945. We examined the body mass index (BMI = weight in kilograms/height 2 in meters) of 1,128 male an…
Two large amish pedigrees suitable for genetic linkage analysis
Major gene involvement in human obesity

Models of spouse influence and their application to smoking behavior

The models focus on the observable effects or outcomes of spouse influence rather than on actual mechanisms, which are remote from our observations. Our analysis of smoking behavior suggests that the spouses do not ch…
Replication of the Factor Structure of the Comrey Personality Scales
The factor structure of the Comrey Personality Scales was replicated using a sample of suburban Denver residents ( N = 377). Correlations are reported between the Comrey scales and age, socioeconomic status, sex, body type, a short locus of control scale, the Raven Progressive Matrices Test, and the Neuroticism and Extraversion scales from the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. Correlations with self-reported leisure time activities and nervous h…
