Our study design consisted of a secondary analysis of household survey data from the 2003 California Health Interview Survey. Children …
Contextual influences on eating behaviours: Heuristic processing and dietary choices
This paper reviews some of the evidence that dietary behaviours are, in large part, the consequence of automatic responses to contextual food cues, many of which lead to increased caloric consumption and poor dietary choices.

Income Disparities in Obesity Trends Among California Adolescents
Objectives. We assessed income-specific trends in obesity rates among a diverse population of California adolescents. Methods. We used data from 17 535 adolescents who responded to the California Health Interview Survey between 2001 and 2007 to examine disparities in obesity prevalence by family income and gender. Results. Between 2001 and 2007, obesity prevalence significantly increased among lower-income adolescents but showed no statistically …
