Even big, successful, longitudinal studies like the famous 67-year-old Framingham Heart Study have relied on occasional surveys to spot correlations between behaviors and measures of health.
First, a basic model adjusted for age and sex; then a second model further adjusted for marital status, health behaviors, and measures of health status.
Further, whereas studies of older persons have shown that financial literacy is important for financial planning in old age [ 22], very little data from older persons are available regarding the relation of financial literacy with health promoting behaviors and measures of health status.
Pearson correlation coefficients, logistic regression, or linear regression analyses were performed to examine the relationship between perceived difficulty with physical tasks, sports participation, time spent in sedentary behaviors, and measures of 6MWT performance; age, gender, and BMI-SDS were included in the regression models.
Physical measurements of the child's height, weight, waist circumference and body composition (bioelectrical impedance) are conducted prior to completing self-reported measures of physical activity, sedentary behavior, diet, and measures of enjoyment of physical activity and sedentary behavior.
Humans and rhesus macaques have short (S) and long (L) allelic variants of 5-HTTLPR, and in both species the presence of the S allele interacts with early environment to produce long term effects on behavior, personality, and measures of central nervous system function [2] [5].
More distal outcomes -- including effects on regret, satisfaction, behaviors, actual decisions, and measures of health -- may also be important measures of the effect of VCMs, but are often affected by many other factors.
An experiment was conducted to determine the effects of altering carbohydrate sources and reducing dietary starch on lactational performance, feeding behavior, and ruminal measures of Holstein dairy cows.
