Still, while exit interviews do help validate data obtained through other self-report methods, collecting information solely at exit presents participants with an increased level of difficulty: having to accurately recall both specific behaviors (i.e., sex and product use) and the factors that had influenced them [ 24].
Improving product safety through legislations and standardization as well as improving customer behavior and product usage behaviors through safety education is recommended in this regard.
Our dataset lacked body mass index and personal behavior or product use data, thus we could not explore obesity or co-exposures as possible effect modifiers.
Identifying the relative contribution of different phthalate sources is a gap in the current literature and will require more comprehensive assessment of individual behaviors related to diet, personal care product use, and occupation.
Couple emission results with typical activities and a variety of behaviors to estimate exposure during product use.
Stratified by children's health status and health behavior as well as parental socio-economic status and parents-related health behavior, a significantly higher herbal medicinal product use is seen among children with a poor (fair/bad/very bad) general health status.
