Abstract

Objective: To investigate the moderating effect of gender and mother’s education level on the relation between overweight and associated factors in adolescents. Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study, performed with 945 students, of both sexes, aged between 14 and 18 years, of Ponta Grossa, Paraná. Weight and height measurements were collected. The adolescents filled out a questionnaire addressing sociodemographic information (gender, age, occupation/work, adolescent’s address and parents’ level of education), sedentary behavior (time watching TV/at the computer), participation in Physical Education classes and practice of physical activities. For data analysis, Poisson regression was used in STATA 9.2 software, adopting a significance level of p<0.05. Results: The prevalence of overweight among the adolescents was 18.8%. There was association between overweight and the variables age and sedentary behavior. However, when the estimates were adjusted for all the other independent variables, only the ages of 15 and 16 remained associated with overweight. A moderating effect of gender was observed in the association between overweight and sedentary behavior, and a moderating effect of mother’s education on the association between adolescents’ age and prevalence of overweight. Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight in adolescents was lower in the age range of 14 to 16 years old. Nevertheless, the age increase and the presence of sedentary behaviors were associated to lower risk of being overweight among boys whose mothers had lower formal schooling. As for the girls, a lower risk of overweight was observed when mothers presented higher level of education.
