Do income inequalities in higher weight status depend on social integration?
In this study, the investigators use data from the 2003-2008 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to examine whether the association between higher weight status and social integration varies by income. The investigators concluded that the association between income and higher weight status operates differently for women and men and is dependent, in part, on their level of social integration.
