BMI. Obesity was measured with a BMI category variable. The variable was categorical, with 4 levels, Underweight, Normal, Overweight, and Obese. Underweight children were in the 5th percentile for BMI. Normal BMI and was somewhere between the 5th and 84th percentile for their BMI. Overweight children were between the 85th to 94th percentile for BMI. Children with a BMI at or above the 95th percentile were coded as Obese. BMI was calculated for children between the ages of ten to seventeen, and used parent reported height and weight data to calculate it. BMI was then classified into the above categories using CDC BMI-for-Age Growth Charts. There were three variables related to sleep. One was whether or not children get the recommended amount of sleep. The data were coded into two categories- the child sleeps the recommended number of hours, or the child sleeps less than the recommended number of hours. This variable was not included in the models, as hours of sleep provides more information and it can be determined whether or not a child is sleeping a sufficient amount from that variable.

It was re-coded to be a linear variable. Less than 6 hours of sleep and 6 hours of sleep were coded as 6. 7, 8, 9, and 10 -hours were re-coded as their respective integers. 11 or more hours was re-coded as 11 hours. The variable was made linear using the as.numeric command in R. Physical activity was categorized into 4 levels, for the number of days children were physically active for at least 60 minutes a day. The levels are: 0 days a week for 60 minutes, 1 to 3 days a week, 4 to 6 days a week, and every day.
