Peer Effects on Weight Status, Dietary Behaviour and Physical Activity among Adolescents in Europe: Findings from the I.Family Study 2019 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted This study uses survey data from the I.Family Study to investigate the association between adolescent and peer overweight in a sample of adolescents aged 12–16 from six European countries. We find clear evidence of peer effects on body mass index, waist circumference, and body fat, which are stronger among adolescents at the upper end of overweight distribution. We also provide evidence that both consumption of less healthy foods and time spent in leisure time physical activity and audio-visual media are positively associated with similar behaviours among friends. These observations may suggest that peer effects on adolescent overweight operate by influencing friends’ behaviour patterns, especially unhealthy food consumption and physical (in)activity. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EUR/FP6/FOOD-016181 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/FP7/266044/EU/Determinants of eating behaviour in European children, adolescents and their parents/I.FAMILY info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 1.708 2019 ECONOMICS 142 / 371 = 0.383 2019 Q2 T2 1.198 2019 Economics and Econometrics 2019 Q1 Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous) 2019 Q1 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Nie, P.
