  1. † Estimates are β coefficients along with standard error obtained from mixed effect regression models. Gender, School type (when not segregated), age, grade and BMI were adjusted and school was treated as random effect. Psychosocial factors are independent and breakfast dependent variable.
  2. ‡ Psychosocial factors are standardized scores. A higher score is protective for value, belief, body image satisfaction, peer’s influence and parents influence. A lower score is protective for depression and eating more than usual.
  3. * p<0.05; ** p<0.01.
