In our study, SHS and BMI showed a marginally significant relationship, but a previous study found a stronger association between SHS and BMI in adolescents (10–18 years old) than in children (0–10 years old) [ 33 ].

Significant results for culture as protective against risk for substance abuse (CAGE-AID) was most likely affected ( p value approaching significance) due to an error in language on the measure (i.e., created double negative).

An increasing trend was determined when the EAPC and the lower limit of the 95% CI were above zero, and vice versa for a decreasing trend.

Models 2 to 4 included SE ( β = 0.024, P < 0.001), PSS ( β = 0.026, P < 0.001), and ES ( β = 0.026, P < 0.001) as core independent variables, in which the estimated results showed that each had a highly significant positive and similar effect.
