From: Adolescent body satisfaction: the role of perceived parental encouragement for physical activity
Moderated mediation model for the associations between fathers' encouragement for PA at age 15 and adolescent body satisfaction at age 16 as mediated by adolescent PA at age 15 and moderated by adolescent sex. After adjusting for adolescent sex and BMI: 1) encouragement for PA from fathers predicted adolescent PA (adolescent sex did not moderate this association); 2) fathers encouragement for PA predicted adolescent PA as moderated by adolescent sex; however, 3) adolescent PA was no longer a significant predictor of body satisfaction. *p < .05; **p < .01.
