Social norms for obesity are an important variable to understand given the pervasiveness of this condition in our society and the multiple life situations in which individuals are exposed to obesity-related behaviors. This presentation discusses a study that developed a measurement approach to assessing weight loss, dietary and physical activity social norms in the worksite and assessed the associations of these norms with behaviors.youtubeen-USCopyright the Author(s)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/Clinical EpidemiologyCommunity Health and Preventive MedicineNutritional and Metabolic DiseasesPublic HealthSocial and Behavioral SciencesThe Social Context as a Determinant of Weight-Related Behaviors: Focus on Social NormsPresentationhttps://escholarship.umassmed.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1002&context=cts_retreat&unstamped=1https://escholarship.umassmed.edu/cts_retreat/2011/presentations/42132879cts_retreat/2011/presentations/4
