Abstract:
Older siblings are powerful socialization agents, playing a significant role in the sociocognitive, social, and emotional development of their younger siblings. However, there are few clues about the variables that explain younger sibling’s adaptation. The objective of this pilot study was to identify the determinants of younger siblings' adaptation and to analyze the role played by personal, sibling, family and older siblings’ variables using 50 dyads of siblings aged between 7 and 18 years. The variables considered were the sibling relationships and the maladaptation of older siblings, and individual (sex, number of siblings, extroversion, and agreeableness) and contextual variables (interparental conflict, daily stress) were controlled. Hierarchical multiple regressions provided evidence in favor of the model that analyzed the younger siblings' maladaptation to school, showing positive associations both with the older siblings' level of school maladaptation and with sibling conflict. In addition, the study highlighted the relevance of the trait of agreeableness and of family stress in the adaptation of younger siblings.

Abstract:
Studies have identified concurrent, longitudinal, and bidirectional associations between language difficulties and internalizing problems. This is commonly explained by social exclusion or withdrawal from peers, but underlying mechanisms are not well understood. This study uses sibling data to investigate if the comorbidity between language difficulties and internalizing problems is best explained by familial factors shared by siblings, such as genes or family environment, or nonfamilial factors specific to each child, such as peer environment. Data include 5,568 siblings at 5 years and 3,654 siblings at 8 years participating in the Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa). We constructed a latent factor model at 5 and 8 years, including a family comorbidity factor capturing correlations between language and internalizing problems that were equally strong between as within siblings. Results showed that the correlation between one sibling’s internalizing problems and the other sibling’s language problems was mostly accounted for by a family comorbidity factor. The best-fitting longitudinal model included stability of the family comorbidity factor and stability of language and internalizing problems within each sibling and no cross-sibling or cross-trait longitudinal associations. This suggests that the association between language and internalizing problems may be best explained by family factors.

Abstract:
The purpose of the present study was to gain an understanding of family outcome, adjustment, and needs following traumatic brain injury (TBI) from the perspectives of adult siblings. An American sample of 277 adult siblings of persons with TBI responded to the question, “What impact has your sibling's TBI had on your family (e.g., parents, other siblings, etc.)”? Responses were analyzed through constant comparative textual analysis. Responses were grouped into four themes including a) the consequences of providing care, b) family system impacts, c) evolved attitudes and beliefs, and d) how families provide care. From the perspective of adult siblings, TBI presents outcomes which both strengthen and compromise family systems. The uniqueness of the sibling bond reveals information about family systems not accessible through other relationships.

Abstract:
Current research on well siblings of individuals with mental illness focuses predominantly on adult siblings of individuals with schizophrenia, eating disorders, and psychosis. Few studies examine the experiences of young adult siblings of individuals with mood and/or anxiety disorders. We conducted focus groups with 21 post-secondary students, gathering their experiences of living with a sibling with mood and/or anxiety disorders. Our findings highlight the important role well siblings play in their sibling’s care, and the significant health and social impacts of living with a mentally ill sibling, particularly during adolescence. The needs of young adult well siblings of individuals with mood and/or anxiety disorders must be considered in the provision of family-centred care.

Abstract:
BackgroundAlthough cognitive subtypes have been suggested in schizophrenia patients, similar analyses have not been carried out in their non-affected siblings. Subtype classification may provide more insight into genetically driven variation in cognitive function. We investigated cognitive subtypes in siblings.MethodCluster analyses were performed in 654 non-affected siblings, on a cognitive battery that included tests of attention, intellectual function and episodic memory. Resulting subtypes in the siblings were analyzed for cognitive, demographic and clinical characteristics and compared with those of their probands.ResultsThree sibling subtypes of cognitive function were distinguished: ‘normal’, ‘mixed’ and ‘impaired’. Normal profile siblings (n = 192) were unimpaired on cognitive tests, in contrast to their proband (n = 184). Mixed profile siblings (n = 228) and their probands (n = 222) had a more similar performance pattern. Impaired profile siblings had poorer functional outcomes (n = 234) and their profile was almost identical to that of their proband (n = 223). Probands with cognitively impaired siblings could be distinguished from other schizophrenia patients by their own cognitive performance. They also had poorer clinical characteristics, including achievement of symptomatic remission.ConclusionsUnaffected siblings of patients with schizophrenia are heterogeneous with respect to cognitive function. The poorer the cognitive profile of the sibling, the higher the level of correspondence with the proband. The sibling's cognitive subtype was predictive for disease course in the proband. Distinguishing cognitive subtypes of unaffected siblings may be of relevance for genetic studies.

Abstract:
Purpose The sibling relationship teaches children to navigate social interactions with their peers. However, the presence of an exceptionality, such as hearing loss, in one child can affect the dynamic of this relationship. This article examines quantitative and qualitative effects of having a brother or sister with a cochlear implant (CI) on siblings with typical hearing (TH) to determine how children with TH perceive their sibling with a CI and how having a CI user in the family affects the sibling's activities, emotions, and parental attention. Method Participants include 36 siblings with TH ( M age = 11.6 years) of CI users ( M age = 11.9 years) who completed quantitative measures of their perspectives of their brother/sister with CIs and the effect of hearing loss on themselves. Siblings with TH also could express their opinions via open-ended prompts. Results Overall, siblings with TH express positive perspectives of their brother/sister with CIs and report having a CI user in the family does not affect them much, particularly if the CI user has adequate communication skills. Responses to both quantitative and qualitative items converge on the close relationship between siblings but diverge relative to differential attention from parents (i.e., open-ended responses suggest parents spend more time with the CI user than the sibling with TH). Additionally, siblings acknowledge the presence of social communication deficits of the CI user in real-world situations. Conclusion This nuanced look at relationships among the parent, CI user, and sibling with TH highlights the importance of understanding the family system when working with children with hearing loss.

Abstract:
Little is known about the role of adult siblings’ caregiver role within the context of mental illness. Therefore, our purpose was to explore how siblings narrate their experiences of being the main caregivers of a brother or sister with severe mental illness and how they cooperate with their ill sibling and their family of origin. We used a narrative hermeneutic approach and performed a secondary analysis of two interviews of siblings derived from a study of peoples’ experiences of hearing voices. The findings illuminate the participants’ multifaceted roles and how differently siblings might deal with the multiple challenges of caring for an ill sibling. The mediating role between their ill sibling and their family of origin to reestablish the broken family bonds was a significant aspect. Nurses’ awareness of the important and multidimensional role of caregiving siblings can improve the provision of family support and promote involvement of siblings in the treatment of an ill family member.

Abstract:
Background: Pediatric cancer is a severe life-threatening disease that poses significant challenges to the life of the siblings. Based on the social ecology model, the current study is aimed at exploring the association between intrafamilial (family functioning, family support) and contextual (network support) resources, and the individual adjustment of siblings facing cancer in their brother/sister. Methods: Participants were 81 siblings of children with leukemia or non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The mean siblings’ age was 10.32 years. Siblings completed the Family Environment Scale, the Social Support Questionnaire for Children, the Situation-Specific Emotional Reactions Questionnaire, and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory. Data were analyzed using a multi-level approach. Results: Family functioning, family support, and network support proved to be related to siblings’ cancer-related emotional reactions post-diagnosis. In addition, the present study suggests taking into account the gender of the ill child and the age of the siblings. Discussion: Our findings led to the conclusion that resources at both the intrafamilial level and the contextual level are important for explaining sibling adjustment post-diagnosis. Interventions targeting the sibling, the family, and the external network are warranted to enhance sibling adjustment.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper explores how siblings act as agents of consumer socialisation within the dynamics of the family network. Design/methodology/approach – Key consumer socialisation literature is reviewed, highlighting the growing role that siblings play in the lives of contemporary children. The authors’ interpretive, exploratory study is introduced which captures the voices of children themselves through a series of in-depth interviews. Findings – A series of socialisation behaviours are documented, with children working in both positive and negative ways to develop the consumer skills of their siblings. A fourfold typology of sibling relationships is described, capturing the dynamic of sibling relationships and parental approaches to parenting vis-à-vis consumption. This typology is then used to present a typology of nascent child consumer identities that begin to emerge as a result of socialisation processes within the family setting. Research limitations/implications – The role siblings play in the process of consumer socialisation has potentially important implications in terms of the understanding of the socialisation process itself, and where/how children obtain product information. Scope exists to explore the role siblings play as agents of consumer socialisation across a wider variety of family types/sibling variables presented here (e.g. to explore how age/gender shapes the dynamics of sibling–sibling learning). Originality/value – Through adopting a networked approach to family life, the authors show how the wider family dynamic informs sibling–sibling relationships and resulting socialisation behaviours. The findings problematise the view that parents alone act as the main conduits of consumer learning within the family environment, highlighting how parent–child relationships, in turn, work to inform sibling–sibling socialisation behaviour and developing consumer identities.

Abstract:
Organized youth sport is a relatively common family context in which sibling dynamics are not well understood. The present study was designed to address two contrasting mechanisms of socialization—modeling and differentiation—in examining older siblings’ influence on younger siblings’ sport participation. American youth (N = 221) age 10–15 years (M = 12.38, SD = 1.01) who were active sport participants completed an online survey measuring individual and family demographics, sibling relationship qualities, and parent–child relationship dimensions. The participants reported on their most proximal older siblings, all of whom were within 4 years of age. The analyses suggest that sibling differentiation dynamics decreased the likelihood of playing the same primary sport as an older sibling for (a) the same biological sex, close in age to siblings; (b) the same biological sex, further in age from siblings; and (c) mixed biological sex, wide in age from siblings. The “Discussion” section highlights the practical value of understanding the impact of sibling influence processes on the individual, sibling dyad, and family system.

Abstract:
The non-victimized siblings in incestuous families have often been ignored in research, literature, and treatment. This study explored these siblings' 1) relationship to the victim, 2) attribution of blame, and 3) adjustment. Participants were 30 non-victimized siblings of incest victims, between the ages of 8 and 14. They completed the Sibling Relationship Questionnaire, the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale, the Self-perception Profile for Children, the Children's Depression Inventory, and a questionnaire developed for this research. Participants' scores were compared with the normative sample scores on several measures. Siblings perceived little warmth and closeness in their relationships to their victimized sisters. Rivalry and conflict were within normal limits. Siblings blamed victims and other family members less than expected, with the greatest amount of blame attributed to perpetrators. Adjustment was impaired. Males demonstrated less athletic competence, less global self-worth, more worry and oversensitivity than normative samples. Females showed a tendency toward less global self-worth and heightened general anxiety. Siblings' overall level of emotional distress was higher than most of the normative samples.

Abstract:
Note:<br>The effects of disability on sibling well-being and sibling relationship quality wereevaluated. Particularly, two disabilities (Phelan-McDermid syndrome and attentionhyperactivity disorder) with significantly different functional implications were examined.Siblings completed measures on behavioural and emotional functioning, self-concept,and sibling relationship quality. For both disability groups, no positive or negative effectson sibling weIl-being were found when compared to siblings oftypicaIly developingchildren. Sibling relationship quality was different for aIl three groups of siblings. Whenthere was disability in the home, siblings reported less intimacy in their relationships.Siblings of children with Phelan-McDerrnid syndrome reported more mutual admiration,more power and less conflict in their relationships than siblings oftypically developingchildren. They also reported more warmth in their relationship than siblings of childrenwith attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The importance of understanding howdisability in the home can affect siblings is emphasized.<br>Les effets de troubles de santé sur le bien-être d'enfants de même famille et sur lesrelations entre frères et soeurs furent évalués.

Les entants de même famille ont complété des questionnaires sur leurfonctionnement émotionnel et comportemental, leur concept de soi et la qualité de larelation avec leur frère ou leur soeur. Pour les deux groupes d'enfants avec un frère ouune soeur atteinte d'un trouble quelconque, aucun effet positif ou négatif sur le bien-êtrefut découvert comparativement aux enfants de familles typiques. Toutefois, la qualité desrelations entre enfants de même famille était différente dans les trois groupes. Quand l'undes enfants était atteint d'un trouble, moins d'intimité était rapportée dans la relationentre frères et soeurs. Les frères et soeurs d'enfants atteints du syndrome de PhelanMcDermidont déclaré qu'ils éprouvaient plus d'admiration, plus de pouvoir et moins deconflits entre eux que chez des enfants de familles typiques.

Abstract:
This study was undertaken for the purpose of determining if the siblings of gifted elementary students differ significantly from siblings of non-gifted elementary students in sibling affection, self-concept, or observable classroom behavior; and to investigate the relationship between sibling affection and self-concept, sibling affection and observable classroom behavior, and self-concept and observable classroom behavior.;The sample was selected from a large, urban school district located in the Mid-South. Thirty-eight pairs of siblings were selected from two-sibling families in which both children were enrolled in grades 3 through 6. Group 1 (Gifted/Siblings) consisted of first-born children who were state certified as intellectually gifted and who were participating in a gifted program and their second-born siblings who were continuously enrolled in regular classroom programs. Group 2 (Older/Younger) consisted of first-born children and their second-born siblings where both were continuously enrolled in regular classroom programs.;All participants were administered the Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale and the Family Relationship Inventory; half the participants were also administered the Bene-Anthony Family Relations Test, Children's Version. The Devereux Elementary School Behavior Rating Scale II was completed by the classroom teacher and demographic information was gathered by a parental questionnaire.;It was hypothesized that (1) siblings of gifted elementary students did not differ significantly (p {dollar}<{dollar}.05) from siblings of non-gifted elementary students in sibling affection, self-concept, or observable classroom behavior; and that (2) there was no significant relationship (p {dollar}<{dollar}.05) between sibling affection and self-concept, sibling affection and observable classroom behavior, or self-concept and observable classroom behavior.;The study found that siblings of gifted elementary students did not differ significantly (p {dollar}<{dollar}.05) from siblings of non-gifted elementary students in self-concept or observable classroom behavior; they also did not differ significantly (p {dollar}<{dollar}.05) in sibling affection on the Family Relationship Inventory. On the Bene-Anthony Family Relations Test, however, the siblings of gifted elementary students differed significantly (p {dollar}<{dollar}.01) from siblings of non-gifted elementary students in terms of raw scores; they were significantly more negative.;There was a significant (p {dollar}<{dollar}.05) relationship between self-concept and observable classroom behavior in siblings of gifted elementary students. No significant relationship existed between sibling affection and self-concept or between sibling affection and observable classroom behavior in siblings of gifted elementary students.;Further study is needed to evaluate these results in a highly competitive school environment, with a clearly established definition of giftedness, and designed to include parental perceptions.

Abstract:
The inter-sibling relationships of children and young people with autism have generally been overlooked in the literature. Whilst research has increasingly focused on this topic, relatively little is known about the constructions, perceptions and coping responses of typical siblings of children and young people with autism. A child with autism in the family presents a unique challenge and little is known about how this impacts on typical siblings. Typical siblings of children and young people with autism are proposed to be at increased risk for adjustment difficulties, as a result of interactions between complex genetic and environmental variables. Semi-structured, open-ended interviews were conducted with twelve adolescent typical siblings to explore their constructions, perceptions and coping responses. The data was analysed using thematic analysis and nine broad themes emerged: (1) knowledge and understanding of autism; (2) perceptions; (3) the quality of the inter-sibling relationship; (4) the impact of their brothers’ condition; (5) coping strategies; (6) perceptions of others; (7) support; (8) the future; and (9) acceptance and ambivalence. These themes were developed into models and the findings present initial evidence which accounts for some variability in typical siblings’ constructions, perceptions and coping responses. Such factors have important implications for individual adjustment, inter-sibling relationships, intra-familial relationships and global family functioning. These findings may be used to inform future large scale research designs, with a view to developing comprehensive assessment and support services for typical siblings of children and young people with autism. The Educational Psychologist (EP) will be integral in identifying typical siblings who may be at risk for adjustment difficulties. The EP is also well placed to develop interventions and support services for typical siblings of children and young people with autism. Therefore, this research is direct relevance to the EP, as well as those working with children and young people with autism and their families.

Abstract:
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have unique characteristics, which are expected to have an impact on members of the family. However, research concerning the effects of ASD on family members has focused predominantly on ASD’s impact on parents and less on its impact on siblings, especially in the context of Sri Lanka. This research attempts to address this gap and advance the understanding of the Behavioral and Emotional (B&amp;E) adjustment of siblings of children with ASD. The study utilized a quantitative research design using a sample of 80 mothers of children with ASD, selected using convenient sampling from hospitals and institutions located in the Colombo and Gampaha districts. Mothers completed a Demographic Questionnaire, Socio-Economic Status Questionnaire, Parental Stress Scale, and Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire. The study found that B&amp;E adjustment of the majority of the siblings was within the ‘Normal’ range (54%), which shows that siblings were well adjusted behaviorally and emotionally. However, closer to half of the siblings (46%) either had a risk (i.e., scored within the ‘Borderline’ range) or were experiencing adjustment difficulties (i.e., scored within the ‘Abnormal’ range). When siblings were analyzed according to the domains of the SDQ, the majority scored within the ‘Borderline’ range for peer problems, which indicates that siblings are at risk for peer problems. Additionally, the study found that out of all the selected family factors, Maternal Stress due to rearing a child with ASD and ASD severity was positively associated with sibling B&amp;E adjustment difficulties.

Abstract:
We assessed fibrinolysis in 99 subjects with CAD documented by angiography. Tissue-type plasminogen activator (tpa) antigen and activity (act) were measured in plasma by ELISA and solid-phase bioimmunoassay, respectively, pre and post venous occlusion (VO) of the arm for 10 minutes. Pre-VO tpa inhibitor (PAI) was assayed by a modification of the method of Juhan-Vague (Thromb Pes 1984). Mean PAI was significantly higher, and mean post-VO tpa act significantly lower, in all CAD subjects than in 28 normals (no CAD by angiography). Mean increase in tpa antigen with VO (releasable tpa) was significantly lower than that of normals only in CAD subjects with age of onset &lt;45. Mean releasable tpa and tpa act post-VO were lower in CAD subjects with age of onset &lt;45 than in older subjects, lower in those with positive than negative FH of CAD in parents or siblings, and lowest in those with both FH and age of onset &lt;45. In contrast, PAI was higher in older subjects. These data suggest that genetic factors may contribute to impaired fibrinolysis in CAD.

Abstract:
Context: The fragile X syndrome is characterized by intellectual deficit and some physical characteristics, which become more evident during growth, especially craniofacial and macroorchidism. Case report: A 22 year-old male patient with diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) diagnosed at 7 years of age is following-up with ophthalmology due to low visual acuity. On physical exam, he did not maintain eye contact and performed repetitive movements. In addition, he had an elongated face and upward slanting eyelid clefts, a high palate and prognathism, large and prominent ears. In the family history, 3 of his siblings, one male and two female, also had intellectual deficit, and two of them had concomitant DM1. One brother had only DM1 and the other none of the diseases. The parents had consanguinity (they were cousins in the 3rd degree). The patient’s karyotype, using the chromosomal breaks technique after cultivation in medium-low folic acid, showed the presence of fragility on the X chromosome in the region q27.3 [46, XY, fra (x) (q27.3)], compatible with the diagnosis of fragile X syndrome. This result was confirmed using the PCR-multiplex technique. Conclusions: In this family, the concomitant presence in several individuals of the fragile X syndrome and DM1 stands out. However, although both conditions are not related, they are frequent, which could justify their simultaneous occurrence.

Abstract:
Deficiency of protein S (PS), the cofactor for the antithrombotic protease, activated protein C (APC), was first described in 1984 in families with venous thrombotic disease. We describe here a PS deficient family with venous thrombotic disease presenting an abnormal PS molecule in plasma and platelets. The propositus, 20 years old, and two older siblings suffered from severe venous thrombosis and pulmonary emboli documented by imaging techniques. All laboratory studies were normal except for PS. The propositus while taking oral anticoagulant had a PS antigen (ag) level of 17% and PS functional activity of &gt; 5% as measured by the ability of APC to prolong the clotting time of a modified APTT assay using PS-immunodepleted plasma. One brother had PS ag of 42% and PS activity of 7%. As demonstrated by immunoblotting using SDS gels, both the propositus and this brother presented an abnormal PS molecule in plasma at 65,000 apparent MW versus normal PS at 70,000 apparent MW. The mother had normal PS levels (93% ag/100% activity) but had both normal (70,000 MW) and variant (65,000 MW) forms of the PS molecule in plasma as well as in platelet lysates. One clinically affected PS heterozygous deficient brother (64% ag/11% activity), two asymptomatic siblings (68% ag/9% activity and 104% ag/114% activity) and the asymptomatic PS heterozygous deficient father (59% ag/10% activity) had only normal PS molecules (70,000 MW) on PS immunoblots. Two dimensional immunoelectrophoresis studies showed that the variant PS bound to C4b-binding protein in plasma. Since PS is in platelets and megakaryocytes and synthesized by the latter cells, immunoblotting analysis of platelet lysates was done and showed that platelets of each family member contained the same pattern of normal and variant PS forms as found in plasma. This is consistent with the hypothesis that PS gene expression is similar in those cells, presumably megakaryocytes, hepatocytes and endothelial cells, that control the synthesis of both platelet and plasma forms of PS.

Abstract:
University dropout is one of the main problems of the Spanish university system due to its high rates. The latest report issued by the Ministry of Science and Innovation (MICINN, 2020) shows that more than 30% of students drop out of an undergraduate degree program. In order to explore the phenomenon, in line with the scientific literature, we have focused on identifying personal and family variables associated with university dropout. Using an ex post facto, quantitative, descriptive and causal design methodology, we observed significant relationships between the dependent variable “completion of university degree” and the independent variables “age”, “marital status” and “number of siblings”. In agreement with other researches (Belloc et al, 2010; Diaz Peralta, 2008; Lizarte Simon, 2017) we conclude that university dropout is a multicausal phenomenon that needs to be fully understood. This will allow to maximize the use of resources allocated to higher education and optimize university access, permanence and quality policies.

Abstract:
Case presentation: Male, 56-year-old, previously epileptic started with involuntary movements in the right hand at 47 years old evolving to torso, incoordination, behavioral and cognition disturbs. Paternal grandmother, father and cousin with similar symptoms, in addition to four asymptomatic children. From the onset of symptoms, it progressively worsened presenting involuntary movements, hallucinations, aggressiveness and neck drop. During the neurological examination had frequent cervical falls, tremors at rest in the limbs, and mood swings. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was with atrophy of the caudate nucleus and putamen. Genetic test for Huntington’s Disease without evidence of characteristic expansion of the disease and Huntington Like 2 Test (Junctophilin-3) compatible with characteristic expansion of the disease. Discussion: Huntington’s Disease Like-2 has an autosomal dominant character. A rare disease related to repetitive mutations of cytosine-thymineguanine in the Junctophilin-3 gene. Frequently among 29–41-year-olds and represented by progressive movement disorders, dementia and psychiatric alterations and survival rate of 10 to 20 years after the onset of symptoms. Atrophy of the caudate and cerebral cortex is identified in cranial MRI. Diagnosis’ based on genetic testing and treatment is symptomatic in addition to genetic counseling. Conclusion: In this case the patient presented progressive movement disorders in addition to psychiatric and cognitive alterations as other family members without previous diagnosis of Huntington disease-like 2. Due to the rarity of the disease beside the genetic chance of hereditary cases follow-up with a specialist for symptomatic family members had been requested in addition to genetic counseling since 50% of siblings are at risk of developing the disease.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper uses data from the Mexican Family Life Survey to estimate the impact of a household member's migration to the United States on the cognitive development of children remaining in Mexico. While there is no developmental effect of a child's sibling migrating to the United States, there is an adverse effect when another household member-typically the child's parent- migrates. This is particularly true for pre-school to early-school-age children with older siblings, for whom the effect of parental migration is comparable to speaking an indigenous language at home or having a mother with very low educational attainment. Additionally, household-member migration to the United States affects how children spend their time in ways that may influence and/or be influenced by cognitive development.

Osorio, Itzel, Camillie Delevaux, Ricardo Perez-Cuevas, et al. Associated Factors of Healthy Lifestyle in the Bahamas. Inter-American Development Bank, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0009376.

Full text
Abstract:
The Bahamas faces critical challenges due to an increase in chronic diseases (CDs). Overweight and obesity are on the rise among all age groups. In addition, the prevalence of raised blood glucose is 13% and that of high blood pressure is 31%. CDs are responsible for 45% of deaths in the country. The Ministry of Health has been implementing programs and interventions to slow the growth of CDs. These programs focus on tackling risk factors and developing both the National Dietary Guidelines and the nutrition interventions implemented in primary care facilities and in the community. This study is justifiable as it will help gain an in-depth understanding of the current patterns of healthy lifestyle among the Bahamian population to inform national efforts to address the growing problem of CDs. The objective of this study was to analyse and identify the determinants associated with healthy lifestyle in The Bahamas. The study was a secondary analysis of the 2013 Household Expenditure Survey (BHES-2013). The survey covered 2,123 households that were randomly selected throughout the country. The healthy lifestyle module registered data about eating habits and leisure time activities, such as exercising or watching television. The dependent variable selected for this study was the healthy lifestyle index (HLI), composed of four domains: healthy nutrition, healthy screen time, regular physical activity, and non-secondhand smoke. We find that a significant proportion of Bahamian children and adults require additional actions to facilitate improvement of their healthy lifestyle. Less than 8% eat fruits and vegetables three times per day, only one-third watch TV or play computer video games less than two hours per day, and only 30% practice regular physical activity. Teenagers tend to be sedentary. Lower-income level groups were less sedentary and had less screen time than upper-income level groups. Also, a child living in an extended family (two or more siblings) had a greater probability of living a healthy lifestyle. Similarly, being an adult (age 20 to 64 years) and being married or having a partner were associated with a greater likelihood of leading a healthy way of life.
