“…Additionally, the association between poor sleep patterns and the consumption of energy-dense food items such as desserts or sweets, which leads to obesity, is mediated by psychological factors such as mood and subjective stress [ 21 ]. The psychological problems experienced by international students could deteriorate sleep quality [ 9 , 10 ]. These factors could exacerbate the eating habit-related problems that may occur after studying abroad [ 6 , 7 ] and could lead to obesity in international students.…”

“…Acculturative stress consists of psychological variables and social stress, such as discrimination, homesickness, perceived hate, fear, insecurity, stress due to change or culture shock, and guilt, all of which can result in poor health status [ 7 , 8 ]. In particular, increased stress status is associated with poor sleep [ 9 , 10 ].…”

“…Sleep patterns, including sleep duration and quality, and sleep problems are related to health status, such as obesity [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ], cardiovascular disease [ 15 ], type 2 diabetes [ 11 ], and mental health [ 9 ]. In particular, it is well-established that poor sleep quality influences dietary quality or energy intake, which affects obesity [ 13 , 14 ].…”

International students are experiencing health problems due to many lifestyle changes, such as those in dietary and sleep patterns. We conducted this study to identify the associations among sleep patterns, changes in eating habits after studying abroad, and overweight or obesity in international students. In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed data on health-related variables, changes in eating habits after studying abroad, and sleep patterns that were collected from 225 international students in South Korea. Approximately half of the participants experienced poor sleep (47.6%). After adjusting for covariates such as age, gender, nationality, and acculturative stress, the subjects who had poor sleep quality were 2.020-fold (adjusted odds ratio, 95% confidence interval = 1.045–3.906) more likely to be overweight and obese than those who had good sleep quality. There were significant differences in changes of eating habits after studying abroad according to sleep quality (p < 0.001). When subjects were stratified into groups according to changes in eating habits after studying abroad, the risk of overweight and obesity increased in those with poor sleep quality but not in those with good sleep quality among subjects who had changes in bad eating habits. However, the risk of overweight and obesity did not differ among subjects with changes in good eating habits regardless of their sleep quality.

“…In the DEAS, self-rated health is measured by a five-item scale where respondents can rate their health as ‘very good’, ‘good’, ‘fair’, ‘poor’ or ‘very poor’. 5 For the analysis, a dummy variable was generated, which equals a value of 1 if the original variable representing self-rated health reports 1 'very good' or 2 'good', otherwise it has a value of 0 , (see Balia & Jones, 2008 ; Contoyannis & Jones, 2004 ; Oftedal et al, 2019 ). Sport activity was reported by respondents on a six-item scale with the categories 1 'daily', 2 'several times a week', 3 'once a week', 4 'one to three times a month', 5 'infrequent' or 6 'never' ( Deutsches Zentrum für Altersfragen, 2015 ).…”

Background This study aims to generate more comprehensive knowledge regarding underlying mechanisms of health production in middle and older age by focusing on perception of aging in the relation between sport activity and self-rated health. More differentiated information can be generated by using more age-specific data and applying advanced empirical methods. Methods Panel data from the German Ageing Survey (DEAS) (n = 1027) is used, whereby individuals are included, that participated at least in two waves. First, a blockwise fixed effects logistic regression model is carried out, which allows to investigate mediation as well as moderation effects and controls for time invariant unobserved heterogeneity. Additionally, two recursive bivariate probit models are conducted to identify further indirect pathways. Findings A mediating and moderating effect of perception of aging regarding self-rated health is found in the fixed effects model. Indirect pathways of perception of aging and retirement over sport activity (mediator) are confirmed in the recursive bivariate probit models. Conclusion The results highlight the complexity of the underlying mechanisms as well as the importance of individual and needs-based designed health promotion. Here, public health policy should not solely focus on sport activity, rather it should include target group specific strategies to shape individual perceptions of aging towards a more positive view on aging, while considering the heterogeneity of middle and older age groups.

BackgroundA strong association between individual health behaviors and health outcomes has been emphasized by previous analyses. However, how individual health behaviors can be classified into health lifestyles and the manner in which health lifestyles have impacted Chinese oldest-old’s health status are largely unknown.MethodsAnalyzing the 2014 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), latent class analysis was applied to identify predominant health lifestyles among Chinese oldest-old aged 85 to 105.ResultsFour distinct classes representing health lifestyles emerged. Health lifestyles were found to be strongly associated with Chinese oldest-old’s health outcomes which were measured by self-rated health, functional independence, cognitive function and chronic diseases, even after controlling for demographic features as well as individual and parental socioeconomic disadvantage. Findings also showed a convergence of health disparities caused by demographic and SES characteristics in very old age.ConclusionsChinese oldest-old showed four predominant health lifestyles with only 21.9% of the sample had consistently healthy lifestyle behaviors. The significant influence of health lifestyles on health remained after age 85, .highlighting the importance of promoting health lifestyles to advance the oldest-old’s health status.
