1960- 1980年期间，用三次连续的全国调查（NHES周期I、NHANES I和NHANES II）的数据，对18-34岁的白色和黑人男性的体重指数（BMI）和皮褶厚度与教育和收入水平之间关系的长期趋势进行了研究。拟合统计模型，以评估平均BMI随时间变化的教育或收入水平。平均BMI几乎没有长期变化。在白色和黑人男性中，平均BMI和教育之间从轻微的正相关到负相关的长期变化主要表现为最低教育水平的平均BMI增加。在此期间，收入水平和平均BMI之间的轻微正相关几乎保持不变。黑人和白色男性的平均BMI相似。这些研究结果进行了比较和对比，从一个类似的研究，年轻女性。
Secular trends in the relationship of body mass index (BMI) and skinfold thickness to educational and income levels were examined for white and black men aged 18-34 y over the period 1960-80 with data from three successive national surveys: NHES Cycle I, NHANES I, and NHANES II. Statistical models were fitted to assess the variability in mean BMI over time within levels of education or income. There were few secular changes in mean BMI. In both white and black men a secular change from a slight positive association between mean BMI and education to a negative association was characterized chiefly by an increase in mean BMI at the lowest educational level. A slight positive association between income level and mean BMI persisted almost unchanged over this period. Mean BMI was similar for black and white men. These findings are compared and contrasted with those from a similar study for young women.
