Lifestyle

Lifestyle assesses lifestyle behaviors such as physical activities, smoking, alcohol use, substance use, caffeine consumption and gambling behavior.

Questions in different measurement waves are not identical. For example, measurement wave 9-10 years includes a few items on the amount of food eaten per day, including fruit, vegetables, fish, whole grain products, sugar-sweetened beverages (per week), and whether the participant follows a low-salt diet. The Covid-19 measurement wave includes items on whether the diet changed during covid. For detailed information, please refer to the corresponding questionnaires in Generation R Wiki.
