The Self‐efficacy Scale for Children’s PA examined children’s perceived self‐efficacy in overcoming barriers to achieving weight goals and developing positive alternatives to unhealthy habits. The Child Eating Disorder Examination assessed weight and shape concerns. The Coping with Teasing Scale measured the adequacy of children’s responses to teasing.

The levels of social problems of the children were evaluated by using the social problem subscale of the Achenbach CBCL‐Parent Version , BMI was calculated from weight, which was measured to the nearest one‐fourth pound (0.1kg) on a Detecto balance‐beam scale (Cardinal Scale Manufacturing, Webb City, MI), and height, which was measured to the nearest one‐eighth inch (0.3cm) with a stadiometer. The BMI z scores of the children were determined using the age‐specific and sex‐specific median BMI , NI , NI , Percentage overweight was defined as percentage above median BMI , NI , NI , Unclear how they were measured.
