Data were collected from youth, parents, and teachers using a combination of parental, youth, and teacher self-report and semistructured interview.

Greater depressive symptoms in childhood were associated with increased adult BMI among boys (p = .02). Among adolescents, depression and sex interact in the association with adult BMI (p = .01).
