Inuit communities in Northern Quebec (Canada) are exposed to environmental contaminants, particularly to mercury, lead and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).

Högman, Johan; Augustsson, Christian – Health Education Journal, 2023
Aim: As more children become increasingly physically inactive, efforts to reverse this negative trend are growing.

We test the "formative years" model that underscores the importance of childhood experiences for political development against the "impressionable years" model that asserts the primacy of lessons learned during adolescence. To assess the relative merits of these…

Logistic regression analyses, with…
