Similar patterns emerge in the 1994 data. It is also important to note that these patterns differ by sex. In data not shown here, the early life effects on overweight were especially strong among women, and the life course patterns of smoking somewhat more powerful among men. 58 In that study, lack of exercise and high body mass index showed both childhood and adult socioeconomic effects, while smoking was only influenced by adult socioeconomic position. Such direct international comparisons are potentially complicated by different time periods under study, the accuracy of the early life information (administrative records versus subject recall), selective survival, and the use of different socioeconomic indicators.
