Abstract Background: Previous studies suggested the relationship between SES and BMI is different in developing countries and developed countries and lifestyle is medication between SES and BMI. Little research focused on relationship between SES and BMI among the middle and the elderly and gender-disparity of mediation of lifestyle. Methods: The data for this study were obtained from the 2015 follow-up data of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Structural equation model (SEM) was used to explore the relationships among SES, lifestyles and BMI. Results: Among men, the effect of SES on sleeping time and smoking were not statistically significant. SES had a direct positive effect on BMI (b=0.306, P<0.001). Smoking had a direct positive effect on BMI (b=0.180, P<0.001). Among women, SES had a direct negative effect on physical activity (b=-0.048, p<0.05), a direct positive on sleeping time (b=0.048, P<0.05), smoking (b=0.098, P<0.001) and BMI (b=0.168, P<0.001). Physical activity had a direct negative effect on BMI (b=-0.050, P<0.01). Sleeping time (b=0.066, p<0.001) and smoking (b=0.088, p<0.001) both had a direct positive effect on BMI. Conclusion: A positive relationship was found between SES and BMI both among middle and old men and women. The gender-disparity of mediation of lifestyle was existed.

Fashion companies are trying to increase the efficiency of their communication with consumers by providing information on sustainable activities or product levels. This study explored the effects of the perceived sustainability level of products offered by sports brands. An online survey was conducted of consumers in their 20s and 30s, and a total of 316 questionnaires were used for the analysis. The structural equation model analysis using AMOS showed that the perceived sustainability level had a positive effect on purchase intention and a negative effect on perceived skepticism. Furthermore, perceived skepticism was confirmed to have a negative effect on purchase intention. By verifying the moderating effect of the perceived brand reputation, it was confirmed that the effect of the perceived sustainability level on purchase intention and the influence of the perceived skepticism on purchase intention differ between high and low brand reputation groups. When the perceived brand reputation is high, the perceived sustainability level has only a direct effect on purchase intention, whereas when the perceived brand reputation is low, only the indirect effect of perceived skepticism appears. This study contributes to the literature and practice by verifying that perceived skepticism plays an important role in the purchasing behavior of sustainable products in fashion.
