          Abstract

          Little is known about the perception of overweight, expressed as a level of concern, of Pacific parents and its relevance to children's weight. The aim of this study was to analyse data collected at birth and four and six years in the Pacific Island Families Study (PIFS) to investigate the relationship between parental perceptions of child weight status and actual weight status.
