Summary:ABSTRACT IMPACT: Our research highlights the need for both parental and clinical support to promote PA engagement among higher risk youth with comorbid asthma and obesity; these findings will inform research and clinical efforts in the youth development, prevention science, and clinical psychology fields. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Asthma incidence doubles in youth with obesity. Physical activity (PA) is beneficial for asthma management; however, parental influence on PA levels among youth with asthma and obesity is poorly understood. This study examines the association of parents and PA among youth with asthma and/or obesity, accounting for risk and protective factors. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Data from 5th, 8th, 9th, and 11th-graders were obtained from the 2019 Minnesota Student Survey (N=96,820). Linear regressions examined the impact of parent connectedness on PA across 4 groups (neither asthma nor obesity [OB], asthma only, OB only, comorbid asthma/OB). The p-value for significance was set at p
