우리나라 아동의 비만실태를 파악하기 위한 연구의 일환으로 전국의 국민학교 5학년 10.751명의 체격분포를 조사하였다. 건강기록부를 이용하요 1학년때 부터 학년까의 키, 몸무게를 분석하고 설문지를 이용하여 체격과 관련된 일반 현황 및 식품섭취 빈도를 조사하였다 1)조사대상아의 어머니 중 29%가 직업을 갖고 있었으며 출, 퇴근시간이 어린이의 영양관리를 제대로 할 수 없는 경우가 많았다. 조사대상아의 5.8%가 거의 매일 결식하였으며 건강을 위해 약제를 복용하는 경우가 26%였다. 2)키는 4학년까지는 남학생이 우세 하다가 5학년때는 남학생이 137.1cm, 여학생이 137.6cm 였다. 몸무게는 남녀 각각 31.5kg, 31.2kg였으며 키, 몸무게의 10, 25, 50, 70 ,90percentile 분포에 해당하는 값이 제시되었다. 고학년이 될수록 남학생의 키의 성장속도는 둔화된 반면 여학생은 오히려 증가였다. 몸무게는 학년이 높아지면서 남녀 모두 증가폭이 커졌으며 여학생의 증가폭이 더 컸다. 키와 몸무게를 이용하여 5년간 BMI, RI, RW 갑이 계산되었다. 3) 49% 아동이 우유를 매일 섭취 하였으며 과자, 계란, 아이스크림, 초코렛의 섭취빈도가 높은 반면 치즈, 햄, 두유의 섭취빈도는 매우 낮았다.
