Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate nutrition knowledge, dietary habits, health related life style and health condition of 247 male and 244 female students at K University in Chuncheon. The results of the survey are summarized as follows: The average nutrition knowledge score and dietary habit score were 10.79 and 19.38 for male, and 10.89 and 19.48 for female, respectively. The percentage of those who smoked, drank and exercised regularly were 32.0%, 93.9%, 47.0% for male, and 6.1%, 91.8%, 24.6% for female, respectively. The health scores of the female (43.02) were significantly lower than those of the male (46.26) (p<0.001). On female students, significant correlation was found between dietary habits score and health score (p<0.01). College students are in early stage of adult life and their dietary habits, health related life style and health condition will be continued to their later life. This study may provide basic information on the eating habits and health related life styles of college students.

본 연구는 춘천지역 K대학 학생 491명(남 247, 여 244)을 대상으로 영양지식, 식습관, 건강관련 생활습관 및 건강상태를 알아보고자 하였으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 영양지식 점수는 남학생이 10.79점, 여학생은 10.89점(20점 만점)으로 조사대상자들의 전반적인 영양지식은 부족하였으며, 식습관 점수는 남녀 각각 19.38점, 19.48점(30점 만점)으로 우유제품의 섭취가 매우 부족하였고, 영양적으로 불균형한 식사, 불규칙한 식사를 하는 등의 문제가 제기되었다. 흡연율은 남녀 각각 32.0%, 6.1%로 나타나 남녀 간에 유의한 차이(p<0.001)를 보였고, 술은 대상자의 92.9%가 마시며 남녀 모두 한 달에 $2\sim3$회 정도 마시는 경우가 가장 많았다. 운동은 남학생의 47.0%, 여학생의 24.6%만이 한다고 했으며(p<0.001), 횟수는 남녀 모두 1주일에 $1\sim2$회 정도가 가장 많았다. 건강에 대한 관심도는 여학생보다 남학생이 높았고(p<0.05), 본인이 느끼는 건강상태는 남녀 모두 보통이라고 응답한 것이 가장 많았으나 남녀 간에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 임상증세를 건강점수로 알아본 결과 남학생은 46.26점, 여학생은 43.02점(60점 만점)으로 남학생이 여학생보다 유의하게(p<0.001) 건강한 것으로 나타났으며 흡연, 음주 및 운동여부는 건강점수에 직접적으로 큰 영향을 주지는 않는 것으로 나타났다. 영양지식, 식습관, 건강점수와의 상관관계에서는 남녀 모두 아주 약한 상관관계를 보였으며 여학생의 경우 식습관과 건강점수와의 관계에서 통계적으로 유의함(p<0.01)을 보였다. 이상의 결과를 살펴볼 때 본 조사대상자들은 현재 자신들이 건강하다는 생각으로 건강에 대한 관심이 적었고 음주, 흡연, 운동 등 건강과 관련한 생활습관이 현 시점에서 직접적으로 건강에 미치는 영향은 없는 것으로 나타났으나 과다한 음주와 흡연, 운동부족 등은 부적합한 식생활의 원인이 될 수 있으며 청소년기의 잘못된 식행동으로 인한 나쁜 영향이 청소년기에서 즉시 나타나지 않는다 할지라도 중 장년기에 이르러 건강에 큰 장애요인이 될 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 대학생들에게 지나친 흡연과 음주의 폐해를 인식시키는 교육과 아울러 균형된 식사, 올바른 식품선택, 건강한 생활습관에 관한 교육으로 보다 건강한 생활을 영위할 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다.
