Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional status of elementary and middle school students by gender with an emphasis on comparison of nutritional intake between weekday and weekend. Survey construct included one 24-hour diet recall and two diet records, short food frequency questionnaire, and anthropometry. Eating behaviors and nutritional intake were largely different for four groups divided by age and gender: ME, FE, MM, and FM. Frequency of consumption of healthful foods was significantly higher in the ME and FE groups. The highest and lowest scores for frequency of eating with parents were observed in the FE and FM groups, respectively. The amount of consumption of food groups was lower on weekends than on weekdays and this trend was more prominent in elementary schoolers compared with middle schoolers. In terms of food group consumption as well as energy and nutrient intake, the ME group showed the greatest differences between weekday and weekend, followed by FE, MM, and FM, in descending order. A significantly higher amount of potassium, phosphorus, and calcium was consumed on weekdays than on the weekend in the ME and FE groups. The amount of energy and nutrient intake was smallest in the FM group; however, the difference between weekday and weekend was minimal as well. In comparison of the subjects' energy and nutrient intake with their Korean Dietary Reference Intakes values (%KDRI), the MM group showed the most undesirable results for energy, protein, dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin $B_1$, vitamin $B_2$, niacin, vitamin $B_6$, calcium, and zinc. Overall, findings indicated that nutritional intake status may differ between weekday and weekend for elementary and middle schoolers by gender, suggesting that youth may benefit from nutritional education programs that stress the impact of gender and weekend effect on their dietary intake.

부산 및 경남 일부 지역의 남녀 초등학생 (4~6학년)과 중학생 (2~3학년)을 대상으로, 24시간 회상법과 식사기록법을 이용하여 수집한 식품섭취조사 내용을 분석하였고, 연령과 성별에 따른 네 군 (ME, FE, MM, FM)의 식행동과 영양소 섭취 실태가 주중과 주말에 유의한 차이가 있는 지 살펴보았다. 주요한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 부모와 함께 식사한 횟수, 혼자 저녁을 먹은 횟수, 친구와 외식한 횟수, 건강에 유익한 식품 및 건강에 유익하지 않은 식품의 섭취 수준, 간식구매 비용 등을 고려해볼 때 FE가 중학생 (MM, FM)에 비해 바람직한 식행동을 나타내었다. 2) 식품군별 섭취량은 주중에 비해 주말에 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 이러한 현상은 중학생에 비해 초등학생에서 더 뚜렷하였다. 특히 초등학생의 우유 및 유제품과 채소류의 주말 섭취량은 주중에 비해 현저히 감소하였다. 3) ME는 총에너지를 비롯한 대부분의 영양소 섭취량이 주말에 감소하였고, FE와 MM은 칼슘, 인, 아연, 나이아신, 비타민 $B_6$ 섭취량이 주말에 감소하였다. FM은 에너지 및 영양소 섭취 수준이 가장 낮았던 반면에 주중과 주말의 차이도 적었다. 4) MM이 초등학생 (ME, FE)에 비해 주중의 에너지, 단백질, 칼슘, 식이섬유, 아연, 비타민 A, 비타민 $B_1$, 나이아신, 비타민 $B_6$의 %KDRIs가 유의하게 낮았다. 또한 MM이 FE에 비하여 주말의 에너지, 칼슘, 아연, 비타민 $B_1$, 비타민 $B_2$, 나이아신, 비타민 $B_6$에 대한 %KDRIs가 유의하게 낮았다. 모든 군에서 칼슘의 섭취 부족이 심각한 것으로 나타났다. 6) 종합해보면 식행동과 식품 및 영양소 섭취에 있어 초등학생과 중학생의 연령과 성별에 따른 차이가 드러났으며 MM은 식행동과 식품 및 영양소 섭취가 가장 불량한 것으로 보인다. 따라서 초등학생과 중학생을 위한 영양교육 현장에서는 연령과 성별에 따른 식행동의 상이성, 주중과 주말의 차이 등을 고려함으로써 효과적인 영양중재가 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
