Abstract

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of the subjective perception to the nutrient intake and mental health of Korean adolescents by the residual method. This study was based on data from the 5th and 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2010-2014) of the 2,961 total subjects(male 1,548, female 1,413, aged 12 to 19 years). The nutrient intake was collected by using the 24 hr recall method and mental health and BMI were collected by the health interview survey and physical examination research. An analysis of the relationship between the subjective perception and BMI showed that the proportion of those with a distorted perception of their body type was the highest among adolescents with normal weight(p for trend, <.001). Especially, regarding the subjective body type, the proportion of adolescents who perceived themselves overweight was significantly higher among females as compared to that among males (p for trend, <.001). An analysis of nutrient intake status against the subjective perception showed that the group of adolescents who perceived themselves overweight had the lowest scores on the index of nutritional quality (INQ), nutritional adequacy ratio (NAR) and mean adequacy ratio (MAR) (p for trend, <.001). With respect to the daily intake of major nutrients, adolescents who perceived themselves overweight consumed the lowest amounts of total energy (p for trend, <.01) and carbohydrate (p for trend,<.001). An analysis of the mental health status of the adolescents showed that those who perceived themselves overweight had the highest levels of stress recognition and depression (p<0.01). In conclusion, the adolescents' subjective perception is associated with their nutrient intake and mental health. Therefore, some educational programs are desirable to help the adolescents to have their desirable subjective perception and to increase their satisfaction with their body type.

본 연구에서는 청소년들을 대상으로 주관적인 체형 인식에 따른 영양소 섭취 문제 및 정신건강 문제를 분석하였다. 제 5기, 6기(2010-2014년) 국민건강영양조사를 바탕으로 연구되었으며, 만 12~18세의 청소년 3,834명을 추출하여, 결측치를 제외한 총 2,961명(남자 1,548명, 여자 1,413명)을 대상으로 분석하였다. 영양조사 자료는 24시간 회상법을 통한 면접조사를 통해 수집되었으며, 정신건강과 BMI는 건강설문조사와 검진조사를 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 자료 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대상자의 주관적 체형인식과 BMI와의 관련성을 살펴본 결과, 남녀 모두 정상체중인 경우 체형을 왜곡되게 인식하는 비율이 높았으며, 특히 자신을 과체중 체형이라 인식하는 대상자가 남학생보다 여학생이 유의적으로 높았다(p<.001). 둘째, 대상자의 주관적 체형인식에 따른 영양소섭취상태를 살펴본 결과, 남녀 모두 과체중인식군이 영양질적지수, 영양소 적정비에서 가장 낮은 수치를 나타냈다(p<0.01). 셋째, 대상자의 주요 영양소에 대한 1일 섭취량을 살펴본 결과, 남녀 모두 과체중인식군이 전체 에너지 섭취량, 탄수화물 섭취량에서 가장 낮은 수치를 나타냈다(p<0.01). 넷째, 대상자들의 주관적 체형인식에 따른 정신건강상태를 살펴본 결과, 대상자 모두 과체중인식군에서 스트레스 인지율과 우울감 정도가 가장 높은 수치를 보였다(p<0.01). 본 연구의 결과 청소년의 주관적 체형 인식이 영양 섭취와 정신건강에 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 청소년기에 바람직한 신체 이미지상를 갖고 자신의 체형에 대한 만족감을 높이며 동시에 올바른 식생활을 할 수 있도록 가정 학교 사회에서의 올바른 체형 인식과 관련된 교육이 적절하게 이루어져야할 것으로 여겨진다.
