Abstract

This study reports on the development of a dietary education program for Korean young adults in single-person households. The 7th National Health and Nutrition Survey (2016-2018) was used to compare and analyze the dietary behavior of single-person households and multi-person households, and an online survey was conducted on 350 young adults (age 19-39 years) living in Seoul. According to the analysis, single-person households had higher rates of breakfast and eating out than multi-person households, and significantly lower average intake of energy and nutrients (p<0.05). In particular, in the case of single-person households, the lower the frequency of cooking at home, the higher the rate of breakfast and the higher the frequency of eating out and delivery food (p<0.05). Based on the survey, a dietary education program for young adults single-person households was developed by applying the DESIGN six-step procedure and social cognitive theory as a conceptual model. The first session consisted of the health and economic benefits of home-cooked meals, the second session of the importance of the breakfast and the effect of exercise in life, the third session of the importance of balanced nutrition and the principles of a healthy diet, the fourth session of food safety and storage, and the fifth session of social dining. Each session was composed of a combination of theoretical lectures to motivate 'more making and eating healthy home-cooked meals' and cooking practice for improving behavioral performance.

본 연구는 청년 1인가구를 위한 식생활교육 프로그램을 개발하였다. 청년 1인가구의 식생활 요구도 조사를 위해 국민건강영양조사 7기(2016~2018년) 자료를 활용하여 1인가구와 다인가구의 식생활 행태를 비교분석을 하였고, 청년 1인가구의 식생활 행태를 분석하기 위해 서울에 거주하는 청년 1인가구(만19~39세) 350명을 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석한 결과, 1인가구는 다인가구보다 아침 결식률과 외식빈도가 높았으며, 에너지 및 영양소 평균섭취량이 유의적으로 낮았다(p<0.05). 특히 청년 1인가구의 경우 가정에서의 조리 빈도가 낮을수록 아침 결식률이 높았고 외식과 배달음식 섭취빈도가 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 이런 요구도 조사를 바탕으로 식생활교육 이론모델로 사회인지이론을 선정하였고, 청년 1인가구를 위한 식생활교육 프로그램을 DESIGN 6단계 절차를 적용하여 개발하였다. 1차시는 집밥의 건강향상 효과와 경제적 이익, 2차시 아침의 중요성과 생활 속 운동의 효과, 3차시 균형 잡힌 영양섭취의 중요성과 건강한 식단 작성의 원리, 4차시는 식품안전과 보관, 5차시는 소셜다이닝의 효과의 내용으로 구성하였다. 각 차시는 '건강한 집밥을 더 많이 만들어 먹기'라는 동기유발을 위한 이론강의와 행동수행력 향상을 위한 조리실습을 결합하여 구성되었다.
