초록

본 연구는 광주지역 중학생의 영양지식과 식습관을 조사하여 가정 교과에서 중학생의 건강한 식습관 확립을 위한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 광주광역시 중학생을 대상으로 편의표본추출법을 사용하여 설문 조사를 실시하여 330부를 SPSS(Statistics Package for the Social Science, Ver. 20.0 for window) 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 중학생이 영양지식을 습득하는 경로는 학교 교과 시간이 31.82%로 가장 많았다. 둘째, 영양지식은 14.33점(20점 만점)으로 양호한 편이었고, 성별에 따른 영양지식은 '식품' 영역에서 여학생이 남학생보다 높았으며(p<.05), 학년에 따른 영양지식은 3학년이 1, 2학년보다 높았다(p<.001). 셋째, 식습관은 69.75점(100점 만점)으로 보통 수준이었고, 성별에 따른 식습관은 남학생이 여학생보다 높았다(p<.05). 특히 '하루 세 끼를 규칙적으로 먹는다'(p<.01), '아침 식사를 거르지 않는다'(p<.01), '단 음식을 자주 먹지 않는다'(p<.01), '학교생활 외에 운동을 규칙적으로 한다'(p<.001)에서 남학생이 여학생보다 높았다. 학년에 따른 식습관은 '식사를 준비해 준 사람에게 감사하며 먹는다'(p<.01), '매끼 곡류를 먹는다'(p<.01)에서 3학년이 높았다. 넷째, 영양지식 정도에 따른 식습관은 영양지식이 '상'과 '중'인 그룹의 식습관이 양호하였고, 영양지식이 낮으면 식습관 점수도 낮았다. 이상의 결과로 학교 교과 시간에 식생활교육을 담당하고 있는 가정과 교사는 보다 큰 사명감과 자부심을 가지고 중학생의 영양지식과 식습관의 향상을 위해 노력해야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the nutritional knowledge and eating behavior of middle school students in Gwangju area in order to provide basic data for the development of home economics curriculum that can help the students form healthy eating habits. For this purpose, a self-administered questionnaire was distributed to middle school students in Gwangju area. A total of 330 questionnaires were collected by convenience sampling and analyzed using SPSS(Statistics Package for the Social Science) Version 20.0 for Windows. Results of this study are as follows. First, school curriculum session ranked top(31.82%) on the list of sources for middle school students to acquire nutrition knowledge. Second, the mean score of nutrition knowledge of all respondents was moderately high(14.33 points out of maximum 20 points). In terms of nutrition knowledge by gender, female students had a higher level of nutrition knowledge in the 'Food' domain than their male counterparts(p<0.05). With regard to nutrition knowledge by grade, Grade 9 showed a higher score than Grade 7 and 8(p<0.001). Third, the mean score of eating behavior of all respondents was at an average level(69.75 out of 100 points). In terms of eating behavior by gender, male students showed a higher score than their female counterparts(p<0.05). In particular, male students had higher scores than female students for the following items: "I exercise regularly after school"(p<0.001); "I regularly eat meal three times per day"(p<0.01); "I don't skip breakfast"(p<0.01); and "I don't eat sweet food often"(p<0.01). In terms of eating behavior by grade, Grade 9 showed higher scores than Grades 7 and 8 for the following items: "I eat meal out of thankfulness for those who have prepared food"(p<0.01) and "I eat grains for every meal"(p<0.01). Finally, with regard to eating behavior depending on the level of nutrition knowledge, the 'Upper' and 'Middle' groups had higher scores for eating behavior than the 'Lower' group, indicating that a lower level of nutrition knowledge resulted in a lower score in eating behavior. Based on the above results, home economics teachers responsible for dietary education should have a greater sense of mission and pride and make more efforts to improve nutrition knowledge and eating behavior of middle school students.
