Abstract

Purpose: Obesity can lead to several chronic diseases. With a continuous increase in the obesity rates, sustainable healthy weight management among growing adolescents has become essential. This study was conducted to examine the relationship between obesity-related factors and creative convergence ability. This could form the basis for convergence education for the sustainable healthy weight management of adolescents. Methods: Data were collected from 430 adolescents in Daegu, Gyeongbuk, and Gyeonggi regions using a self-administered 5-Likert questionnaire from November to December 2020. Results: The average score of the male students was higher than that of the female students in terms of healthy weight management convergence awareness, creativity, convergence thinking ability, self-efficacy, exercise, and dietary diversity. On the other hand, the dietary restraint score and the number of weight loss attempts were higher in the female students. Dietary restraint, disinhibition scores and weight loss attempts were higher in obese adolescents compared to underweight adolescents. It was found that dietary restraint, convergence thinking ability, problem-solving ability, exercise, and dietary diversity factors had a positive effect on healthy weight management convergence awareness. Healthy weight management convergence awareness, exercise, meal amount management, junk food management, weight loss belief, and weight loss trial experience had a positive effect on dietary restraint. Convergence thinking ability, weight loss experience, and obesity factors had a positive effect on dietary disinhibition. Conclusion: The sustainable healthy weight management education of adolescents is based on weight management knowledge and awareness of convergence, and must include gender differences. Thus, the problem-solving ability for healthy weight management can be creatively cultivated to enhance self-efficacy.

본 연구는 청소년의 건강 체중관리를 통한 창의·융합역량 강화를 위해 건강 체중관리 융합인식과 체중관리 관련 식행동 및 창의·융합역량 요인과의 관련성을 살펴보고자 대구·경북과 경기지역 청소년 430명을 대상으로 2020년 11월에서 12월까지 5점척도의 자기기입식 설문조사로 실시되었다. 건강 체중관리 융합인식, 창의성, 융합적 사고력, 자기효능감, 운동, 식이다양성 요인은 남학생의 평균점수가 여학생보다 높은 반면, 체중관리 관련 절제 식행동과 탈억제 식행동 점수, 체중감량 시도경험은 여학생이 남학생보다 높았다. 체중관리 관련 절제 식행동과 탈억제 식행동 점수와 체중감량 시도경험은 비만 청소년이 저체중 청소년보다 높았지만, 식사량관리, 체중감량 신념과 관심은 저체중 청소년이 비만 청소년에 비해 높았다. 건강 체중관리 융합인식 요인에는 체중관리 관련 절제 식행동, 융합적 사고력, 문제해결력, 운동, 식이다양성 요인이 양의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 체중관리 관련 절제 식행동 요인에는 건강 체중관리 융합인식, 운동, 식사량관리, 정크푸드관리, 체중감량 신념, 체중감량 시도경험 요인이 양의 영향을 미치는 반면, 체중감량 관심 요인은 음의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 체중관리 관련 탈억제 식행동 요인에는 융합적 사고력, 체중감량 시도경험, 비만도 요인이 양의 영향을 주는 반면, 자기효능감, 식사량관리, 정크푸드관리, 체중관리 지식요인은 음의 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 청소년기의 지속가능한 건강 체중관리 교육은 체중관리 지식과 융합적 사고력 및 인식을 기반으로 하여 건강 체중관리라는 문제해결능력을 창의적으로 함양할 수 있도록 자기효능감을 증진하는 방향으로 성별의 특성을 고려하여 창의·융합교육과 연결되어 이루어진다면 일석이조의 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것이다.
