Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the fast food consumption patterns of secondary school students in Busan. Secondary school students in Busan area were asked in a survey about their perception and attitudes towards fast food (n=968, response rate: 92%). Most respondents answered that they consume fast food once a month because it is fast, easily accessible and tasty. Although they perceived fast food as unhealthy and less nutritious, they were less aware of its effect on their eating patterns: a clear indication of their limited knowledge on dietary impact. The more knowledgeable respondents were about nutrition and health, the less likely they were to choose fast food over other meals. However, respondents who had little or no knowledge about the nutritional factors of fast food accounted for 43.1%. Our study suggests that development of effective nutrition and health education is crucial to adolescent population. This study will enable educators to plan more effective strategies for improving the dietary knowledge of the adolescent population.
