This study investigated the correlation between smartphone addiction and eating behaviors of 288 elementary school students (fifth and sixth grades) in the Ansan area. Addiction and normal groups consisted of 29 (10.1%) and 259 students (89.9%). Average usage time of the smartphone addiction group was higher than that of the normal group (P<0.001). Percentages of using a smartphone when eating meals as well as skipping meals due to using a smartphone were also higher in the addiction group than the normal group (P<0.01). Degree of reduction of physical activity and sleep disorders due to using a smartphone were higher in the addiction group than the normal group (P<0.001). However, nutritional knowledge related to protein and dietary life scored lower in the addiction group than the normal group (P<0.05). Correlation between smartphone usage time and eating behaviors was as follows: smartphone usage time on weekdays increased with elevated usage time on weekends in the addiction group (+0.742) (P<0.001) and the normal group (+0.762) (P<0.001). Frequency of snack intake in the addiction group increased with elevated usage time on weekdays (+0.460) (P<0.05). Sleeping time of the normal group decreased with elevated usage time on weekdays (-0.150) (P<0.05), and good eating behaviors decreased with elevated usage time the on weekend (-0.143) (P<0.05). Consequently, smartphone addiction in elementary school students showed negative eating behaviors. Therefore, effective nutritional education programs and national support policy are required to solve problems of unhealthy eating behaviors from smartphone usage in elementary school students.

The present study was performed to analyze the life style and eating behavior of stroke patients and to find the risk factors related to stroke incidence in Daegu and Gyeongbuk Province, Korea. The case subjects (n=100) were selected from newly diagnosed stroke patients at Kyungpook National University Hospital. The control subjects (n=150) were selected from community inhabitants who did not have stroke history and were sex and age-matched with the case subjects. The survey was conducted by individual interviews using questionnaires on the general characteristics, life-style, eating behavior, food intake frequency and food preference. The high body mass index, preexisting diseases such as diabetes and hypertension, stroke family history, smoking, overeating habit and high preference for sweet, greasy and meat foods appeared to be the risk factors for stroke incidence. On the other hand, the results suggest that life style of regular exercise and nonsmoking, food habits of green tea drinking and enough chewing, preference for Korean meal type, high intake frequency for legumes, vegetables, mushrooms, seaweeds, fishes and shell fishes, soy milk and green tea might be the protective factors for the stroke. Therefore, maintenance of healthy weight, the prevention and management of the deteriorative chronic diseases, change of life style and improvement of eating behaviors are considered to be important for stroke prevention.

고지혈증은 유전적인 요인으로 인해 혈액 내에 특정 지질이 증가하여 발생하는 경우도 있지만, 기름진 음식을 많이 섭취하는 서구식 식습관이나 비만, 음주, 운동부족 등에 의해서도 발생한다. 따라서 고지혈증에는 꾸준한 식사 관리가 필수적이다. 고구마는 고지혈증에 좋은 음식으로 칼륨, 엽산, 섬유질 비타민 C가 다량 함유되어 있다.

식습관이나 식품 기호도는 식품의 선택에 있어서 중요한 변수이며 어릴 때 형성이 되는 어린이의 식품 기호도는 부모의 태도에 크게 영향을 받는다. 특히 유아기는 사회적, 인지적 능력이 발달하고 모방을 통하여 학습되는 시기이므로 이 시기의 식품에 대한 올바른 인식과 경험은 평생의 건강을 위해서도 부모의 역할은 중요하다. 근래 과잉 영양과 관련된 비만이 우려되고 있지만 아직도 유아에서는 부적절한 식사패턴으로 인한 영양소 결핍이 문제가 되고 있다. 선행 연구에서 유아나 어린이의 식습관이 부모, 특히 어머니의 영향을 많이 받는다고 지적하고 있지만 상호 관련에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 또한 ‘무엇’과 ‘얼마나 많이’ 등이 중점이 되었던 양적 연구에서 이제는 ‘어떻게’ ‘왜’라는 것에 관심을 두는 사례연구의 중요성이 대두되고 있으므로 본 연구에서는 취학전 아동의 식습관과 영양상태에 관한 질적 연구로써 어머니와의 상호 관련성을 알아보고자 하였다. 대구, 부산지역에 거주하는 4∼7세 유아와 그 어머니(각 15명)를 대상으로 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 실시하고 유아와 1:1면담을 실시하였다. 어머니들의 식품구매에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인은 어머니 자신의 기호도와 편리, 가치관으로 나타났다. 유아와 어머니의 식품기호도를 조사한 결과 좋아하는 식품의 경우 두 군 모두 육류의 선호도가 높았다. 싫어하는 식품은 어머니의 경우에는 ‘없다’가 73%이었으나 유아의 경우에는 ‘야채류’가 73%이었다. 유아와 어머니의 식품 기호도 일치정도는 좋아하는 식품이 67%, 싫어하는 식품이 33%로 나타났다. 유아는 야채류를 싫어한다고 대답하면서도 건강에 좋은 식품을 ‘야채류’라고 생각하고 있었다 유아의 특정 식품의 선호도나 거부의 주된 이유는 ‘맛’이었으며, 유아의 편식습관은 어머니가 간편성 위주, 가족의 기호도 만을 고려하여 식단을 구성하는 것과 관련이 있었다. 조사대상 유아의 33%가 비타민제, 47%가 칼슘제제를 복용하고 있었으며 27%가 근래에 보약을 복용한 경험이 있었다. 어머니들은 영양제나 보약이 유아의 건강 유지에 많은 도움이 된다고 여기고 있었고 어머니의 임신 중 식품섭취나 이유기의 식품경험정도가 어린이의 식품 기호도에 영향을 미친다고 생각하고 있었다. 어머니가 식품구매시 질적으로 고려하는 부분은 건강과 관련된 무농약 식품, 인스턴트 식품 제한, 외식의 절제가 대부분 어머니의 관심사였다. 본 연구에서 어머니는 유아의 식습관과 식품기호도에 크게 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었으며, 유아 영양교육에서 어머니의 참여와 식품에 대한 인식 개선은 유아의 영양수준 개선에 필수적이라고 생각된다.

Management of obesity needs good rapport among pediatrician, parents and children. Through motivational interview, pediatrician should explore practical ways to modify the eating behaviors conducive to obesity. Imbalance between energy intake and consumption contributes to weight gain. Therefore decrease of sedentary behavior (screen time <2 hrs) and increase of physical activity (>60 minutes) is also important in management of obesity. The goal of management is the long-term healthy life though healthy behaviors. Creating a home environment that supports healthy habits and behaviors is an important key to modifying lifestyle behaviors. For example, increasing intake of vegetables and fruits, restriction of sweetened beverage, education of healthy selection of foods, and frequent family dinner may be advisable. Family members should change their own behaviors in order to help their children. Parents should be positive role model and monitor their children authoritatively but not restrictively.

Objective : This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of play on the relationship between toddlers' sleep habits and problem-solving. Methods : In total, 1,734 participants were selected from the 3rd wave of the Panel Study on Korean Children. A structural equation modeling approach was utilized to examine the relationship among toddlers' play, sleep habits, and problem-solving, as well as to investigate the mediating effect of play. Results : The monthly age of the study participants ranged from 23 to 32 months, with 885 (51.0%) boys and 849 (49.0%) girls. The indirect effects of play on problem-solving skills (β = 0.137, p = .006) were statistically significant, but the direct effects of sleep habits on problem-solving skills (β = -.015, p = .871) and the total effect (β = 0.122, p = .057) were not significant. Conclusion : This study indicated that sleep habits did not have a direct effect on problem-solving ability, but that the indirect effects were significant and fully mediated by play. Incorrect sleep habits can negatively affect lifelong development. Therefore, parents would need to be aware of whether their child is developing good sleep habits during the toddler age.
