The purpose of this study was to determine the mediating effect of perceived stress in the influence of obesity awareness on health behavior, and to verify the moderating effect of nationality between Koreans and Chinese in the influence of obesity awareness on health behavior through perceived stress. Data were collected from August 26 to October 11, 2019, through in-person questionnaire surveys administered to 140 adult participants from a university and general hospital in Seoul, South Korea and 140 adult participants from a university and general hospital in Shenyang, China. Study results revealed that, the obesity awareness of participants had a significant effect on their health behavior, and the mediating effect of perceived stress was significant in the influence of obesity awareness on health behavior. According to nationality, a significant difference was shown between Koreans and Chines in the way obesity awareness directly affected health behavior. However, the indirect effect of obesity awareness on health behavior through perceived stress was not controlled. These results showed that the obesity awareness of Chinese adults had a greater effect on their health behavior than Koreans. In addition, obesity awareness increased perceived stress and decreased positive health behavior in both Koreans and Chinese adults. Therefore, managing the stress caused by obesity is an important factor in increasing positive health behavior.

The present study aimed to examine the mediation effect of identity development between perceived parental academic achievement pressure (PPAAP) and mental health. Specifically, we examined whether the relation between PPAAP and mental health is mediated by the positive or negative aspects of identity development. Participants were 110 Korean college students. They completed online self-report questionnaires that included PPAAP, identity development, personal well-being, and depression. We found that PPAAP was negatively related to personal well-being and positively related to depression. Moreover, the relation between PPAAP and mental health was mediated only by the negative aspects of identity development. In other words, PPAAP was related to the negative aspects of identity development, which, in turn, was negatively associated with mental health. This study contributes to the literature in that it proposed identity development as a mediator between PPAAP and mental health and found that the negative, not positive, aspects of identity development mediated the relation. We suggest that institutional interventions that help develop identity can be an effective way to mitigate the negative impacts of PPAAP on mental health of children living in the highly competitive Korean society. Limitations and future research directions are also discussed.
