This descriptive study was designed to identify the factors associated with weight control behaviors among 273 high school girls with normal body weight. The objectives of the study were ⅰ) to evaluate subjective obesity and satisfaction with the body shape, ⅱ) to describe the weight control behaviors and the motivation, ⅲ) to reveal the relationships between the weight control behaviors and BMI (Body Mass Index), iv) to investigate the relationships between the weight control behaviors and subjective obesity and satisfaction with the body shape, and v) to investigate the relationships between the weight control behaviors and family support. The results showed that 62.6% of the adolescent girls with normal weight perceived that they were fatty and 9.9% thought they were obese. Seventy-five percent of them were not satisfied with their body shape. Eighty percent of the participants reported the main motivation of weight control was to have an attractive appearance. In this study, self-reported weight control methods included dieting (64.8%, skipping or reducing meals), exercise (36.6%), and special dieting (20.1%) such as eating an increased amount of juice or vegetables. It was shown that the subjects who were not satisfied with their body shape and perceived themselves as fatty or obese were active in exercise, diet, and other special diets. Subjects who were on diets and special diets had a higher level of BMI than who were not on diet and special diet. Subjects who exercise had a lower level of BMI than who did not exercised. Family support was significantly related to exercise behavior. The research suggested that there is a increasing responsibility for school nurse to instruct on the body shape and weight control behaviors through health education and consultation. Also, the results suggested that it is important to develop proper diet and exercise methods for adolescents girls to maintain their weight and health.

최근 서구화된 생활습관과 만성퇴행성 질환으로 비만이 증가하고 있다. 1996년 세계보건기구에서는 비만을 치료해야 할 질병으로 규정하였고 체중감량은 비만인의 질병의 치료, 성인병의 예방 차원에서도 바람직하다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 최근 건강에 대한 관심도가 증가하고 다이어트 산업이 성장하면서 매스컴의 영향에 의해 지나치게 마른 것을 선호하는 사회분위기가 조성되어 젊은 여성들이 신체에 자신감을 갖지 못하고 다양한 체중조절을 시도하고 있어 무분별한 다이어트로 인한 건강상의 문제가 지적되고 있다.(중략)

Purpose: This study identified the effects of body weight control behaviors on bone mineral density (BMD) in Korean women aged 20 to 39 years. Methods: A secondary analysis of the 5th Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was conducted. Asian-Pacific criteria of BMI (Body Mass Index) and BMD were calculated for 1,026 women selected. The effects of body weight control behaviors were assessed using binary multiple logistic regression analysis while controlling for BMI. Results: Osteopenia and osteoporosis rates were 32.8% and 2.0%, respectively. About 69% of women performed weight control behaviors, and a combination of diet/exercise (22.7%) and drug added methods (10.9%) for weight control. Women who performed both diet control and exercise had a lower possibility to have abnormal BMD than those who did not try weight control (OR=0.67, CI=0.45~0.98, p=.039). Further weight control behaviors did not influence abnormal BMD. Conclusion: Body weight control should include proper diet and exercise in accordance with each woman's BMI level.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between body image, weight-control self-efficacy, and body mass index of high-school girls. Methods: Body image, gender role identity, weight-control self-efficacy, and body weight control behavior were measured by structured questionnaires. Date were analyzed by descriptive statistics, the t-test, the one-way ANOVA, and Pearson correlation, using the SPSS program. Results: Body weight control behavior was positively correlated with weight-control self-efficacy and objective body mass index. Body weight control behavior showed significant differences according to the interest in weight control, current weight control effort, reasons for weight control, secret method for weight loss, eating breakfast or not, and the amount of time exposed to mass media. In regard to the body weight control behavior according to the gender role identity type, the androgynous showed significantly higher tendency than other types. Conclusion: These findings suggest that health providers need to educate high-school girls about appropriate body image and weight control behavior. Also, more studies are needed to identify factors influencing weight control behavior.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare variables related to weight control between normal weight and overweight/obese female adolescents. Methods: This study is a supplementary analysis using a total of 293 female adolescents in Seoul. Data were collected through self-report questionnaires on the topics of stages of change, processes of change, and the decisional balance pertaining to weight control. Body weight and height were also measured. Results: There was a significant difference in the stages of change between the normal weight and overweight/obese groups. Of 12 processes of change, 9 processes were significantly higher in the overweight/obese group than in the normal weight groups. Also, female adolescents who were overweight or obese had significantly higher pros and eating efficacy scores comparing to those in the normal weight group. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that overweight/obese female adolescents, especially those in the action stage need supports to continue their weight control behaviors. In addition, a weight control program for female adolescents should emphasize their participation in physical activities in addition to their dietary control efforts.

Purpose: This study was carried out in an attempt to find weight control behaviors (BMI, experiences of weight control, weight control related factors, etc.) of college female students. Method: The subjects were 596 female students in 104 universities and colleges in Korea. Data was collected by using a questionnaire developed through a pretest. Result: Seventy five percent of subjects were in the normal range in weight, but 63.8% have experienced weight control behaviors and 58.9% have worried about their weight. Middle and high school was the first time to have concerns about their weight/body image. In addition, the influence towards weight control was mainly by mass communication. Weight control frequency in the most recent most year correlated with concern about weight, first time of weight control, maximum maintaining period of losing weight and BMI. Conclusion: To ensure resonable body image and weight control behaviors in women, education has to begin in elementary schools. In the case of weight control, scientific and systematic weight reduction programs should be developed.

Purpose: This descriptive study was designed to investigate Body Mass Index(BMI), weight control behavior, and self-esteem in high school adolescents. Method: The convenience sample consisted of 129 high school females and 106 high school males. Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire from November to December, 1999. BMI was calculated by using the subject's self-reported body weight and height to identify objective obesity. Self evaluation about subjective obesity was measured by a single item question. Preferred BMI was calculated by using the subject's elf-reported body weight and height which the subjects desired. The Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale was utilized to measure the level of self-esteem. Results: Results of the study revealed that high school females perceived themselves as more more obese than their the actual BMI, excessively participated in dieting behavior and exercises, and reported lower self-esteem than that of males. Conclusion: Based on this study, health care providers need to educate female adolescents about healthy behavior as well as the normal weight range in BMI.

헬스케어 산업은 제4차 산업혁명 기반 기술과 접목된 디지털 헬스케어로 개인의 건강과 의료에 관한 정보 등을 다루는 분야로 건강관리 서비스와 의료 과학기술이 융합된 형태이다. 패러다임 변화에 따른 디지털 헬스케어는 기존 「의료법」상의 의료행위 개념에 포섭되어 논의가 가능한 것인지 의문이 생긴다. 「의료법」상 의료행위의 개념에 관한 명확한 정의 규정은 없지만, 판례를 통해서 그 개념을 정립하고 있다. 그리고 「의료법」상 의료행위의 주체는 의료인으로 한정하고 있다. 그러나 디지털 헬스케어는 의료인에 의 한 디지털 기술을 이용한 질병 진단과 치료행위를 하는 경우가 있다. 이와는 달리 비의료인에 의해서 가능한 것이 디지털 헬스케어이다. 왜냐하면 디지털 헬스케어는 운동, 식습관 그리고 체중조절 등과 같은 건강관리를 포함하는 개념으로 이해되기 때문이다. 이로 인하여 디지털 헬스케어에 대한 「의료법」상 의료행위 개념에 포섭하는 경우 「의료법」 제27조에 규정된 '무면허의료행위'로 형사처벌의 대상이 된다. 보건의료산업은 디지털 전환과 정보통신기술과의 융복합이 빠르게 진행되고 있다. 이로 인하여 기존의 의료행위와 구분하여 '디지털화된 의료행위' 또는 '정보통신기술(ICT) 기반 의료행위'로 새롭게 규정할 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 의료행위 개념은 고정불변한 개념이 아닌 가변성을 가진다. 그렇다고 이러한 요구에 따라 의료행위 개념의 무한 확장이 아닌 그 범위의 재설정을 요청하는 것이다. 따라서 의료서비스체계에 대한 수요자의 요구를 반영하여 의료행위 개념을 법제화하여야 할 것이다.
