This study examines the image management behavior according to self-monitoring, self-objectification of profile-based SNS users. Questionnaires were administered to 313 SNS users including both men and women in their 20s to 30s. The SPSS 25.0 package was utilized for data analysis, which included frequency analysis, factor analysis, Cronbach's ?, t-test, and regression analysis. The study analyzed self-monitoring in 2 groups (high, low), self-objectification for 2 factors (body surveillance, body shame), and image management behavior for 5 factors (fashion oriented, instrumentality, conformity, ostentation, interpersonal disposition). The results revealed: first, self-monitoring groups exhibited significant differences in self-objectification. The higher self-monitoring group was more influenced by body surveillance and body shame compared to the low self-monitoring group. Second, self-objectification had a positive influence on all the factors of image management behavior. Especially, body surveillance demonstrated a high influence on instrumentality and body shame showed a high influence on ostentation. Third, the self-monitoring groups showed significant differences in all the factors of image management behavior. The higher self-monitoring group demonstrated more influence of image management behavior compared to the low self-monitoring group. These results provide useful information in understanding the influence of social media on users' psychological attitude and consciousness toward their body and image management behavior.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of health education based on life skill training (LST) on middle school students' health knowledge, attitude, and behavior. Methods: For this study, 961 middle school students, residing in Seoul, Korea, were selected. The students received health education one day a week for 7 weeks from September 1, 2014 to October 25, 2014. Before and after the whole education program, the students filled out questionnaires surveying on their health knowledge, attitude, and behavior. Excluding inappropriate data, the data of 843 students was analyzed through Paired t-test. Results: After the education program based on LST, there were statistically significant increases in the scores for knowledge about drinking, body image distortion, good eating habits, right usage of smartphone, and prevention of smartphone addiction (p<.05). There were also statistically significant increases in the scores for attitude toward smoking, drug, good eating habits and prevention of smartphone addiction (p<.05). There were statistically significant increases in the scores for behavior regarding drug, good eating habits, right usage of smartphone and prevention of smartphone addiction (p<.05). Conclusion: Health education based on life skill training was especially effective in improving the subjects' scores for health knowledge, attitude, and health behavior. Therefore, various and systemic LST educational programs should be developed and implemented and their effects should be evaluated in further studies.

The present study was conducted to develop a Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale for Malaysian female adolescents. Data were collected among 328 female adolescents from a secondary school in Kuantan district, state of Pahang, Malaysia by using a self-administered questionnaire and anthropometric measurements. The self-administered questionnaire comprised multiple measures of body image, Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26; Gamer & Garfinkel, 1979) and Rosenberg Self-esteem Inventory (Rosenberg, 1965). The 152 items from selected multiple measures of body image were examined through factor analysis and for internal consistency. Correlations between Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale and body mass index (BMI), risk of eating disorders and self-esteem were assessed for construct validity. A seven factor model of a 62-item Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale for Malaysian female adolescents with construct validity and good internal consistency was developed. The scale encompasses 1) preoccupation with thinness and dieting behavior, 2) appearance and body satisfaction, 3) body importance, 4) muscle increasing behavior, 5) extreme dieting behavior, 6) appearance importance, and 7) perception of size and shape dimensions. Besides, a multidimensional body image composite score was proposed to screen negative body image risk in female adolescents. The result found body image was correlated with BMI, risk of eating disorders and self-esteem in female adolescents. In short, the present study supports a multi-dimensional concept for body image and provides a new insight into its multi-dimensionality in Malaysian female adolescents with preliminary validity and reliability of the scale. The Multi-dimensional Body Image Scale can be used to identify female adolescents who are potentially at risk of developing body image disturbance through future intervention programs.

This study examines the effects of mass media, the tendency for young women to make body comparisons, and the BMI of female high school and college students on their attitudes about eating. Participants were 392 high school students from Gyeonggi Province and 391 college students from Seoul, Gyeonggi and Chung-nam Province. Collected data were analyzed through Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, t-test, One-way ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test, Pearson's correlation, and stepwise multiple regression. The findings of the study were as follows: 1) While mass media influence differed by grade, tendency for appearance comparison and attitude toward eating did not differ by grade. 2) Mass media influence, tendency for appearance comparison and attitude toward eating differed by BMI. 3) Mass media pressure, specific attributes comparison, and BMI were significant predictors of attitudes toward eating. 4) Tendency for appearance comparison played a mediating role in the relationship between mass media and attitudes toward eating.

In the relationship between post-modern feminism and the body. the body of women, which has been taken as 'other' by dominant arguments, has escaped from the fixed idea at post-modern times and the post-modern feminists tried to escape from the taste of the times about body image that was prevalent in the former times.'The taste of the times' here means the fixed physical form of ideal women's body by the educational custom, and it includes the educational prescription which establishes the docile body of women. This kind of educational custom aims at the perfect and permanent restriction on size, shape, desire, attitude and movement as well as on the overall demeanor and each part of the body. And the custom produces 'dependent and trained'. that is, inferiorized women's body. Hence, this paper points out that the feminity as a fixed Physical form should be overcome in order to move forward, and as one part of the effort, it attempts to analyze the designs which deformed and distorted women's body in 1990s. This research indicates that the work, which tries to deviate the fantasized and casted women's mystery, has been closely connected with the expression of 'non-separate bodies' and 'irregular body shapes' in 1990s, which aims at escaping from the fixation of women's body Image. Therefore, it is concluded that the target design trend of this research, which expressed the deformation and perversion of the body, provides the anti-these against the ideal body image of women and the these of feminity. which have been reproduced in various methods and patterns throughout the public and the culture on the whole by expressing the refusal and deviation of the existing women's body image through the post-fixation of the body pattern.

연구는 간호학생 273명을 대상으로 체질량지수와 체형인식도, 체형만족여부에 따른 체중조절행위 및 식행동을 파악하여 바람직한 체중조절 프로그램 개발에 사용하고자 시도된 서술적 조사 연구이다. 자료수집 기간은 2012년 3월 5일부터-3월 12일 까지였다. 자료수집 방법은 조사대상자가 직접 기입하도록 하였고, 자료분석 방법은 SPSS 프로그램을 사용하여 빈도분석 및 Chi-square test로 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면, 대상자의 체질량지수는 정상 또는 그 이하의 체중군이 88.3%였는데, 체형만족여부에서는 '불만족한다'가 77.7%였고 실제보다 자신을 살찐 편으로 생각하고 있으며, 자신의 신체에 불만족하고 있었다. 체중조절행위 유무에서는 '있다'가 84.2% 였는데, 자신의 체형이 적절하다고 인식하고 있는 대상자에서도 80%, 자신의 체형에 만족하는 대상자에서도 56%가 체중 조절행위를 시도한 경험이 있었다. 체중조절방법 선택에서는 '운동'이 48.7%로 가장 높았고, 그 다음이 '운동과 다른 방법 병용'이 31.9%였다. 하루 한 끼 이상 결식하는 비율 조사 결과에서는 저체중군의 아침 결식률이 83%로 아주 높게 나타났다. 이결과를 토대로 간호학생이 자신의 체형인식을 바르게 할 수 있도록 지도되어야 하고, 체중조절을 무리하게 시행하여 건강에 해를 입지 않도록 바람직한 운동 및 체중조절방법 등을 전문가에게 처방을 받아 시행 할 수 있도록 해야 한다.
