Considering the importance of institutional foodservice in modern dietary life and its influence on the environment, sustainable development in institutional foodservice industry carries great significance. The current study was conducted to investigate dietitians' perceptions of sustainable business-and-industry foodservice and their intentions to perform sustainable practices by applying a mixed methodology. For the quantitative study, an online survey was conducted on 362 dietitians who had worked at a contact foodservice company for more than 1 year. The survey was performed from December 15th, 2011 to January 30th, 2012, and 202 responses were used for the analysis. For the qualitative a study, a focus group interview was conducted during May, 2012 with representative employees of the company. According to the results, dietitians seemed to be unfamiliar with the terms "sustainability" or "sustainable development," whereas they understood related contents and practices. Dietitians' awareness and perceived need in terms of sustainable business-and-industry foodservice were not significantly different across general characteristics. Dietitians seemed to be highly aware of the impacts of business-and-industry foodservice on economy, whereas they appeared to lack understanding of its impacts on society and environment. Cost increase and levy on work in daily operations were considered as main obstacles hampering dietitians' intentions to perform sustainable practices. A total of 88.1% of responding dietitians expected that the meal price at a sustainable business-and-industry foodservice should be higher than the supposed standard price of 4,000 won, with an average reaching 5,270 won. Findings from this study could be used as baseline information for vitalizing sustainable business-and-industry foodservice in Korea.

Objectives: This study was to investigate how body-shape perception could influence to weight control practice both in normal and obese group. Methods: We used 2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to analysis 1) weight control practices of population; 2) consistency between body-shape perception and body mass index; 3) comparison weight control practices between normal group and body mass index (BMI) obese group in perceptional obese group; 4) odds ratio of BMI obese group using herbal drugs for weight control practice in perceptional obese group. Results: We found that study population tends to choose exercise, dietary restriction, meal skip, health functional food, one-food, drug, herbal drug, fasting and self-medication in order of frequency to control weight. The agreement between body-shape perception and BMI within obese group was approximately 64% with 0.40 of Cohen's Kappa coefficient, ranging from 0.384 to 0.423. Within perceptional obese group, choosing each weight control practice methods ratios between normal BMI group and obese BMI group were not significantly different. Within perceptional obese group, obese BMI group showed significant odds ratio (2.58, 95% confidence intervals, 1.38~4.85) than normal BMI group in choosing herbal medication for weight loss when adjusting other variables. Conclusions: We concluded that body-shape perception might be an important factor for choosing weight control program, and roles of Korean medical doctors thought to be enhanced for using herbal medication for weight loss.

본 연구는 2014년 9월 8일부터 10월 14일까지 국내 3개월 이상 거주한 만 19세 이상의 대학교에 재학 중인 중국 유학생 276명을 대상으로 고혈압 및 나트륨 관련 영양지식, 고염가공식품 섭취빈도, 고혈압예방 식생활 실천도, 식행동 변화단계를 조사하여 영양지식과 고혈압 예방 실천도와의 관계를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 조사대상자의 고혈압 관련 영양지식 점수는 총 50점 만점 중 평균 40.62점으로 나타났다. '개인의 혈압은 언제, 어디서나 항상 일정하다.'의 정답률이 95.7%로 가장 높은 반면 '고혈압은 유전적 소인이 있는 질병이다.'가 44.6%로 가장 낮았다. 나트륨 관련 영양지식 점수는 총 30점 만점으로 평균 24.00점으로 나타났다. '음식 조리 시 소금을 전혀 넣지 않으면 나의 나트륨 섭취량은 0이다.'와 '나트륨 섭취를 많이 할수록 건강에 좋다.'는 항목의 정답률이 89.5%로 가장 높게 나타났으며. '국, 찌개 등의 국물을 적게 먹는 것은 혈압의 조절에 도움이 된다.'가 56.2%로 가장 낮은 정답률을 보였으나 나트륨 관련 영양지식의 전 항목의 정답률은 50%이상인 것으로 나타났다. 고염가공식품 섭취빈도는 김치류가 6.34점으로 가장 많이 섭취하는 것으로 나타났으며, 고혈압 예방 실천도는 5점 만점 중 총 평균은 3.10점으로 나타났다. 고혈압 예방 실천 항목에서 '담배를 피우지 않는다.'의 평균점수 (4.03점)가 가장 높게 나타났으며 '정기적으로 혈압을 측정하고 의사의 진찰을 받는다.'가 2.47점으로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 고혈압 예방 식행동 변화단계 분포는 고려단계 (47.1%), 행동단계 (32.2%), 고려전단계 (20.7%) 순으로 고려단계가 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 고혈압 예방 식행동 변화단계에 따른 고혈압 관련 영양지식, 나트륨 관련 영양지식과 고혈압 예방 실천도는 고려전단계에서 가장 낮고, 행동단계에서는 가장 높게 나타났다. 식행동 변화단계가 고려전단계에서 행동단계로 갈수록 영양지식과 식생활 실천도의 점수가 상승하는 경향이 있었다. 고혈압 및 나트륨 관련 영양지식과 식생활 실천도의 상관관계를 분석한 결과, 영양지식과 고혈압 예방 실천도가 유의한 정 (+)의 상관관계가 있었고, 고염가공식품 섭취빈도와 유의한 부 (-)의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면 고혈압 및 나트륨 관련 영양지식의 점수가 높을수록 고혈압 예방 실천도의 점수가 높았고, 고염가공 식품섭취빈도가 낮았다. 영양지식 점수가 높을수록 식행동 변화의 단계 중 고려전단계나 고려단계보다는 행동단계의 점수가 유의적으로 높았다. 그러므로 중국 유학생들의 건강 식생활 실천을 위해서는 고혈압과 나트륨 관련 영양지식을 교육하고, 한국음식에 대한 이해를 높임과 동시에 건강 식생활 실천을 효과적으로 할 수 있는 교육프로그램을 개발하여 고염가공식품의 섭취빈도를 낮추고, 주기적인 식생활 평가를 통한 유학생 지원 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.

A valid food or dish frequency questionnaire needs to be developed in Korea for accurate dietary assessment because the dietary practices of Koreans are very different from those of other countries. This study was conducted to evaluate the accuracy of the newly developed, semi-quantitative, dish-based frequency questionnaire (Semi-DFQ) with 12-day dietary records (12-DRs) as a gold standard. The study subjects were 115 men and 173 women aged 30-65 years old. We calibrated the frequency, portion size and daily intake of 112 dish items reported in Semi-DFQ with those in 12-DRs by Spearman rank correlation coefficients (SCCs). The consumption frequency and portion size reported in Semi-DFQ were higher than those in 12-DRs. The SCCs for the consumption frequency of various dishes ranged from -0.07 (fried seaweed) to 0.70 (instant coffee), the portion size ranged from -0.09 (cold seaweed soup) to 0.68 (soju), and the daily intake ranged from -0.07 (fried seaweed) to 0.71 (soju). The SCCs were higher for dishes consumed daily, such as steamed rice,milk, coffee and alcohol, than those of foods eaten rarely. The overall agreements between the Semi-DFQ and 12-DRs were low for categories of consumption frequency and portion size, even though some dishes showed high SCCs. The SCCs of the two methods in consumption frequency and amount were higher among the women and younger subject. The results revealed the limitation of the Semi-DFQ for evaluating the status of usual individual intake. Therefore, the Semi-DFQ can be used in addition as dietary records and 24-hour recall depending on the research aims.

The purpose of this study was to investigate dietary behaviors and nutritional knowledge among immigrant women in multicultural families. In addition, this study reveals a necessity for nutrition education, which is apparent to both immigrant women living in multicultural families as well as nutrition education experts. The survey was conducted with 30 immigrant women within multicultural families in Seoul. The dietary behaviors of the women were significantly different by their period of residence. The longer they had resided in Korea, the higher their dietary behavior score. However, there was no significant difference in nutrition knowledge by their period of residence. This study also conducted in-depth personal interviews with 8 immigrant women who lived in Seoul, and with 4 nutrition education experts. These interviews were performed to provide profound insights regarding the content and means of nutrition education for immigrant women. Nutrition education for immigrant women living in multicultural families should proceed at a basic level in terms of language and content, using bilingual (Korean and their native language) education materials. Education topics and content need to be developed differently according to the level of Korean comprehension and period of residence in Korea. Also, this multicultural approach should be adapted when planning nutrition education since immigrant women have various acculturation levels, and the content and means of education should be adjusted to these acculturation levels. Management after nutrition education is necessary for immigrant women who do not have sufficient understanding of the Korean language. Practical educational methods such as real cooking practices and food purchasing simulations must be developed. Finally, the results suggest that the government needs to establish a systematic plan for nutrition education among immigrant women living in multicultural families. Policy support such as training nutrition educators on multicultural individuals residing in Korea is necessary for active and effective nutritional education.

This is a study to analyze rural area women's perception and practice of prenatal care, which is the fundamental of the education of children. Further, it was aimed to provide basic data for ideal childbirth, upbringing and household management process. For that object, questionnaires were distributed to women living in Yongdong region to judge the level of general understanding on prenatal care. Research was done from three different aspects; dietary life, emotion control and health management. Percentages were drawn out to see the general tendency. The following results were discovered from data analysis: 1. Most subjects of the survey knew well about prenatal care. They had acquired that knowledge from their parents. Most thought that prenatal care is necessary. They answered that they think prenatal care has more or less effect on the fetus. The first dime they thought about prenatal care was after they found that they were pregnant. 2. The subjects knew well about dietary needs for pregnant women carried out much of what they knew. Intake of sufficiently nutritious food is somewhat difficult, but foods that are regarded as bad were avoided thoroughly. It appears that most women have much concern about what they eat during pregnancy. 3. Most of the subjects understood that the emotional stability is necessary but it wasn't put into practice so well as in dietary life. Especially, attitudes connected with emotional development like, "Look or hear only what is good (for the fetus)" were practised little. Efforts for self-restraint as "Not to hate or pick out others' defects or talk bad about others" were appeared to be great, and it is practised well, too. 4. The subjects were well-informed on health area, but practised little. Behaviors for health improvement as to "Lead a regular daily life for health" or "Not to take a long trop" were practised very faithfully. The results of the survey showed that passive attitudes related to tabooed food, self-abstinence and cautions for bodily safety were prevalent; more positive and progressive disposition missing. That is, full perception and active practices for caloric intake, emotional improvement and physical strength development are needed.
