Questionnaires were administered to one hundred fifty seven middle school girls in Seoul area. The subjects were categorized into the five groups according to their body mass index (BMI); 1) severely under-weight (BMI < 16.5 $kg/m^2$), 2) under-weight (16.5 $\leq$ BMI < 18.5 $kg/m^2$), 3) normal weight (18.5 $\leq$ BM I < 23.0 $kg/m^2$), 4) overweight (23.0 $\leq$ BMI < 25.0 $kg/m^2$), and 5) obese (BMI $\geq$ 25 $kg/m^2$). 7.0%, 14.6%, 58.9%, 10.2%, and 10.2% of the subjects were classified as severely under-weight, under-weight, normal weight, overweight and obese groups, respectively. Regardless of the BMI, the subjects had disturbed body image, body stress, and poor eating attitude. The actual BMIs of the normal weight, overweight and obese subjects were significantly different from their desired BMI and perceived BMI, representing these subjects dissatisfied their body shape. Almost all subjects tried to lose their body weight even in the severely under-weight and under-weight groups. There were significant correlations of BMI with body image disturbance (p < 0.05), body stress (p < 0.01) and eating attitude (p < 0.05). These results indicated that middle school girls who have higher BMI seemed to have more body image distortion, body stress and risk of eating disorder. However, any significant difference in dietary quality among the five groups was not observed even though their dietary patterns were not balanced. As a conclusion, it is required that middle school girls should correct their distorted body image and body stress.

본 연구에서는 남, 여 중학생의 체형인식에 딱른 외모관리 행동의 실태를 파악하고 비교 분석하여 청소년의 긍정적인 신체이미지 형성의 바람직한 방향을 제시하고자 하였다 조사 대상자는 광주소재 남 여 공학 중학교 7곳의 2. 3학년에 재학중인 435명의 남, 여중학생이었다. 결과분석은 SPSS Package 12.0(Kr)을 활용하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같았다. 먼저, 남, 여중학생들은 실제체형보다 비만하게 인식하는 것뿐만 아니라 실제체형보다 수척하게 인식하는 경향도 컸다. 자신의 체형을 제대로 인식할 수 있는 교육이 필요하다고 본다. 둘째, 신체인식 요인과 외모관리행동의 상관관계를 살펴보면 남, 여 중학생 모두 비만인식에 대해 운동보다는 다이어트로 외모관리를 하는 경향을 보이는데 이것에 대한 적절한 지도가 필요하다고 생각된다. 셋째, 자신의 실제체형보다 수척하게 인식하는 수척왜곡 인식집단과 정상집단의 외모관리행동을 살펴보면 남중학생은 운동관리만 하고 여중학생은 운동관리만 하지 알았다. 서로 차별화된 교육이 필요하다고 생각된다. 넷째 비만왜곡인식집단은 남 여중학생 모두 다이어트관리를 하는 반면 신체보정관리나 운동관리를 하지 않는 경향을 보였다. 실제적으로 운동관리가 가장 필요하다고 인식해야할 집단이 다이어트에만 의존하는 경향은 시정이 꼭 필요하다고 생각된다. 이상과 같이 우리나라 남 여 중학생의 왜곡된 신체인식과 외모관리행동을 바로 잡기 위해서 정규 교과목인 가정과목을 통해 표준체형에 대한 교육이 이루어져야 할 것이며 자신의 실제체형을 올바르게 인식할 수 있도록 하는 지도가 병행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.
