Adolescence is the most important period of healthy development. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the food recognition, snack preference, and dietary behavior of 1st grade of middle and high school boys and girls. Subjects were 5,554 students from 16 schools with healthy tuck shop and 3,406 students from 9 schools without healthy tuck shop in Seoul, Korea. Students from schools with healthy tuck shop are significantly higher than control group for facility satisfaction and hygiene satisfaction (all p<0.05). For fruit, the preference (p<0.05) and recognition (attitude, p<0.001: intention, p<0.05: eating habit, p<0.001: social-environment, p<0.001: self-efficacy, p<0.001) of students in schools with healthy tuck shop are significantly higher than those in schools without healthy tuck shop. For the habit of checking the manufacturer, students in schools with healthy tuck shop were significantly higher than students in schools without healthy tuck shop (p<0.05).

This study examined the food purchasing behavior of rural housewives in Bibong-myeon, Hwaseong. The survey targeted grocery shopping for the home, in particular by housewives. The type of grocery store frequented, age, socioeconomic factors, and ease of purchase were compared with interests in health foods. One super supermarket (SSM), three supermarkets (SM), and four convenience stores were examined in the research area, whereas a large-scale discount store and grocery stores were also examined outside the research area. The grocery store visiting rate was 61.5% in the research area and 38.5% in the other area. The SSM (62.7%) and SM (29.9%) in the research area and LDS (57.1%) and SSM (16.7%) in the other area were most frequently visited. Major purchasing products greatly differed according to the grocery store type. Major foods purchased in the SSM were grain, meat, and fish. Major foods purchased in the LDS and SM were processed products and vegetables, respectively. The LDS visiting frequency was 41.7% for 2-3 times per month and 41.7% for <1 time per month. The means of transport were mostly by private car (87.5%), whereas the SSM was visited 1-2 times per week 53.1% of the time by foot. In addition, various grocery stores are absent in rural areas and it is therefore important to find other methods to assess the food environment of rural areas. In future research, it will be necessary to design various ways to perform food environment research.

본 연구에서는 자주적인 소비 주체인 청소년을 대상으로 가공식품 섭취실태와 구매행동대한 인식을 분석함으로써 청소년을 위한 식생활 교육프로그램 개발 연구의 기초자료를 제공하고 학교현장의 가정과 교사들이 효과적인 식생활 교육을 할 수 있도록 조력하는 것에 그 목적을 두었다. 가공식품 선택 시 고려사항으로 맛이 있는 것과 가격이 싼 것 순이었으며, 표시정보 확인 시 중요하게 보는 것은 유통기간과 가격 순으로 높게 나타났다. 가공식품 구입 시 식품첨가물 표시정보는 56%가 확인하지 않으며, 절반 이상의 학생들이 식품첨가물이 적게 든 것을 구입하려는 노력은 하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 조사대상자의 일반적인 특성에 따른 차이를 분석한 결과, 학교에서 배운 영양지식 활용정도는 여학생일수록, 학년이 낮을수록, 가공식품 구입비용(1일)이 낮을수록 학교에서 배운 영양지식을 더 잘 활용하는 것으로 나타났다. 청소년들은 합리적인 가공식품 구매행동이 아닌 단순하고 본능적인 구매행동을 하고 있어 가공식품 섭취와 관련된 청소년 식행동에 대해 기초적인 영양 교육부터 선행되어야 할 필요가 있다. 또한 실생활에서 활용 가능한 가공식품 관련 영양교육이 더욱 체계적이고 효율적으로 진행되어야 하겠다.
