본 연구는 전북지역 345명의 초등학교 교사들을 대상으로 교사들의 나트륨 영양지식, 나트륨 식행동, 저염식 태도수준을 파악하고 교사들의 식생활지도 수행과의 관계를 조사하고자 하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 조사대상자의 나트륨에 대한 지식에 대한 총점은 16점 중 12.92점이며 '소금을 적게 섭취하면 고혈압, 심혈관 질환, 위암, 골다공증 등의 질병을 예방할 수 있다'가 가장 높은 정답률을 보였고, '신선한 야채와 과일을 많이 먹으면 다량의 칼륨이 나트륨을 몸 밖으로 배출시켜 준다'가 가장 낮은 정답률을 보였다. 조사대상자의 나트륨관련 식행동에 대한 총점은 70점 중 46.85점이며 '젓갈이나 장아찌가 식탁에 없으면 섭섭하다'가 가장 높았고, '라면, 국수 등을 먹을 때 김치를 꼭 먹는다'가 가장 낮은 점수를 보였다. 조사대상자의 저염식 태도에 대한 총점은 50점 중 33.63점이며 '염분에 대한 정보가 주어진다면 저염 식품을 선택하겠다'가 가장 높았고, '가공식품이나 스낵 속의 나트륨 함량을 확인한다'가 가장 낮은 점수를 보였다. 조사대상자의 식생활지도 수행에 대한 총점은 80점 중 59.95점이며 '학생들과 함께 급식을 한다'가 가장 잘 이루어지나 '식품영양표시를 이용하여 저나트륨 식품을 선택하도록 지도한다'와 '급식 시 학생들이 잘 접하지 않은 음식이 나오면 그 음식의 유래나 영양가 등을 학생들에게 설명해 준다'가 잘 이루어지지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 조사대상자의 일반적인 특성에 따른 나트륨에 대한 지식은 고혈압약 복용, 스트레스 정도에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 나트륨 관련 식행동은 성별, 근무경력, BMI, 흡연, 음주, 건강에 대한 관심, 스트레스 정도에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 저염식 태도는 성별, 결혼 유무, 근무경력, 음주, 운동, 건강에 대한 관심, 스트레스 정도에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 식생활지도 수행은 결혼유무, 연령, 근무경력, 음주, 건강검진, 건강에 대한 관심, 스트레스 정도에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 나트륨에 대한 지식, 나트륨 섭취 식행동, 저염식 태도 및 식생활 지도 수행간의 관계는 나트륨에 대한 지식은 나트륨 섭취 식행동 (r = 0.252, p < 0.01)간에 낮은 상관관계를 보였다. 나트륨 섭취 식행동은 저염식 태도 (r = 0.319, p < 0.01)간에 낮은 상관관계를 나타냈고, 저염식 태도와 식생활 지도 수행 (r = 0.435, p < 0.01)간에는 순 상관관계를 보였다. 이상의 결과, 전북지역 초등교사의 나트륨에 대한 지식수준과 식생활지도 수행정도는 보통수준이나 나트륨 섭취 식행동과 저염식태도는 낮은 수준으로 나타났다. 교사들의 교육경력에 따라서 나트륨관련 지식수준의 차이는 없었으나 장기근무 교사일수록 또한 본인의 건강에 대한 관심이 높을수록 나트륨 섭취 식행동, 저염식 태도 및 식생활지도 수행점수가 높았다. 그러나 고혈압약을 복용하고 있음에도 불구하고 나트륨관련 지식이 낮은 것을 볼 때 교사대상의 나트륨관련 질병 등에 대한 영양교육의 필요성이 매우 높겠다. 본 연구결과 교사들의 나트륨관련 지식과 나트륨관련 식행동 간에 낮으나 어느 정도의 상관관계가 있으므로 근무기간이 짧은 교사의 경우는 직무연수 등을 통하여 나트륨에 대한 정보를 정확하게 전달하여 교사들 스스로 올바른 식생활관리가 가능하도록 할뿐만 아니라 장기적으로 학생들의 식생활지도가 잘 이루어지도록 하여야 하겠다. 따라서 초등교사의 식생활지도 수행에 좀 더 긍정적인 영향을 미칠 수 있도록 나트륨에 대한 지식 및 저염식 태도 등 식생활에서 실천 가능한 교육 프로그램 및 교육매체 개발 등을 위한 영양교사와의 협조체계가 필요하며 이를 위한 교육청 및 학교행정부서의 적극적인 지원이 필요하겠다.

The purpose of this study was to compare eating habits and food attitudes between depressed and normal adults. The subjects were selected (n = 6217) from those who participated in the 2008 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES IV). The subjects were divided into the depressed (DG, n = 841) and normal groups (NG, n = 3969). DG was those who have depression now or who have experienced depressing feelings more than two weeks or per year. The general characteristics, anthropometric measurement, eating habits, the dietary guideline recognition and practices were compared by using chi-square test and t-test. Also the partial correlations were analyzed by SAS (Statistical analysis system, version 9.1) program. There was a significantly higher rate of DG among the female (74.32%), with low education (44.6%) and low-income (32.0%) subjects (p < 0.001). DG showed significantly lower snacking and dining out. There was significantly higher rate of DG who responded "none" in frequency of snack (27.10%) and dining out (29.50%) (p < 0.001). Also DG showed significantly lower rate of the subjects who ate with the family than NG. Also, DG showed significantly lower dietary guideline recognition level and practice than NG. Correlation between depression symptom and various factors showed that positive correlation with low snack intake and dining out frequencies. However, correlation was relatively weak. In conclusion, eating habits and recognition levels and practice of dietary guidelines of DG were significantly different from NG. DG showed significantly lower frequencies of snack, dining out, and eating with family.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The present study investigated Korean and Taiwan adults on the importance of and the satisfaction with street food sanitation and street food choice factor, in order to present management and improvement measures for street foods. SUBJECTS/METHODS: The present study conducted a survey on 400 randomly chosen adults (200 Korean, 200 Taiwanese). General characteristics, eating habits, street food intake frequency, and preference by type of street food of respondents were checked. Respondents' importance and satisfaction of street food hygiene and selection attributes were also measured. In order to test for the difference between groups, ${\chi}^2-test$ and t-test were performed. ISA was also performed to analyze importance and satisfaction. RESULTS: Results showed that the importance of sanitation was significantly higher than satisfaction on all items in both Korea and Taiwan, and the satisfaction with sanitation was higher in Taiwan than in Korea. According to ISA results with street food sanitation, satisfaction was low while importance was high in both Korea and Taiwan. In terms of street food choice factor, importance scores were significantly higher than satisfaction scores on all items. In addition, satisfaction scores on all items except 'taste' were significantly higher in Taiwan than in Korea. CONCLUSIONS: A manual on sanitation management of street foods should be developed to change the knowledge and attitude toward sanitation by putting into practice a regularly conducted education. Considering the popularity of street foods and its potential as a tourism resource to easily publicize our food culture, thorough management measures should be prepared on sanitation so that safe street food culture should be created.

Korean style DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) and a dietary education program for sodium reduction were developed. Reduced sodium diets (15 and 30% reductions) were developed from general diets for 3 consecutive weeks from Monday through Saturday. Subjects (19 total) were classified into two groups according to dietary education. Experimental period was from June 24 to July 23, 2012. Total sum of adaptation scores for low sodium diets significantly increased in the group that underwent dietary education compared to that without (p<0.05). After the experiment, both groups showed significantly increased values in terms of food group balance, sodium-related nutrition knowledge, attitude, and practice by paired t-test. Especially, group that underwent dietary education showed significantly higher values for attitudes by ANCOVA pre-test as a variation (p<0.01). For the results of the nutrient intake survey, group that underwent dietary education showed significantly increased values for dietary fiber (p<0.01), vitamin A (p<0.001), vitamin K (p<0.001), vitamin C (p<0.01), Folic acid (p<0.001), vitamin B12 (p<0.01), calcium (p<0.01), iron (p<0.05), and zinc (p<0.05) and significantly decreased values for sodium (p<0.05) and chloride (p<0.005). Subjects adapted to reduced sodium diets showed apparent improvements in sodium-related knowledge, attitude, practice and intake of nutrient, and these improvements were even higher in the group that underwent dietary education compared to that without. Thus, adaptation to low sodium diet combined with dietary education can improve dietary habits.

This study investigated the relationships between eating disorder risk, body image perception, weight control, and dietary habits in Korean women. Body shape perception, the Eating Attitude Test (EAT-26) and dietary habit information were collected by a self-administered questionnaire to 373 adult women and the data were analyzed by the Chi-square test. 31.4% of the women were classified in the eating disorder group by a score of over 20 points on the EAT-26. Compared to the normal group, more women in the eating disorder risk group perceived that a thin body shape was the ideal body shape and were dissatisfied with their body shape. This group was also more interested in weight control and more likely to try weight control methods. The eating disorder risk group was more likely to skip meals and snacks than the normal group. In addition, they had a greater appetite and a higher frequency of overeating than the normal group. Over 30% of the Korean women surveyed were categorized at high risk of eating disorders. They were more likely to overestimate body weight and shape and tried to control their weight by inappropriate methods. To prevent eating disorders in adult women, nutrition education programs should incorporate strategies to change inaccurate self-body image and to disseminate information about healthy weight control methods.
