This study examined the cultural dietary habits as well as attitudes toward food, within other life pattern elements, of students living in Gwangju City and Chonnam Province, Korea. Questionnaires from 1,000 student respondents were analyzed. The survey consisted of questions regarding physical condition and health status, dietary consciousness, food preference, knowledge of food and nutrition, and dietary culture. The results showed that 1.6% of the students considered their own physical condition to be extremely poor, and 2.7% and 2.1% also considered their father's and mother's physical conditions as extremely poor, respectively. Among the respondents, 18.3% were smokers and consumed an average of 14.8 cigarettes per day. With regard to their dietary habits, the students answered that they preferred to eat meals with friends rather than with family members, fruit was chosen for eating over health food supplements, and there was very little participation or interest in various food and cultural festivals. The female students had a tendency to alleviate mental stresses by eating, while the male students performed more physical activity to deal with stress. The female students also preferred cereal, fruit, fast food, and sweetened foods more than the male students. Between the smokers and non-smokers, significantly more non-smokers chose fruit (p<0.01), ethnic foods (p<0.05), and sweetened foods (p<0.05) as compared to the smokers. Body mass index (BMI) had significant positive correlations with soft drink (p<0.01), health food supplement (p<0.01), and alcoholic beverage (p<0.001) consumption, while BMI was negatively correlated with cereal (p<0.01), fruit (p<0.001), and sweetened food (p<0.01) intake. The health status of students was positively correlated with their father's health status (p<0.01), mother's health status (p<0.001), and BMI (p<0.05), as well as cereal (p<0.001), high protein side dish (p<0.01), fruit (p<0.01), vegetable (p<0.01), and traditional food (p<0.001) intake. The average body weight for female students was approximately 5 kg less than the Korean Nutrition Society's standardized weight, therefore, it is strongly recommended that measures be taken to develop a systematic nutrition education program that would help those students who often unintentionally skip breakfast or go on extreme diets to improve body image.

This study was carried to investigate the effects of alcohol intake on the dietary behaviors and nutrient intakes of students in university and was observed characteristics of alcohol drinking, smoking, dietary behaviors, and nutrient intakes of students. The mean of alcohol consumption was 25.7$\pm$21.7g/day and 47.5$\pm$25.8g/day, most high of high alcohol group in the male student than other groups. Smoking were high by increasing of alcohol intake. Most students had dietary problems as skipping meals, eating snack after dinner, high frequency of eating fast and instant food, and eating meals at watching TV or video. The dietary behavior problems in the high alcohol groups showed higher in the female students than the male students. Nutritional knowledge scores was no significantly different by sex and alcohol intake. The intakes of calorie, protein, phosphorous, iron, and niacin in the male students was significantly higher than those of female students. Except for calcium, vitamin $B_2$ and vitamin C, nutrients were satisfied to the level of Recommended Dietary Allowances(RDA). Nutrient intakes was not affected by alcohol intake. But intakes of calorie, protein, phosphorous, and iron were affected by sex and vitamin C intake was affected by sex and alcohol intake.

본 연구에서는 서울 일부 지역 주부 140명을 대상으로 사회 인지론을 적용하여 개발된 나트륨 섭취 감소를 위한 영양교육 프로그램을 수행하고, 프로그램의 효과를 평가하기 위하여 나트륨 섭취 관련 지식 및 인식, 환경 인식, 식행동을 조사하여 교육 전후의 변화를 파악하였다. 나트륨 섭취 관련 지식 및 인식 항목에서는 하루 필요 소금 섭취량에 대해 인지하는 비율이 교육 후 77.8%로 교육 전보다 54.6%가 증가하였다. 교육 후 싱거운 쪽의 음식의 간을 선호하는 것으로 인식 변화한 대상자는 25.6%였다. 대부분 대상자들은 식생활에서 저염 섭취에 대한 필요성을 느끼고 있었고, 싱겁게 조리된 음식을 제공할 시 선택하겠다고 응답한 대상자의 비율이 높아 저염 섭취를 위한 환경적 요인이 향상된다면 저염섭취에 대한 자아효능감에 해당하는 개인적 수준의 영역이 높아질 수 있음이 확인되었다. 나트륨 섭취 관련 환경 항목에서는 대상자의 약 2/3가 교육 전 저염식을 먹을 수 있는 곳을 찾아본 경험이 없다고 응답하였으나, 교육 후 찾아본 경험이 있는 것으로 변화된 대상자는 23.6%로 증가하였다. 교육 후 서울 시내에서 저염 음식점의 필요성을 느낀다고 응답한 대상자는 70.0% 이상이었으나, 저염식을 섭취 시 주변에서 먹을 수 있는 곳을 찾는 것은 대체로 어려운 것으로 나타났다(93.5%). 나트륨 섭취 관련 식행동 항목에서 교육 전후로 효과가 있었던 항목은 식품의 영양표시를 확인하고 나트륨이 적은 식품을 선택, 저염 제품 등 나트륨이 적은 식품을 구매, 조리 시 소금의 사용량을 줄이고 마늘, 생강, 고춧가루 등 천연재료를 사용, 패스트푸드(햄버거, 피자 등) 및 가공식품의 섭취 감소 항목으로 직접적인 저염 실천 행동에서의 개선 효과가 유의적으로 나타났다. 그러나 환경 요인과 관련된 식행동인 짜지 않게 조리 요청 여부와 저염 제품 및 건강음식점 소개 여부 항목에서는 행동 변화율이 낮았다. 향후 본 연구에서 수행된 저염 섭취를 위한 영양교육 프로그램을 보완하기 위하여 저염 섭취를 위한 물리적 환경 개선과 병행하여 환경 인식에 대한 평가를 실시하고 대상자가 지속해서 저염 섭취를 위한 행동 변화들이 유지될 수 있는 영양교육 내용이 보완되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was done for finding out if eating habits, eating behaviors were different between non-obese and obese elementary school students in Jeonju Area. Total 2568 students of 1364 male and 1204 female of the 4th, 5th, and 6th year in 5 elementary schools were surveyed and the statistics of the result was analyzed by SPSS program. The results are summarized as follows: 1. Obesity was defined as Body Mass Index(BMI) that exceeded 85th and Obesity Index(OI) that exceeded 110. First, subjects were divided into 4 groups : lean, normal, overweight and obese. Second subjects were reclassified into non-obese(lean and normal) and obese(overweight and obese) groups. Average height of male and female students were 142.5cm, 143.1cm and weight of those were 36.4kg and 37.9kg respectively. 2. As results of obesity computation, obese male students were 19.6%(overweight 11.3%, obese 8.3%) in BMI and obese male students were 25.0%(overweight 12.5.%, obese 12.5%) in OI. Especially Obesity percent rate of male student were significantly higher on that of female student in OI method. 3. Examining obesity between male and female, there were statistically different between male students and female students in OI, but there were not statistically different in BMI. With regard to grade level(4th, 5th, 6th), there were statistically different among grade levels. 4. Examining correlation between eating habits(eating behaviors) and obesity, there were statistically significant in some cases. For example, there were statistically significant correlation between fast eating habit and obesity. And the relation analysis of general environments and obesity showed that there were statistically significant in some cases. These results suggest that the number of overweight students can be increased due to the amount and kinds of food children have as well as the general causes of overweight such as genetic, environmental and psychological reason. Surveying about children's eating habits, eating behaviors this study methodically. Working with parents is necessary and comparison of eating habits, eating behaviors and nutrition knowledge between the past and their presents are also needed in a future.
