  • Objectives: This study examined the association of the sleep quality and patterns with the dietary behavior, including snack and beverage consumption, taste preferences, as well as lifestyle of university students. Methods: The subjects were 406 university students in Cheongju, Korea, and the data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire. They were divided into two groups according to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI): good-quality sleepers (PSQI score ≤ 5) and poor-quality sleepers (PSQI score > 5). The data were analyzed using a χ2-test, independent t-test, and analysis of covariance using the SPSS 25.0 program. Results: Fifty-two percent of university students were categorized as poor-quality sleepers by the PSQI. Students classified as poor-quality sleepers had delayed bedtimes, and a shorter duration in bed and total sleep hours than the good-quality sleepers did. Poor-quality sleepers were more prevalent among those who were female, having irregular mealtimes, or frequent late night meals. They also consumed fast food frequently, such as fried chicken and hamburgers, and noodles when adjusted for gender. In addition, drinks with caffeine over milk were dominant among poor-quality sleepers. Furthermore, the preferences for spicy and salty tastes and longer smartphone usage were more prevalent in those with poor-sleep quality. Conclusions: These results showed that more than 50% of university students reported disturbed sleep and poor quality sleep was associated with less desirable snack consumption and taste preference, more smartphone usage, and others. Therefore, nutrition education program along with lifestyle changes promoting sufficient sleep are encouraged to provide for university students, particularly those who have poor sleep quality.

  • 본 연구에서는 초등학교 아동과 어머니를 대상으로 학교급식이 아동의 식행동에 미치는 영향을 조사ㆍ비교하여 초등학교에서의 바람직한 급식지도와 학교급식의 균형적인 목적 달성을 위한 식생활교육 방향 설정에 도움이 되는 기초 자료를 제시하고자 초등학교 6학년생 425명 (남자 215명, 여자 210명)과 어머니 412명을 대상으로 설문 조사를 실시하였다. 조사결과, 학교급식은 초등학생들에게 식사에 대해 바른 이해를 도모하며 편식교정에 효과적이고 간식 섭취에 긍정적인 효과를 보였다. 또한 학교급식을 통하여 초등학생들은 바람직한 식생활태도와 식사예절을 지니게 되었으며 아동의 식생활 위생 관리에도 효과적이었다. 그러나 간식 섭취 (간식의 시기, 간식으로 적합한 식품의 선택과 적절한 양), 아침 식사 반드시 하기, 식사중 책이나 텔레비전 시청하지 않기, 어른이 드신 후 식사하기 등 가정에서의 식사와 관련이 큰 항목들에 있어서는 ‘급식 후에도 여전히 그렇지 않다’는 의견이 다른 항목에서보다 많아 이에 대한 보다 세심한 지도가 필요하며 특히 바람직한 식습관 형성과 올바른 식사 방법 지도에서 학교급식이 효과를 거두기 위해서는 가정과 연계한 지속적인 지도가 있어야 하겠다. 학교급식이 아동의 식행동에 미치는 효과는 아동성별간이나 어머니의 직업 유무에 따라서는 단지 몇 항목을 제외하고는 차이가 없었으나 아동과 어머니간에는 2개 항목을 제외한 모든 항목에서 차이를 보였으며 아동보다 어머니들이 학교급식이 아동의 식행동에 미치는 영향에 대해 더 긍정적이었다. 이는 최근의 어머니들은 과거에 비해 아동의 식생활교육에 대해 학교교육에 대한 의존도가 높아졌다는 것을 의미한다. 결론적으로 학교급식은 어릴 때부터 아동들의 잘못된 식행동을 바로 잡아 신체적, 정신적인 성장 발달의 정상화를 이루고 보다 좋은 식습관을 형성시키는 데 도움을 준다고 할 수 있다. 그러므로 성장기 아동의 식생활 습관이 성인기의 건강에까지 영향을 미친다는 점을 고려하여 앞으로 영양사 뿐 아니라 초등 교사들도 학교 급식을 하나의 교육활동으로 간주하여 보다 적극적 인 자세로 지도에 임할 필요가 있다고 생각되며 이러한 효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 가정과 연계한 지도도 이루어져야 할 것이다.

  • This study was carried out to discover the effects of eating habits and health-related life style on blood pressure, $\gamma$-Glutamic acid Peptide Transferase($\gamma$-GPT), blood glucose and High Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol(HDL-C). 185 subjects(85 male, 100 female) were selected, who were living in the Cheonju area aged 40#s to 60#s. The mean systollic blood pressure(SBP), diastollic blood pressure (DBP), $\gamma$-GPT, fasting blood sugar(FBS) and HDL-C for all the subjects were 118mmHg, 77mmHg, 281U/l, 90mg/dl and 45mg/dl, respectively. The SBP and DBP for subuects over 60 years old were 126mmHg and 81mmHg and were significantly higher than subjects in their 40#s and 50#s(p<0.001, p<0.005). The HDL-C of the group that rarely ate breakfast was 57mg/dl and that was significantly higher than the 44mg/dl scored by those who ate breakfast everyday(p<0.05). The SBP for subjects having a snack 2-3 times/week was 125mmHg and that was significantly higher than the 114mmHg of those having a snack everyday(p<0.05). The $\gamma$-GPT for subjects consuming alcohol everyday was 44IU/L and that was significantly higher than 18IU/I of the non-drinking group(p<0.001). The $\gamma$-GPT of light smokers was 53IU/I and that was significantly higher than the 22IU/I for non-smoking participants(p<0.001). The DBP, SBP, $\gamma$-GPT, FBS and HDL-C related to exercise not significantly different. The SBP(p<0.001) and DBP(p-0.01) between age group was positively correlated. The $\gamma$-GPT between drinking frequency(p<0.001), drinking quantity(p<0.05), and smoking(p<0.05) was also positively correlated. The FBS between exercises had a negative correlation(p<0.05), and the HDL-C between breakfast had a negative correlation(p<0.05). These results indicate that decreasing drinking and smoking, when combined with appropriate exercise, will decrease the $\gamma$-GPT and fasting blood sugar level, and help preventing adult diseases.

  • 본 연구는 만 15~19세 남자 고등학생 902명을 대상으로 식행동, 간식 섭취, 식환경, 생활 습관에 대해 설문 조사를 실시하였고, 비만 판정을 위해 신장과 체중을 측정하여 식행동 패턴에 따른 간식 섭취 및 기타 요인과 비만과의 연관성을 분석하였다. 1) 청소년 식생활 지침의 항목을 이용하여 식행동을 평가한 결과 대상자들은 3가지 패턴으로 분류되었다. 식생활과 생활 습관 모두 건강한 패턴과 식생활과 생활 습관 면에서 건강한 요소와 비건강한 요소가 혼재되어있는 혼합 패턴, 그리고 마지막으로 식생활과 생활 습관이 전반적으로 바람직하지 않은 비건강 패턴이었다. 2) 각 패턴 별로 간식 섭취가 차이를 보였는데, 건강한 패턴은 과일, 우유, 호상요구르트의 섭취 빈도가 높았고, 혼합 패턴은 과일이나 호상요구르트 섭취 빈도가 높은 반면 라면, 아이스크림, 탄산음료, 사탕 섭취 빈도도 같이 높았으며, 비건강 패턴은 과일, 우유, 호상요구르트의 섭취 빈도가 다른 두 패턴에 비해 가장 낮은 반면 라면, 단 간식, 탄산음료 등의 간식 섭취 빈도는 가장 높았다. 3) 식환경을 포함한 생활 습관 요인도 패턴마다 상이했는데, 가정 내 식품 비치율은 각 식품 섭취 빈도와 유사하게 건강한 패턴과 혼합 패턴의 가정 내 과일 비치율이 비건강 패턴에 비해 높았다. 또한 혼합 패턴이 건강기능성 식품이나 식이 보충제 복용 비율이 가장 높았고, 비건강 패턴은 식사 속도, 수면 시간은 짧고 스크린 시간이 하루 2시간 이상인 비율이 가장 높았다. 4) 패턴 별 비만과의 연관성은 건강한 패턴을 기준으로 하였을 때, 혼합 패턴의 교차비는 1.11이었으나 유의하지 않았고, 비건강 패턴의 교차비는 1.88로 유의적이었다. 이상의 결과로부터 청소년의 식행동 패턴에 따라 간식 섭취 뿐 아니라 식습관, 생활 습관 요인이 차이를 보였으며 이러한 요인들이 비만과의 연관성에도 영향을 주었다. 식행동은 식품 섭취나 생활 습관 요인들과 서로 상호작용을 하므로 앞으로 청소년 비만 예방 및 관리를 위한 전략으로 적절한 영양 교육과 함께 식행동과 생활 습관을 함께 개선해 나갈 수 있는 방안을 모색하는 것이 필요하다.

  • The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the factors which university students feel as stress in their daily life and the correlation between these and their eating habits. The subject are students enrolled at 'H' university in Asan. There are 801 students who response for this research. We surveyed and analyzed the correlation between the life stress and eating habit of university students. It is analyzed that the objects suffered stress most by 'schooling' and 'job complication.' Surveying the general eating habit of university students, it is found that they do not eat meal regularly, i.e., 'average meals (40.9%)' and 'irregular meal(35.2%).' No significant difference was observed in the regularity of meals between sexes. When it comes to overeating or voracity, male students answered 'sometimes(77.6%)' or 'often(22.5%)', but female students answered 'sometimes(66.2%)' or 'often(28.2%)', which means that female students are more frequent in overeating or voracity. The frequency of eating snack is more than once a day 60.1% in female students and 47.3% in male students, which shows that the rate of female students is much higher than that of male students. Surveying the correlation between stress that male and female university students suffer and the regular meal, we found that both of them tend to eat meal irregularly if they are stressed. Comparing the stress for its factor, male students eat meal irregularly if they are stressed by 'schooling' and female students eat meal irregularly if they are stressed by 'figure.' Checking the correlation between stress and time spent for meal, it is found that while male students eat meal in a hurry when they are stressed by 'job affair', female students do so when they are stressed by 'home economy. Analyzing the correlation between frequency of snack and stress, both male and female tend to eat snack more frequently when they are stressed more. In general, males like the oily food more than male, but when students get stresses, females want to eat oily food than male. Analyzing the correlation between stress and preferential menu, males like green vegetables, sea food in the life get less stresses than others Females like a menu of meat get higher stress than others.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop of nutritional education activities and effect evaluation in related curriculums for all Dongbu Elementary School children in Jinhae by the teacher in charge. This educational purpose was to build a desirable dietary behavior for optimal growth and health in elementary school children. The educational program contents were developed according to 1) selection of content related curriculums 2) analysis of contents related on dietary habits by grade 3) preparation teaching plans to build desirable dietary habits 4) development of teaching manual by turns. Twelve hours of nutrition education at all school classes were done from March 2 to December 10 2004 in Dongbu Elementary School in Jinhae, Gyeongnam. The education effects were evaluated through the questionnaire surveys before and after the education and their comparative analysis. The results of this study were summarized as follows : Forty percent of the underweight group, $22.8\%$ of the normal group, $42.2\%$ of the obese group had the wrong perceptions on their body figures, but after nutrition education $80.5\%$ of the underweight group, $94.3\%$ of the normal group, $97.9\%$ of the obese group gleaned the correct perceptions on their body figures (p < 0.001). As the effects of the education, the subjects who exercise more than 3 times in a week increased in all groups (p < 0.01-0.001), notably in the obese group. Meal regularity (p < 0.001) , skipping meals (p < 0.001), eating rate and snack selection patterns (p < 0.01-p < 0.001) also improved by nutrition education. We could also observe the effects of the nutrition education through the affirmative statements which appeared in their dietary records. These results showed a possibility of nutrition education activities in related curriculums to improve in dietary habits of school children. Next year, we will start with the system of nutrition teachers in elementary school, but nutrition teacher cannot undertake the task of teaching and food service management alone. Because of that, we intend to develop this program as an alternative proposal for the nutrition education in elementary schools. (Korean J Community Nutrition 10(6) $795\∼804$, 2005)

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing body mass index of 618 university students located in the Gwangju area, from Nov. 20th to 30th, 2002. The subjects included 301 males(48.7%) and 317 females(51.3%). This survey was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire. The percentage of students who were underweight, normal and overweight based on their body mass index(BMI) was 3.7, 88.0 and 8.3 for the males, and 29, 71 and 0 for the females, respectively. Most students (73.8%) skipped breakfast. This was because of lack of time(65.1%) of the cases. Self-reported eating habit problems were eating irregular meal(52.4%), overeating(21%), prejudiced meal(12.4%) and skipping meal(7.4%). The type of favorite snack was biscuit(31.9%) and cup Ramyon(31.9%). The type of favorite beverage was juice(23.3%). The coffee intake was higher in males compared to females. The rates of alcohol drinking in male and female students were 88.0% and 85.8% respectively, and the rates of smoking were 35.9% and 2.8% respectively. Percentages of weight control experience were 30.2 and 51.4 in the male and female, respectively. The BMI of students living in home and eating breakfast was higher than that of the other students. The BMI of students eating cup Ramyon and water increased. The BMI of students taking regular exercise and weight control tended to be higher than that of subjects not doing so. When the amount of pocket money available and the rates of coffee intake, alchol drinking and smoking increased, the BMI was increased. Therefore, nutritional education for university students is needed so as to improve their health and to modify life habits and nutritional education program should be developed to meet the various needs of these students.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of nutrition education on elementary school students based on the theory of multiplex intelligence. Of the 56 elementary school students that participated in this survey, 37 (66.0%) had no siblings. The number of students whose mothers had jobs and those whose mothers did not work were 37 (67.9%) and 18 (32.1%), respectively. Food consumption with ordinary diets was normal in 23 students (41.1%) and the average frequency of snack intake and eating-out was determined to be twice a day (41 students, 73.2%) and once or twice per week (36 students, 64.3%), respectively. The most popular type of food consumed when eating-out was 'fast foods' in 28 students (50.0%). It was determined that on average, 39 students (69.6%) snacked between lunch and dinner time and 31 (55.4%) selected snacks based on information obtained through 'mass media'. Analysis of the effects of nutrition education revealed an increase in the number of correct answers to the question 'foods with high nutritional value are high calorie foods,' with significant difference, but not in other questionnaires. In addition, the correct information for calcium (p<.05), good dietary habits (p<.001), food poisoning (p<.05), and six groups of nutrients in foods (p<.001) improved after nutrition education, with significant differences. As a result, the ratio of correct answers increased after nutrition education, with a significant difference (p<.001). After the education, the experimental group had a higher total score than the control group, with significant difference (p<.01).
