주요내용

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between subjective social status, weight perception, weight control behaviors and weight status in Korean adolescents using the nationally representative data collected from 2009 Korea Youth Risk Behaviors Web-based Survey.
METHODS: Data from 67,185 students aged 12–18 years (35,582 male adolescents and 31,603 female adolescents) from 400 middle schools and 400 high schools were analyzed. Relationships between subjective social status, weight perception, weight control behaviors in male and female students were examined using Chi-square test. To assess the potential associations between multiple variables and overweight students, logistic regression analysis was performed adjusted for school grade and place of residence.
RESULTS: Lower subjective social status was associated with a great risk of being overweight in female students, but not in male students. It was an interesting thing that overestimation and underestimation coexist within male students, and female students tended to overestimate their weight status. Inaccurate weight perception and unhealthy weight control behaviors were significantly associated with the risk of being overweight in both male and female students.
CONCLUSION: Considering sex differences in weight perception and weight control behaviors in this study, sex-specific overweight prevention programs are needed to achieve accurate weight perception and healthy weight control behaviors.
