Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and the affecting risk factors of obesity and the eating habits among adolescents. Methods: The study is a descriptive in design. The research was carried out between December 2013 and February 2014 at a private university in Ankara. This study was conducted with 260 students. The data were presented as frequencies, mean, standard deviations and were analyzed by test of chi-square, Pearson correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis. Data were collected using an Interview Questionnaire, the Eating Habits Index and anthropometric measurements were performed. Results: The mean age of students was 20.87±2.29. Prevalence of overweight and obesity among students were 23.1% and 6.5% respectively. The prevalence of overweight and obesity was related with male gender (p<0.05), family history of obesity (95% CI: 2.22-2.43), fast eating habit (p<0.05), and healthy dietary habits (95% CI: 1.02-2.85). The percents of moderate grade and high grade risk groups of students according to Eating Habits Index were 56.5 and 30.8 respectively. Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among adolescents in this study was determined to be high. The prevention and control of obesity is urgently needed. In this content, comprehensive strategies of intervention propose periodical monitoring, education on pattern of nutrition, and healthy dietary behaviors.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, adölesanlarda obesite sıklığı, etkileyen risk faktörleri ve beslenme alışkanlıklarını belirlemektir. Yöntem: Araştırma tanımlayıcı tipte bir araştırmadır. Araştırma Ankara'da bir vakıf üniversitesinde Aralık 2013-Şubat 2014 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma 260 öğrenci ile yürütülmüştür. Verilerin analizinde sıklık ve yüzde dağılımları, ortalama ve standart sapma, ki- kare testi, Pearson korelasyon analizi ve logistik regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Veriler; görüşme formu, Beslenme Alışkanlıkları İndeksi ve antropometrik ölçümler uygulanarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmada öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 20,87±2,29'dir. Öğrenciler arasında sırasıyla aşırı kilo sıklığı %23,1, obezite sıklığı %6,5 olarak belirlemiştir. Kiloluluk ve obezite sıklığı; erkek cinsiyet (p<0.05), ailede obezite öyküsü (%95 GA: 2,22-2,43), hızlı yeme alışkanlığı (p<0.05) ve sağlıklı beslenme alışkanlığı (%95 GA: 1,02-2,85) ile ilişkili bulunmuştur. Öğrencilerin Beslenme Alışkanlıkları İndeks'ine göre %56,5'inin orta, %30,8'inin yüksek risk grubunda oldukları belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Bu çalışmada adölesanlarda kiloluluk ve obezite sıklığının yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Obezitenin önlenmesi ve kontrolüne acilen ihtiyaç vardır. Bu doğrultuda kapsamlı uygulama stratejilerinde periyodik izleme, beslenme eğitimi ve sağlıklı beslenme davranışlarının önerilmesi uygun görülmüştür.
