Abstract

Obesity is an important health problem. There are limited number of studies about eating disorders in obese children and these studies are generally focused to binge eating disorders. The aim of this study is to investigate the eating attitudes of obese adolescents. The study sample consisted of a clinical group of 30 obese adolescents, a non-clinical obese group of 30 obese adolescents and control group of non-obese adolescents. Psychological assessments were administered using a non-structured psychiatric interview and Eating Attitude Test (EAT). There was no difference between the groups according to gender and age. The mean age of the adolescents was 13.8+1.3. 53.3% were girls and 46.7% were boys. The mean total scores of EAT of the obese groups were significantly higher than the non obese group. The mean total score of EAT of the clinically obese group was significantly higher than the non-clinically obese group. These results suggest that obese adolescents reveal a higher ratio of eating attitudes than non obese adolescents. Findings provided that clinically obese group has more eating problems than non-clinically obese patients.

Özet

Çocuk ve gençlerde görülme sıklığı gittikçe artan, obez hastalarda, yeme bozukluklarını araştıran çalışmaların sayısı oldukça kısıtlı olup bu konuda en çok vurgulanan tıkınırcasına yeme bozukluğudur. Bu çalışmanın amacı obez gençlerde yeme tutumlarının araştırılmasıdır. Ekzojen obezite tanısı konmuş 12-15 yaş arasında 60 (otuz tanesi tedavi için hastaneye başvurmuş, otuz tanesi toplum ömekleminden seçilmiş) ve kontrol amacıyla normal kiloda 30 genç çalışma kapsamına alınmıştır. Hastaların psikiyatrik muayeneleri yapılmış ve yeme tutum testi verilmiştir. Gruplar arasında yaş ve cinsiyet açısından bir fark olmayıp, yaş ortalaması 13.8 ± 1.3'dür. Olguların %53.3'ü kız, %46,7'si erkektir. Obez gençlerde yeme tutumu testi puanı kontrol grubundan daha yüksek bulunmuştur (f=10.9, p=0.0001). Psikiyatrik muayene sonucunda obezlerde %6.7 oranında tıkınırcasına yeme bozukluğuna rastlanmıştır. Obez gereçlerde yeme tutumu sorunlarına daha fazla rastlanması ve tıkınırcasına yeme bozukluğu görülme oranlarının toplum ömekleminden yüksek oranda olması, bu grupta yeme bozukluklarının araştırması ve bu alanda psikiyatrik destek verilmesinin önemini göstermiştir.
