Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the BMI of enlisted soldiers, to understand the difference between their BMI and that of other men in their age group, and to identify the influence factors of enlisted soldiers' BMI change. The survey has been conducted self-evaluation questionnaire from 23 Feb. 2009 to 31 Mar. 2009 from 4 different forces as methods. Independent-sample T-test, chi-square test and multiple linear regression analysis were used for statistical analysis from 301 collected data. As a result of surveying enlisted soldiers' BMI, their obesity rate 18.6% was lower than 22.1% of other men in their age group. In terms of health behavior, the underweight&normal weight group(2.39) showed higher diet score than the overweight group(2.13), showing that the underweight&normal weight group ate relatively slowly, less spicy and less sweet food compared to the overweight group. The overweight group(2.25) showed lower satisfaction with their body type than the underweight&normal weight group(2.98), while the overweight group(4.01) showed a significantly higher score than the underweight&normal weight group(3.37) for weight control activity. The influence factors of BMI change were diet habit, subjective perception of body type, and weight control activity. In order to improve of enlisted soldiers' BMI, it would be necessary to improve the food service and the snack bars for interventional control of food that influence obesity, rather than personal effort, in addition, education for right body-shape perception and encouraging on weight control activity.

본 연구는 현역병을 대상으로 BMI 현황과 같은 연령대의 남성에 비해 BMI가 어떤 차이가 있는지 및 현역병의 BMI 변화에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지 확인하고자 하였다. 연구방법으로는 4개 부대에서 복무 중인 현역병을 대상으로 2009년 2월 23일부터 3월 31일까지 자기기입식 설문을 실시하였다. 통계분석에는 총 301명을 대상으로 독립표본 T-검정, 교차분석 및 다중선형회귀분석이 사용되었다. 연구결과, 현역병의 과체중 비율은 18.6%로 같은 연령대 남성의 22.1%에 비해 낮아 또래 남성에 비해 현역병의 비만율이 낮은 것으로 확인되었다. 건강행태에서는 정상체중 이하 군(2.39)이 과체중군(2.13)보다 식습관 점수가 높아 정상군이 상대적으로 천천히 먹고, 맵고 단것을 덜 먹는 것으로 확인되었다. 과체중군(2.25)이 정상체중 이하 군(2.98)에 비해 자신의 체형에 대한 만족도가 낮은 반면 체중조절활동은 과체중군(4.01)이 정상체중 이하 군(3.37)보다 점수가 유의하게 더 높게 나타났다. BMI 변화에 대한 영향요인으로는 식습관, 주관적 체형인식, 체중조절활동이 확인되었다. 따라서 현역병의 BMI를 향상시키기 위해서는 개인적 노력보다는 단체 급식과 군 내 매점 운영을 개선하여 조직차원에서 비만에 영향을 주는 요인에 접촉하지 못하도록 하는 중재노력 및 올바른 체형인식에 대한 교육, 체중조절활동에 대한 독려가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
