目的
该研究的目的是调查美国公立高中学生对相对减肥的看法及其与体力活动水平、看电视时间和减肥努力的关系。
方法
1990 年青少年风险行为调查 (YRBS) 的自我报告数据被用来分析这些关系。 YRBS 由美国疾病控制与预防中心 (CDC) 青少年和学校健康司 (DASH) 开发和管理，旨在评估对美国青少年造成不良健康结果的重要健康行为。本次分析共有 10,870 名黑人、西班牙裔和白人受访者。
结果
在这个样本中，24.8% 的人认为自己“太胖”。在该群体中，76.4% 的人正在尝试减肥。在那些表示自己“太胖”并正在努力减肥的人中，女性占74.4%。体重认知的性别差异显着 (p < .001)，女性 (34.6%) 比男性 (14.4%) 更有可能报告“太胖”。白人 (26.0%) 比西班牙裔 (23.9%) 和黑人 (17.2%) 更常报告“太胖”(p < .001)。不吃饭和运动是最常见的减肥策略。西班牙裔人最有可能不吃饭，其次是白人和黑人。白人比其他群体更有可能使用锻炼作为减肥手段。自认为“太胖”的青少年比其他人报告剧烈活动的天数更少 (p < .001)、体育课上剧烈运动的时间更少 (p < .001) 以及上学期间看电视的时间更长 (p < .001)。
结论
四分之一的美国高中生认为自己超重；这些学生中有四分之三正在努力减肥。与那些不认为自己超重的青少年相比，那些认为自己超重的青少年身体活动较少，并且花更多时间看电视。
PURPOSE
The purpose of the study was to examine, among public high school students across the United States, perceptions of relative weight-loss and its relationship to physical activity levels, time spent viewing television, and efforts to lose weight.
METHODS
Self-reported data from the 1990 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) were used to analyze these relationships. The YRBS was developed and administered by the Division of Adolescent and School Health (DASH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), to assess important health behaviors which contribute significantly to adverse health outcomes among American youth. A total of 10,870 black, Hispanic, and white respondents were included in this analysis.
RESULTS
From this sample, 24.8% perceived themselves as being "too fat." Of that group, 76.4% were trying to lose weight. Females comprised 74.4% of those reporting that they were "too fat" and trying to lose weight. Gender differences in weight perceptions were significant (p < .001), with females (34.6%) being more likely than males (14.4%) to report being "too fat." Whites (26.0%) reported being "too fat" more often than did Hispanics (23.9%) and blacks (17.2%) (p < .001). Skipping meals and exercise were the most commonly reported weight loss strategies. Hispanics were most likely to skip meals, followed by whites and blacks. Whites were more likely than the other groups to use exercise as a means of losing weight. Adolescents who perceived themselves as "too fat" reported fewer days of strenuous activity (p < .001), fewer hours of strenuous exercise in physical education class (p < .001), and more hours spent viewing television on school days (p < .001) than others.
CONCLUSIONS
One quarter of U.S. high school students perceive themselves as overweight; three-quarters of these students are trying to lose weight. Adolescents who perceive themselves as overweight are less physically active and spend more time viewing television than those who do not perceive themselves as overweight.
