以前的研究表明，超重的拉丁裔儿童低估了他们的身体尺寸。对身体大小的错误认知可能具有重要的健康和行为影响，并成为体重控制的重要障碍。这项研究的目的是确定儿童对自己身体大小的看法是否在儿童肥胖干预后变得更加准确，重点是增加体力活动。这项分析包括61名超重（体重指数≥85%）的拉丁裔儿童（8-11岁），他们完成了一项初步随机对照试验。干预后，干预组中40.7%（11/27）的儿童准确地评估了他们的身体尺寸，而对照组中只有21.2%（7/33）。差异表明有显著性趋势（P = 0.09）。参加每月一次的身体活动技能建设会议可能会增加儿童对身体尺寸感知的准确性。这可能是改变行为的重要的第一步。
Previous research has shown that overweight Latino children underestimate their body size. Erroneous perception of body size may have important health and behavioral implications and serve as a significant barrier to weight control. The aim of this study was to determine whether children’s perceptions of their body size became more accurate following a pediatric obesity intervention focused on increasing physical activity. This analysis includes 61 overweight (body mass index ≥85%) Latino children (aged 8–11 years) parent-child dyads who completed a pilot randomized control trial. After the intervention, 40.7% (11/27) of children in the intervention group rated their body size accurately compared to 21.2% (7/33) in the control group. The difference indicates a trend towards significance (P = .09). Participating in monthly physical activity skill building sessions may increase children’s accuracy in body size perception. This may be an important first step towards behavior modification.
