The Effects of Life Stress and Eating Habits among Nursing Students on Eating Behavior
본 연구는 2018년 10월 10일∼13일까지 G시 간호대학 2, 3학년을 대상으로 식행동에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구결과, 식행동은 대상자의 용돈 중 식비(F=5.83, p=.003), 식생활 패턴(F=4.14, p<.001), 편식 정도(F=9.27, p<.001)에 따라 유의한 차이가 있었다. 변수 간 의 상관관계는 식행동은 생활 스트레스(r=-.16, p=.001) 및 식습관(r=.50, p<.001)과 유의한 상관관계가 있었다. 식행동에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 식습관(β=.42, p<.001), 용돈 중 식비(β=-.14, p=.007), 편 식상태(β=-.14, p=.007), 생활 스트레스(β=-.13, p=.010) 순으로 나타났으며 설명력은 30.6%로 식행동 모형은 유의하였다(F=26.63, p<.001). 본 연구결과를 토대로 건강한 식생활 실천할 수 있는 방법을 모색할 필요가 있으리라 사료된다.
This study is a descriptive survey research conducted on second and third year nursing students located in G city from October 10 to 13, 2018, in order to assess the effects of life stress and eating habits among nursing students on eating behavior. The results of the study showed that there were differences in the subjects' eating behavior in terms of the amount of pocket money spent on food (F=5.83, p=.003), dietary pattern (F=4.14, p<.001), and unbalanced diet (F=9.27, p<.001). Eating behavior had a significant correlation with life stress (r=-.16, p=.001) and eating habits (r=.50, p<.001). Factors that affected eating behavior included eating habits (β=.42, p<.001), food expenses taken out of pocket money (β=-.14, p=.007), unbalanced diet(β=-.14, p=.007), and life stress (β=-.13, p=.010), and the explanatory power of these factors was 30.6% (F=26.63, p<.001). Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to find a way to promote the practice of having a healthy diet.
