Abstract

Background Eating behavior in female adolescent is influenced by several factors, but mostly by body image. Body image concerns and disordered eating behaviors may present differently in different cultures. Unfortunately the role of body image is still less developed. Objective To determine the association between body image and eating behavior in female adolescent. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on February 2013 in Methodist-1 Senior High School, Medan. The subjects are female adolescent students aged 10 to 19 years old. Eating behavior was assessed by Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaires (DEBQ) for measuring restrained, emotional and external eating. Body image was assessed by Contour Drawing Rating Scale. All subjects’ body weight and height were also measured. Data were analyzed by using Pearson’s correlation and linear regression. Results A total of 184 subjects were eligible with this study. It was found that body image has a weak correlation with restrained DEBQ (r = 0.206, P<0.05). Nutrition status has a weak correlation with restrained DEBQ (r = 0.303, P<0.05), and also has a weak correlation with external DEBQ (r = -0.243, P<0.05). Age has a weak correlation with emotional DEBQ (r = 0.238, P<0.05) Conclusion There was a weak correlation between body image and restrained eating behaviour in female adolescent. The fatter a female adolescent is, the more tendency she will has restrained eating behaviour. Emotional eating behaviour among female adolescent is influenced by their ages.
