本研究之目的在探討國小學童體重控制介入計畫,對學童營養知識、態度、行爲之影響。研究設計爲類實驗研究,對象爲台中市某國小之四、五年級的肥胖學童,實驗組與對照組各有52名,共計104名。總共觀察三個月期間,其中實驗組接受六週之營養教育課程及體能訓練課,對照組並無任何介入活動,並在前後時期比較兩組學童營養知識、態度與行爲之影響。問卷事前經過預測,信度及效度測試後,才進行資料收集。回收問卷後經編碼與譯碼,再以SAS/pc+6.04統計軟體進行分析。結果顯示:體重控制介入計畫可增加學童營養知識,有統計上之差異但進步不大;對營養態度亦有正面影響,但在統計上並無明顯之差異;在飮食行爲上除油脂類,對照組反而較實驗組爲低外,其他飮食類別兩組均無明顯之差別,因此本次介入計畫效果在營養知識及態度略有效果,而攝食行爲則無明顯改變。因此,本介入計畫尚需進一步探討其成效,尤其受到部分幹擾因素(例如:同儕污染、介入教材內容及方式等)均可做爲未來體重控制介入計畫之參考。
The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of body weight reduction program regarding knowledge, attitude, and behavior toward nutrition among elementary school childrens. A quasi-experimental design was conducted with an observation three months. A total of 104 obesity childrens of the 4th and 5th grades participated in the current study. Fifty-two of the 104 children were in the experimental group; the other fifty-two children were in the control group. Subjects were interviewed by a questionnaire verified through validity and reliability test for measuring knowledge, attitude and behavior toward nutrition. All information was analyzed using SAS/PC+6.04 package. The results showed that obesity children's knowledge, attitude, and behavior toward nutrition in the experimental group were slightly higher and more positive than those in the control group. Conclusively, this weight reduction program was slightly effective for obesity childrens, but no significant difference in two groups, however, the intervention of obesity reduction must be achieved by a long-term cooperation among school, children and parents.
