Abstract

Background and purpose: ADOLESCENT GIRLS as future mothers have a very important function to train healthy generation and it is important to focus on their nutrition status. Therefore in this survey the effects of socioeconomic factors on body mass index (BMI) (as a nutrition status indicator) was assessed.Materials and methods: The subjects were 240 ADOLESCENT GIRLS, 14 to 18 years of age. Weight and height measurements of samples were assessed; their BMI was obtained and compared with BMI age and sex-specific growth charts from the centers for disease control and prevention (CDC) in 2000. A general questionnaire (about parent education, family economical condition and number of household) for all of the samples was completed.Results: A significant relationship between BMI status and number of household was observed but parent education and family economical condition had no significant effects on BMI status.Conclusion: Populous families could affect the household's BMI status; in addition we need wide epidemiologic studies to prepare a suitable standard for Iran to assess SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS of people.
