Pages

  15-22

Abstract

 Objective: OBESITY and OVERWEIGHT have shown an increasing trend in most developing countries. Childhood OBESITY would impose numerous health-related problems. This study was conducted to determine the correlation of OBESITY and OVERWEIGHT with emotional-behavioral problems in primary school age girls.Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 300 primary school girls (aged 7-11 years) were selected using a multistaged sampling method, including randomized cluster and stratified method. For all students body mass index was measured and then based on BMI for age and sex, from each grade (1-5), 20 students were selected for each group of normal weight, OVERWEIGHT and obese. The emotional-behavioral problems were evaluated using BEHAVIOR CHECKLIST/fa?page=1&sort=1&ftyp=all&fgrp=all&fyrs=all" target="_blank">CHILD BEHAVIOR CHECKLIST that consists of 113 items for childhood BEHAVIORal problems.Findings: Total BEHAVIORal problems were seen in 17%, 27%, and 2% in obese, OVERWEIGHT, and normal weight CHILDREN, respectively. Internalizing problems (including Anxious/Depressed, Withdrawn, and Somatic Complaints) were seen in 11%, 15%, and 2% and externalizing problems (including Aggressive and Delinquent BEHAVIORs) were observed in 8%, 17%, and 2% in obese, OVERWEIGHT, and normal weight CHILDREN, respectively. The mean scores in all scales were higher in obese and OVERWEIGHT CHILDREN in comparison with normal weight CHILDREN and the emotional-behavioral problems had significant positive correlation with OBESITY and OVERWEIGHT (P<0.01).Conclusion: Despite the cultural differences between east and west, yet there are similarities in the most of the emotional-behavioral problems related to OVERWEIGHT and OBESITY. Also, it seems that the risk of BEHAVIORal-emotional problems in OVERWEIGHT girls is more than in obese girls. OVERWEIGHT and OBESITY prevention may be a primary preventive step for these problems in CHILDREN.
