초록

Weight control in obese people have been affected by self perception of body image more than body mass index. We conducted this study to identify the agreement and associating factors between self-perceived obesity and obesity classified by body measure in obese and overweighted adults.
Methods: The data were collected from 293 subjects who visited health examination center of a university hospital located in Gyeong-ju between July 7th ,2008 and Oct 31th, 2008 and had body mass index(BMI)≥23kg/m2 by self questionnaire.
Results: One hundred and ninety three(65.9%) participants had the agreement between self perception and measurement of obesity classified body mass index, but the agreement was lower for abdominal obesity with 134(45.7%) participants agreeing. Factors related to disagreement of self perception as obese and obesity classified by body measure were sex, age, family history of obesity.
Conclusion: Considerable disagreement was identified between self perception as obese and obesity classified by body measure in obese and overweight adults. We should check disagreement before recommending weight control in these people.
