Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of ABSI (a Body Shape Index) and perceived body shape on SRH (Self-Rated Health) and QOL (Quality of Life) among Korean adults aged 19 and over. A statistical analysis was performed by dividing ABSI of the subjects by the third quartile (Q1-Q3). The results showed that the prevalence of poor SRH was 1.624 times (OR 1.624 95% CI: 1.352 to1.950) higher in the Q3 group than in the Q1 group. The prevalence of poor SRH was significantly higher in those who perceived themselves as underweight and in those who perceived themselves as overweight than in those who defined their body weight as normal, by 1.459 times (OR: 1.459 95% CI: 1.242 to 1.714) and 2.041 times (OR: 2.041 95% CI: 1.755 to 2.374), respectively. In addition, there was no statistical difference between ABSI and QOL, but it was found that the quality of life score was significantly lower in the group who perceived themselves as obese than in the group who perceived themselves as normal in body shape (B: -0.010 95% CI: -0.014 to ?0.006). As a result of examining ABSI and perceived body shape on SRH and QOL, the ABSI Q3 group-obese body shape perception group had 2.967 times(OR: 2.967 95% CI: 1.996 to 4.411) higher poor SRH than the ABSI Q1 group-normal body shape perception group and QOL scores were statistically significantly reduced (B -0.014 95% CI -0.026 to -0.002). Considering that SRH and QOL are able to predict the present and future health status of the individual in a multidimensional manner, it is necessary to closely observe individual body shape index and perception of subjective body shape.
