Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of a multi agent obesity control program in obese school children. This program was composed of strategies to modify diet and exercise habits and to change cognitive behavior variables(stress, coping, and self-efficacy).

Method: The subjects were 40 obese school children who participated in our project voluntarily via homepage, TV, newspaper, public paper and school official documents. The program was implemented daily for 4 sessions per day for ten days from August 16 to 26, 2004. The daily program consisted of exercise therapy, dance therapy, cognitive behavior therapy and aroma therapy. The data was analyzed by paired t-test using the SPSSWIN program.

Result: There was a significant decrease in children¡¯¡¯s waist-hip ratio(p=.04) and in children¡¯¡¯s stress(p=.00) after the program. There was a significant increase in children¡¯¡¯s self-confidence after the program(p=.02) and a significant decrease in children¡¯¡¯s diet habit after the program(p=.02).

Conclusion: This study provides evidence that a multiagent obese control program is effective in changing waist-hip ratio, stress, self-confidence, and diet habits in obese school children.
