Abstract

The present study revealed the existence of dual burden of underweight (35.5%) and overweight (5.1%) among the GNM students with mean body mass index of 20.14 and no obesity. The prevalence of faulty weight perception was 38.6% and was found to be weighted towards feeling higher weight. This accounted for the relatively lower prevalence of perceived underweight (24.4%) perceived normal weight (50%) and higher prevalence of perceived overweight (25.6%) compared to actual weight status based on body mass index.

摘要

本研究揭示，在平均体重指数为20.14且无肥胖症的GNM学生中，存在体重过轻（35.5%）和超重（5.1%）的双重负担。体重感知错误的患病率为38.6%，且发现倾向于感觉自己体重更高。与基于体重指数的实际体重状况相比，这导致了感知体重过轻（24.4%）、感知正常体重（50%）的患病率相对较低，以及感知超重（25.6%）的患病率较高。
