OBJECTIVES
To assess the adequacy of self-reported weight and height as indicators for BMI in community-based obesity control programs.
METHODS
Self-reported and measured weight and height and calculated BMI in 6979 adults were assessed using analysis of covariance.
RESULTS
Prevalence of obesity (BMI > 25 kg/m(2)) and overweight (25-29.9 kg/m(2)) was lower using self-reported values by 3.2% and 5.0%, respectively. Females underreported BMI more than males did; and older subjects, more than younger subjects.
CONCLUSIONS
Self-reported weight and height measurements may be used for the evaluation of community-based obesity control programs with the application of correction factors. This will minimize costs associated with physical measurements.
目的
评估在社区肥胖控制项目中，自我报告的体重和身高作为身体质量指数（BMI）指标的充分性。
方法
采用协方差分析评估了6979名成年人自我报告的体重和身高、测量的体重和身高以及计算得出的BMI。
结果
使用自我报告值时，肥胖（BMI>25kg/m²）和超重（25-29.9kg/m²）的患病率分别低3.2%和5.0%。女性比男性更易少报BMI；年长者比年轻者更易少报。
结论
自我报告的体重和身高测量值在应用校正因子后可用于评估社区肥胖控制项目。这将使与身体测量相关的成本降至最低。
