To investigate the associations between dietary patterns and mental health status of female university students.
Self-administered questionnaires consisting of measures of food intake frequency and mental health status were completed by 320 female university students. Food intake frequency was assessed using the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Then, dietary patterns were identified by cluster analysis. The 28-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28) was used to evaluate students' mental health status. Relationships between the dietary patterns and the mental health status were analyzed.
We identified three dietary patterns. "The Japanese foods pattern in youth" was a representative food intake pattern of this generation. "The light eating pattern" had lower intakes of most items but higher intakes of soft drinks, and was not interested in nutrition balance. "The dairy products pattern" had higher intakes of dairy products and sweets, and were significantly associated with high scores of GHQ-28 subscale anxiety and insomnia.
The dietary patterns are associated with the mental health status of female university students.
探讨女大学生饮食模式与心理健康状况之间的关联。
320名女大学生完成了由食物摄入频率测量和心理健康状况测量构成的自填式问卷。使用食物频率问卷（FFQ）评估食物摄入频率。然后，通过聚类分析确定饮食模式。采用28项一般健康问卷（GHQ-28）评估学生的心理健康状况。分析饮食模式与心理健康状况之间的关系。
我们确定了三种饮食模式。“青年期日本食物模式”是这一代人具有代表性的食物摄入模式。“清淡饮食模式”大多数食物摄入量较低，但软饮料摄入量较高，且对营养均衡不感兴趣。“乳制品模式”的乳制品和甜食摄入量较高，并且与GHQ-28分量表焦虑和失眠的高分显著相关。
饮食模式与女大学生的心理健康状况相关。
