The purposes of this study were to (1) examine the multi-year prevalence of highly caffeinated beverage (HCB) consumption, (2) identify sex differences in the prevalence, and (3) investigate relationships between HCB consumption and behavioral characteristics in a nationally representative sample of Korean adolescents.
Data from the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (2014-2017) were analyzed.
HCB consumption was higher in 2017 than 2014 (23.9% vs. 12.0%), and higher among boys than girls (17.2% vs. 13.1%). HCB drinkers were more likely to (1) be boys, (2) be overweight or obese, (3) use alcohol and tobacco, (4) consume soda at least once per week, (5) consume sweetened beverages at least once per week, (6) have seriously considered suicide during the past 12 months, and (7) have attempted suicide during the past 12 months (p<0.05 for all).
Effective programs to curb HCB consumption among Korean adolescents need to be established.
本研究的目的是：（1）调查高咖啡因饮料（HCB）消费的多年患病率；（2）确定患病率中的性别差异；（3）在具有全国代表性的韩国青少年样本中，研究HCB消费与行为特征之间的关系。
分析了韩国青少年风险行为网络调查（2014 - 2017年）的数据。
2017年HCB消费量高于2014年（23.9%对12.0%），且男孩高于女孩（17.2%对13.1%）。饮用HCB的人更有可能：（1）是男孩；（2）超重或肥胖；（3）使用酒精和烟草；（4）每周至少饮用一次汽水；（5）每周至少饮用一次含糖饮料；（6）在过去12个月内认真考虑过自杀；（7）在过去12个月内尝试过自杀（所有p<0.05）。
需要制定有效的项目来抑制韩国青少年的HCB消费。
