Given the serious consequences of unhealthy weight control behaviors (UWCB) among adolescents, identifying factors contributing to it in this population is crucial. Although gender differences have been reported as UWCB-related factors, studies on weight status remain limited. Hence, using a nationally representative sample, we investigated the differences in UWCB-related factors by gender and weight status. Most sociodemographic, health-related behavior, psychosocial, and school factors were remarkably correlated with UWCB in the normal-weight female group; however, they demonstrated most inconsistent correlations in the overweight female group. Overall, this study suggests that UWCB-preventing interventions in adolescents should be customized by gender and weight status.
鉴于青少年不健康的体重控制行为（UWCB）所带来的严重后果，确定导致这种行为的因素至关重要。尽管已有研究报道了与 UWCB 相关的性别差异，但关于体重状况的研究仍然有限。因此，本研究使用全国代表性样本，调查了不同性别和体重状况的青少年在 UWCB 相关因素上的差异。在正常体重的女性组中，大多数社会人口统计学、健康相关行为、心理社会和学校因素与 UWCB 显著相关；然而，在超重女性组中，这些因素的相关性最为不一致。总的来说，这项研究表明，针对青少年的 UWCB 预防干预措施应该根据性别和体重状况进行定制。
