The purpose of the study is to find out the relationship between obesity, hedonic hunger and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). The questionnaire containing items on the sociodemographic characteristics, anthropometric measurements and nutritional habits of individuals ( = 902), the Children's Power of Food Scale and the KIDSCREEN-10 were used to determine the hedonic hunger and the HRQoL score. Hedonic hunger and HRQoL were evaluated according to the categories, frequency of consumption of sugary drinks and fast food. The females were found to have hedonic hunger more than the males ( < 0.05). Body mass index z-score categories of the adolescents showed that the obese eat more hedonically compared to the underweight and the normal-weight ( < 0.05), and this difference was not observed in the HRQoL scores ( > 0.05). There was a negative correlation between the hedonic hunger status and the HRQoL scores ( = -0.342, = 0.000). The consumption of sugary drinks and fast food was associated with hedonic hunger and HRQoL scores in certain groups. Hedonic hunger is associated with obesity; hedonic hunger and quality of life are important factors associated with unhealthy food and drink intake.
本研究的目的是找出肥胖、享乐性饥饿与健康相关生活质量（HRQoL）之间的关系。使用包含个体社会人口学特征、人体测量指标和营养习惯（n = 902）的问卷、儿童食物力量量表和儿童生活质量量表10项版来确定享乐性饥饿和HRQoL得分。根据类别、含糖饮料和快餐的消费频率对享乐性饥饿和HRQoL进行评估。发现女性比男性更易出现享乐性饥饿（P < 0.05）。青少年的体重指数z评分类别显示，肥胖者比体重过轻和正常体重者在享乐性饮食方面更多（P < 0.05），而在HRQoL得分方面未观察到这种差异（P > 0.05）。享乐性饥饿状态与HRQoL得分之间存在负相关（r = -0.342，P = 0.000）。在某些群体中，含糖饮料和快餐的消费与享乐性饥饿和HRQoL得分相关。享乐性饥饿与肥胖有关；享乐性饥饿和生活质量是与不健康饮食摄入相关的重要因素。
