Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 護理學研究所 === 82 === The purpose of this study is to understand the present
condition and explore the relate factors for the behavior
of body-weight control of obese adults. The subjects of 152
obese adults come from a technology company. The data were
collected through the structured questionnaire and face to face
interview. The results are as followed:1)The prevalence rate
of obesity in that company was 13.6%. Most individuals had
strong intention of body-weight control, but some were less
aggressive and about one-third of the samples adapted the
method of external-adjust in the last one year. 2)The
benefit of body-weight control, the threat of obesity to
personal image and the frequency of previons weight reduction
can explain for 32% variance of intention of body-weight
control. 3)The frequency of previous weight reduction,
the benefit of body-weight control, food accesibility and
education level can explain for 21% variance of
aggressiveness of body-weight control. 4)The differences
in method of weight control was related to benefit of body-
weight cotrol, the threat of obesity to personal image, social
pressure situation, and some of characteristic variables. in
addition the prediction model can be established by
discriminate analysis. This study suggests the health-promting
body-weight control should be considered as a long-term fow-
up course, and a team of health professionals should be
involed. Nursing staffs and the health-relating desciplines
should emphase the meanings of the influencing factors of
intention of body-weight control. Mean while, they should
provide complete and correct recognition of weight control,
explore the effect of previous weight reduction, assist the
client to face the obstracle of doing weight control and
develop intervention. And they should be aware of the effect
of variance of psycho-social and characteristics on choosing
the method for practising weigh control.
