Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Servisinde Bebeği Yatan Obez ve Obez Olmayan Annelerin Emzirme Tutumlarının Yeme Tutumları ve Beden Algısı ile İlişkisi

Öz

Amaç: Araştırma obez ve obez olmayan annelerin emzirme tutumlarının, yeme tutumu ve beden algısı ile ilişkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır.

Materyal ve Metot: Tanımlayıcı araştırmanın örneklemini 248 kadın (obez=120; obez olmayan=128) oluşturmuştur. Veriler Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Emzirme Tutumunu Değerlendirme Ölçeği (ETDÖ), Yeme Tutumu Testi (YTT) ve Beden Algısı Ölçeği (BAÖ) ile toplanmıştır.

Bulgular: Obez annelerin %14.2'sinin, obez olmayan annelerin ise %14.1'inin yeme tutum bozukluğuna yatkın olduğu saptanmıştır. ETDÖ puanları ile YTT puanları arasında obez (r=–0,284; p=0,002) ve obez olmayan kadınlarda (r=–0,371; p=0,000) istatistiksel olarak anlamlı zayıf negatif ilişki vardır. ETDÖ ile BAÖ puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki saptanmamıştır (p>0.05).

Sonuç: Obez ve obez olmayan kadınların emzirme tutumu ile beden algısı arasında ilişki bulunmazken hem obez hem de obez olmayan kadınların olumlu emzirme tutumları arttıkça yeme davranışı bozukluğuna yatkınlık da azalmaktadır. Bu bulgulara göre kadınlarda olumlu emzirme davranışlarının desteklenmesi önerilmektedir.

The Relationship of the Breastfeeding Attitude with Eating Attitude and Body Image of Obese and Non-Obese Mothers with Babies Hospitalized in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit

Abstract

Objective: The research was conducted to determine the relationship between obese and non-obese mothers' breastfeeding attitudes with eating attitudes and body perception.

Materials and Methods: The sample of the descriptive study consisted of 248 mothers (obese:120; non-obese=128). The data were collected with the Personal Information Form, Breastfeeding Attitudes of the Evaluation Scale (BAES), Eating Attitudes Test (EAT) and Body Perception Scale (BPS).

Results: It was determined that 14.2% of obese mothers and 14.1% of non-obese mothers were prone to eating attitude disorders. There was a weak statistically significant negative relationship between BAES and the EAT scores of obese (r=–0.284; p=0.002) and non-obese women (r=–0.371; p=0.000). A statistically significant relationship was not determined between the BAES and BPS scores (p>0.05).

Conclusion: While there was no relationship between breastfeeding attitude and body perception of obese and non-obese women, the tendency to eating attitude disorder decreased as obese and non-obese mothers’ positive breastfeeding attitudes increased. According to these findings, it is recommended to support a positive breastfeeding attitude in mothers.
