The effects of body mass index (BMI) on the acceptance and future of profession

Öz

Objective: Obesity is an increase in the proportion of body fat to whole body. Body Mass Index (BMI) is used to classify obesity on the basis of height and weight. BMI is important for some occupations and higher education programs such as   first and emergency aid. For this reason, this study was conducted to evaluate the body mass index of the 95 students who study in the first and emergency aid program. For this purpose initially questionnaire form was used, the result was analysed by one way ANOVA and student t-test.

Results: 95 students participated in our study (female: 58, male: 37). The students were 168.89±7.14 cm in height, 62.13±10.36 kg in weight, and 22.08±4.56 kg/m2 body mass index in average. While the average BMI of male was 22.41±2.91 kg / m2, the mean BMI of female was 21.40±2.74 kg / m2. The difference between females and males were statistically insignificant (p=0.09). However, Males had higher BMI than female. While the body mass index of the students who study in the daily education was 22.21±2.64 kg / m2, BMI of students who study in the second education was found as 21.29±3.03 kg / m2. The difference between the daily and evening education students were statistically insignificant (p=0.116). Average of BMI of daily students was higher than the evening education. 14.73% of the population's BMI was considered overweight (25-29.9)

Conclusion: According to the results of the research, it has been found that a large proportion of the students have maintained the body mass index during the last nine months after acceptance of program. The importance of protecting the body mass index at the normal level for students who cannot protect the body mass index should be emphasized and awareness should be created in this regard.
