The present study examined the relationships among Body Mass Index, eating attitudes, physical activity level, and food intake. The Eating Attitudes Test (Moroi & Nomoto, 2005), Physical Activity Level Questionnaire (developed by the authors), and Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQg Ver. 2.0) were administered to female adolescents (N=320). Also, subjects estimated their height and weight. To examine the relationships pattern among Body Mass Index, eating attitudes, physical activity level, and food intake, structural equation model analyses (Amos5.0) were executed. Clear results were obtained. Food intake component scores were directly influenced by eating attitudes, but almost unrelated to Body Mass Index. Eating attitudes were significantly determined by Body Mass Index.論文 (Article
