The cross sectional survey as the descriptive epidemiological method was carried out in children under 5 years and mother having children under 5 years in the Tapan and Thai an commune, Ha giang province, My thuan commune, Nam dinh province and Thach ha commune, Ha tinh province. The results have shown that the malnutrition rate is 52%, undersize:61,8% and thin: 4%. The highest malnutrition rates and thins and undersize found in children with ages of 13-18 months. The malnutrition rate was different from one to another. The risks of the malnutrition were: mother have not passed the examination of the primary school; mother with more than 2 children and mother over 35 age; the incorrect evaluation of the nutrition status of children and the children usually suffer the diseases or are suffering the diarrhea or respiratory disease.

Eating disorders are often underdiagnosed. Orthorexia nervosa (ON), a new type of eating disorder, is defined as excessive preoccupation with healthy eating, causing significant nutritional deficiencies and social and personal impairments. The ORTO-15 is a 15-item instrument widely used to evaluate orthorexia nervosa. It was developed by Donini et al (2005) in Italian and has been translated and adapted in other languages. In this study, the validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of ORTO-15 were assessed. The Indonesian version of the instrument was then reviewed by experts after translation. The back-translation was assessed for consistency with the original instrument. The instrument was then statistically-tested for validity and reliability on 50 randomly selected subjects. The subjects were balanced in gender and the mean age was 19.4 + 0.8 years. The reliability was tested using Cronbach’s alpha. The validity was tested using Pearson's product-moment correlation and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA). The Pearson product moment verified good validity for the instrument (r = 0.369 – 0.881). CFA analyses confirmed good communalities (extraction > 0.5) and revealed three components construct (cumulative 73.5%). Reliability test confirmed that the instrument had good reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.915). The ORTO-15 Indonesian version is a valid and reliable instrument for the assessment of ON.

A retrospective 46 stunting and 47 children without stunting when they were at 18-30 months in 1994 and who were at 7-8 ages in 2000 at a commune of Hatay province was carried out to evaluate the relation between the perception ability and stimulate environment of families. The results have shown that the perception score of children with stunting was lower 7 than this of children without stunting and practical score of children with stunting was lower 5 than this of children without stunting. The perception level of pupil related with the stimulate environment of families

We have studied about weight in 199,770 children aged 1-60 months in 100% the localities of Hanoi, there are 59,093 children suffer from malnutrition (29.58%). Malnutrition rates of rural children (34.77%) are significantly higher than those of urban children (21.85%). Age groups 12-57 months suffer from malnutrition the more the higher (23.3-40.5%). Malnutrition rates is Socson district are very high (59.28%). On the contrary in Hoankiem district there are only 14.5% malnutrition

PURPOSE: The descriptive study was designed to examine the relationship of eating attitudes to the internalization of sociocultural attitudes, body shape satisfaction, anger and anger expression in college women. METHOD: 247 women were recruited from one college located in Seoul, Korea. The instruments used were the Internalization subscale of SATAQ-3R, BSQ for body shape satisfaction, Spielberger's state trait anger expression inventory-Korean version for anger and anger expression, and the Eating Attitude Test(EAT-26) for eating attitudes. RESULTS: The score of EAT significantly correlated with internalization, state anger, body shape satisfaction, and anger expression except trait anger. The significant predictors of eating attitudes in college women were body shape satisfaction and anger expression, explaining 55% of the variance in eating attitudes. CONCLUSION: This study showed that body shape satisfaction is an important predictor for an eating disorder. Therefore, various programs for cognitive changes correcting the understanding about body and weight need to be developed in the future.

We selected 93 primary school children aged 7-8 years old living in a rural commune in which 46 children were classified as stunting and 47 children were not stunting during their period of under 5 years old. The anthropometric data and other socio-economic data of children and their family in two groups were collected. The results show that there is a catch-up growth in group of children with early stunting. However, their mean height was shorter than group without early stunting. HAZbefore is determinant factor for HAZ present. We found also that the birth weight is a positive factor that influences on both HAZ in two points of observation (in period of under 5 and in present time of study). We concluded that early stunting has the negative impact on physical growth in later age. Prevention of early stunting is very important action toward long-term nutritional benefits of children.

This study was performed in order to compare the differences in dietary self-efficacy and eating behaviors as well as the relationship of weight control attitudes according to eating disorder perception and obesity index for high school girls majoring in dance. Almost half (45.5%) of the subjects perceived eating disorders, and the rate of underweight group was 45.7%. Forty-four percent of the group that perceived eating disorders were in modern dance, while 55.0% of the group that did not perceived eating disorders were in Korean dance (P <0.05). For the obesity index, a similar rate was shown between the different types of dance for the underweight group, but in the normal group, 54.5% were in Korean dance (P <0.05). Most (82.0%) of the group that perceived eating disorders had fears on obesity, while only 53.3% of the non-perceiving group had fears on obesity (P <0.01). Over half (58.3%) of the underweight group had fears on obesity, while 77.2% of the normal group showed fear in that (P <0.05). For necessity of weight loss to do dance performances, 25.0% of the underweight group and 57.9% of the normal group need that (P <0.05). Most of the group that perceived eating disorders (92.0%) answered that they had experience in very low calorie diets, while only 40.0% of the non-perceiving group had experience (P <0.001). For necessity of calorie education, 42.0% of the group that perceived eating disorders and only 20.0% of the non-perceiving group answered is needed (P <0.05). For eating behavior , the group that perceived eating disorders had lower total scores compared to the non-perceiving group (P <0.001), The group that perceived eating disorders showed lower scores for restraint eating (P <0.01) and emotional factors (P <0.001) except by external eating. This study showed that high school girls majoring in dance have high interest in weight control and problems with wrongful body images and eating behaviors, as well as need for calorie education were suggested. Thus, it is necessary to develop and execute a proper weight control education program for the subjects.
