Abstract: Objectives To investigate the relationship between feeding behavior and overweight/obesity among infants and young children,and to provide reference for the development of overweight / obesity prevention measures among infants and young children. Methods Self-fill questionnaire was used to investigate the feeding behaviors of 176 infants and young children aged 0~3 years old in Niujie community,Beijing.BMI was calculated,and all the subjects were divided into normal weight,overweight and obese groups according to BMI.Chi-square test was performed to investigate the differences of feeding behavior between caregivers from weight groups. Results Classification by BMI calculation,overweight children accounted for 12.5%,obese children accounted for 8.5% of infant and young children aged 0~3 years old in Niujie community,Beijing.Significant differences in the forced feeding behavior were found between different weight groups (P<0.01). Conclusions The forced feeding behavior among infant and young children is closely related to overweight/obesity,which can reduce the risk of overweight/obesity of children by intervening the forced feeding behavior.

摘要： 目的 探讨婴幼儿家庭喂养行为与婴幼儿超重/肥胖间的关系,为婴幼儿超重/肥胖防治措施的制订提供参考依据。方法 采用喂养人自填问卷,对北京市牛街社区176名0~3岁婴幼儿家庭主要喂养人的喂养行为进行调查,同时,测量儿童的身高、体重,并计算体质指数(BMI);依据 BMI将儿童分为正常体重、超重/肥胖组。将调查对象按照体重分为不同组别(正常体重、超重/肥胖组),运用χ²检验分析比较不同体重组间主要喂养人喂养行为的差异。结果 经BMI计算分类,北京市牛街社区婴幼儿超重儿童占12.5%,肥胖儿童占8.5%。分析结果显示,喂养人喂养行为中强迫型喂养行为在不同体重组(正常、超重/肥胖组)间差异具有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论 婴幼儿家庭喂养行为中强迫型喂养行为与超重/肥胖密切相关,通过干预家庭强迫型喂养行为可降低婴幼儿超重/肥胖的风险。
