Resumo: | This study aimed to investigate the correspondence between the nutritional status of children aged 7-10 years and their mothers' perceptions of their children's weight. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 1,282 children. Weight and height were measured and classified according to International Obesity Taskforce (IOTF) criteria. Mothers' perceptions were assessed based on four possible conditions. The Kappa test (k) was used to evaluate the correspondence between nutritional status and mothers' perceptions and followed by regression analyses. The prevalence of overweight and underweight was 23.2% and 5.7% respectively. Half of mothers reported that their children were "underweight"; 61.2% said that their children were "normal"; 11.8% said that their children were "above normal weight"; and 1.1% referred to their offspring as "very much above normal weight". Highest and lowest correspondence between nutritional status and mother´s perception were: underweight and much above normal weight, respectively (k = 0.217, p < 0.000). Gender and ethnicity showed significant association with the mother's perception, even after controlling for other variables. Low correspondence levels between nutritional status and mother's perception were observed, especially among obese children. |

Utilizou-se o critério recomendado pela International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) para avaliação antropométrica e a percepção foi aferida por meio de pergunta objetiva. Teste de kappa foi usado para avaliação da correspondência. A percepção materna foi associada a fatores sócio-demográficos, utilizando-se modelo de regressão logística multinominal (α = 0,05). A prevalência de excesso de peso e baixo peso foi de 23,2% e 5,7%, respectivamente. Vinte e cinco vírgula oito por cento das mães disseram que seus filhos estão "abaixo do peso", 61,2% disseram que seus filhos estão "normais", 11,8% disseram que seus filhos estão "acima do peso" e 1,1% "muito acima do peso". Baixo peso e muito acima do peso obtiveram a maior e a menor correspondência, respectivamente (kappa = 0,217, p < 0,000). Gênero e cor da pele mostraram associação significativa com percepção materna, mesmo após ajuste por outras variáveis. Observou-se baixa correspondência entre classificação antropométrica e percepção materna, especialmente entre crianças classificadas como obesas.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2009-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4098Reports in Public Health; Vol. 25 No. 10 (2009): OctoberCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 25 n. 10 (2009): Outubro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4098/8333https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/4098/8334Molina, Maria del Carmen BisiFaria, Carolina Perim deMontero, PilarCade, Nagela Valadãoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:58Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/4098Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:04:44.211722Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true |
