    研究目的 過去對於青少年肥胖的研究,大部分集中於心理影響行為模式。亦即個人從事不利健康的行為,常和個人缺乏正確的知識、態度等問題有關。例如:知識→態度→行為(Knowledge→Attitude→Behavior)模型,卻鮮少質疑模型的假設-人是根據自己的理性認知產生的行為。但這樣的假設卻忽略了個人認知除了受到個人因素的影響,同時也受到家庭權力關係、社會價值與規範等社會脈絡所造成影響往往是更重要的因子,但卻經常被忽視。本研究目的有二:(一)計算宜蘭縣某國中青少年過重(含肥胖)盛行率(二)透過問卷了解家中飲食主導者與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動相關知識、態度與行為之關係。 材料與方法 本研究所使用的資料主要來自宜蘭縣某國中健康中心每學期測量國中生身高、體重之定期資料,以行政院衛生署公佈之兒童與青少年肥胖定義,利用青少年的身體質量指數(BMI)計算宜蘭地區某國中青少年過重(含肥胖)之盛行率。並利用自行發展之學生問卷與家長問卷,隨機選擇羅東地區某國中98學年度300個學生。給予學生問卷填寫完後,由學生帶回家長問卷由家中最主要準備三餐的人填寫家長問卷。依變項為國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之知識是否具有正確知識的因子之二元因子;態度是否具有認同態度之二元因子;行為是否具有正面行為之二元因子。自變項包含受訪國中生基本資料;家中飲食主導者名稱;家中飲食主導者教育程度;家中飲食主導者職業型態;受訪國中生評估自我體態;家中主要準備三餐者評估受訪國中生體態;健康中心評估受訪國中生體態;受訪國中生認為家庭飲食主導者的體態;受訪國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之知識面向題目;受訪國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之態度面向題目;受訪國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之行為面向題目;家庭飲食主導者與受訪國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之知識面向題目;家庭飲食主導者與受訪國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之態度面向題目;家庭飲食主導者與受訪國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動之行為面向題目。 結果 第一部分發現2009年宜蘭地區某國中青少年過重(含肥胖)之盛行率女性為21.85%;男性為32.11%。 第二部份利用羅吉斯回歸分析,結果發現家中飲食主導者對肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正確知識,家中國中生對肥胖相關飲食與體能活動的正確知識是家庭飲食主導者不具正確知識的2.24倍(95%CI=1.29-3.88,P=0.0040)。 國中生每星期運動總時數大於(含)90分鐘對國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有認同態度之勝算比為2.09倍(95%CI=1.14-3.82,P=0.0173);國中生對肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正確知識在肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有認同態度之勝算比為3.88倍(95%CI=2.15-7.02,P<0.0001)。 低年級(七年級)相較於高年級(八、九年級)肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正面行為之勝算比為2.11倍(95%CI=1.01-4.43,P=0.0482),亦即國中生隨年級增加與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動反而較不具正面行為;國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正確知識對國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正面行為之勝算比為2.71倍(95%CI=1.35-5.46,P=0.0052);國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有認同態度對國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正面行為之勝算比為4.10倍(95%CI=2.05-8.20,P<0.0001);家中飲食主導者對國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正面行為對國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動具有正面行為之勝算比為5.02倍(95%CI=2.51-10.07,P<0.0001)。 結論 本研究針對宜蘭某國中的國中生,計算國中生過重(含肥胖)盛行率。利用羅吉斯回歸模型探討國中生肥胖相關飲食與體能活動的知識、態度與行為相關因子。研究結果發現國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動的知識與家庭飲食主導者的知識有相關;國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動的態度與國中生本身知識與每週運動的時數多寡有關;國中生與肥胖相關飲食與體能活動的行為與年級、國中生本身知識、態度及家庭飲食主導者的行為有關。意味國中生對肥胖相關飲食與體能活動需要考慮家庭飲食主導者之因素。建議未來進行青少年肥胖預防介入,需考慮家庭層次之家庭飲食主導者的因素。Objective: Despite a number of studies addressing obesity of adolescents, very few studies have been conducted to address factors associated the adolescents’ family diet leader. The aim of this research is to investigate the prevalence of overweight(including obesity)for adolescents in Yilan and the association between variables with obesity at family diet leader and adolescents by using logistic modeling approach with particular focus on the family contextual determinants including family diet leader’s knowledge,attitude and practice. Method: The prevalence of overweight(including obesity)in adolescent in Yilan by using Department Of Health criteria.BMI (Kg/M2) was caculated from weight and height measured in physical measurement.The study subjects(n=300)were enrolled by random sampling from a junior high school in Yilan.Adolescent’s characteristis(such as demography, physical activity,self bodyimage, family’s diet leader’s bodyimage,knowledge、attitude and practices of obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent…) and family’s diet leader’s characteristis(adolescent’s bodyimage,knowledge、attitude and practices of obesity in dietary and physical activity in family’s diet leader…)were collected via questionnaires. Result: The prevalence of overweight(including obesity)in adolescent in Yilan was 21.85% in female and 32.11% in male respectively.knowledge、attitude and practices of obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent. The odds ratio of having correct knowledge with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for family’s diet leader’s with correct knowledge versus without correct knowledge after adjusted is 2.24.(95%CI=1.29-3.88,P=0.0040). The odds ratio of having identity attitude with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for having more than 90 mins physical activity in a week in adolescent versus less than 90 mins after adjusted is 2.09(95%CI=1.14-3.82,P=0.0173).The odds ratio of having identity attitude with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for adolescent’s with correct knowledge versus without correct knowledge after adjusted is 3.88.(95%CI=2.15-7.02,P<0.0001). The odds ratio of having positive behavior with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for Grade 7 in adolescent versus Grade 8 and 9 after adjusted is 2.11(95%CI=1.01-4.43,P=0.0482).The odds ratio of having positive behavior with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for adolescent’s with correct knowledge versus without correct knowledge after adjusted is 2.71(95%CI=1.35-5.46,P=0.0052) . The odds ratio of having positive behavior with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for adolescent’s with identity attitude versus without identity attitude after adjusted is 4.10(95%CI=2.05-8.20,P<0.0001) . The odds ratio of having positive behavior with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescent for family’s diet leader’s with positive behavior versus without positive behavior after adjusted is 5.02(95%CI=2.51-10.07,P<0.0001). Conclusion: By using multiple logistic regression adjusting adolescents demography,family diet leader’s demography, physical activity,self bodyimage and so on, we found knowledge and behavior of family diet leader is relative to knowledge and behavior with obesity in dietary and physical activity in adolescents. These results implied that preventive programs beyond individual approaches should be implemented to weight control. And the family diet leader could be appropriate educational targets for health promotion

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
