Abstract

Z magistrskim delom smo preučili odnos med socioekonomskim statusom in prekomerno telesno težo ter debelostjo med mladimi v Sloveniji. V okviru teoretičnega dela magistrskega dela smo predstavili izsledke domačih in tujih avtorjev, ki opredeljujejo odnos med socioekonomskim statusom in prekomerno telesno težo. Analiza empiričnega dela magistrskega dela je temeljila na sekundarni analizi podatkov reprezentativnega vzorca mladih v Sloveniji v starostni skupini 16-27 let. Za merjenje socioekonomskega statusa smo izbrali različne kazalnike, kot so izobrazba staršev, ki smo jo nadalje ločili na izobrazbo očeta in izobrazbo matere, osebni dohodek mladostnika in samo ocenjeni materialni položaj družine. Prav tako smo preučili, kateri dejavniki povečujejo oz. zmanjšujejo verjetnost za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost med mladimi v Sloveniji. Rezultati naše raziskave so pokazali, da združena starševska izobrazba ne zmanjšuje verjetnosti za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost, na drugi strani pa sta tako višja materina kot očetova izobrazba povezana z nižjimi obeti za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost. Nadalje se je izkazalo, da višji dohodek mladostnika povečuje verjetnost za prekomerno telesno težo in da višji samo ocenjeni materialni položaj družine ni povezan z nižjo verjetnostjo za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost. Ugotovili smo tudi, da pogostejše uživanje sadja in zelenjave ter pogostejša telesna dejavnost ne znižujeta verjetnosti za prekomerno telesno težo. Prav tako smo ugotovili, da je pogostejše uživanje alkohola povezano z višjo verjetnostjo za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost, kajenje cigaret pa ne. Ugotovili smo tudi, da je pogostejše gledanje televizije povezano z višjo verjetnostjo za prekomerno telesno težo in debelost med mladimi. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali tudi, da noben izmed preučenih dejavnikov ni mediator (pojasnjevalec) odnosa med socioekonomskim statusom in prekomerno telesno težo in debelostjo med mladimi v Sloveniji.

Secondary title:	ǂThe ǂrelationship between socioeconomic status, overweight and obesity among Slovenian youth
Secondary abstract:	In our thesis we examined the relationship between socioeconomic status, overweight and obesity among Slovenian youth. In theoretical part of the thesis we present a review of Slovenian and foreign literature in the field of socioeconomic status, overweight and obesity. In the empirical part we performed a secondary analysis of a representative sample of Slovenian youth aged between 16 and 27 years. Socioeconomic status was measured with several different indicators, including maternal education, paternal education, personal income of adolescent and self-assessed material position of the family. We also analysed several potential determinants which may impact the probability of overweight and obesity among youth in Slovenia. Results show that combined higher parental education does not lower the probability of overweight and obesity, while maternal and paternal education are both associated with lower probability of overweight and obesity. Furthermore, higher personal income of adolescents is associated with higher probability of overweight and obesity, while self-assessed material position of adolescent's family is not statistically significantly associated with overweight and obesity. In addition, higher fruit consumption, higher vegetable consumption, and more frequent physical activities do not lower the probability of overweight and obesity. Alcohol consumption is a statistical significant determinant that increases the likelihood of overweight and obesity, while smoking is not. Furthermore we found out that watching television increases the probability of overweight and obesity. Finally, the results also show that none of the analysed variables mediated (i.e. explained) the relationship between socioeconomic status, overweight and obesity among Slovenian youth.
