The Relationship Between Body Image and Mindful Eating with Nutritional Status in Adolescents at SMAN 8 Cirebon City
Main Article Content
Adolescence is a period of rapid physical, psychological, and social changes that may increase the risk of nutritional problems. Body image and mindful eating are internal factors that can influence adolescents’ nutritional status. Negative body image may encourage unhealthy eating behaviors, while mindful eating can help regulate eating habits through awareness of hunger, fullness, and the eating process. However, evidence on the relationship between body image, mindful eating, and adolescent nutritional status in Indonesia remains limited. This study aims to determine the relationship between body image, mindful eating, and nutritional status in adolescents at SMAN 8 Cirebon City. This research is an analytical observational study with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 11th-grade students at SMAN 8 Cirebon City. Statistical analyses included Spearman’s correlation test and logistic regression. Most respondents had a positive body image (83.3%), high mindful eating (55.1%), and normal nutritional status (52%). There was a significant relationship between body image and nutritional status (p-value < 0.001), while no significant relationship was found between mindful eating and nutritional status (p-value = 0.378). The regression results showed that body image was the most influential factor on nutritional status (OR = 4.64). Body image is significantly associated with nutritional status in adolescents and is the most influential factor in this study. In contrast, mindful eating did not show a significant relationship with nutritional status in adolescents.
