Factors contributing to weight misperception in obese children presenting for intervention.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To assess weight stigma, self-perception of weight status, and factors contributing to accurate self-perception of weight status in obese youth presenting for treatment at a hospital-based multidisciplinary weight management program. METHODS:Participants (N = 97; mean age = 8.56 +/- 1.66 years) used a figural rating scale to assess weight stigma and their current and ideal body type, and Sizing Me Up, a measure of obesity-specific health-related quality of life (HRQOL). RESULTS:The majority endorsed negative/stereotypical attributes toward an obese body type, chose an average or underweight figure as their ideal, and 39% misperceived their weight status. Older child age and greater HRQOL impairment were significant predictors (P < .01) of correct self-perception. CONCLUSION:Pediatricians may find that talking with the elementary school-aged patient and family about whether weight/size affects their day-to-day life will prove to be a salient and neutral opening to discussing the child's obesity and need for intervention.
