Description

The mental health of younger generations has become a matter of great social concern, and the problem has been also discussed in relation to eating habits. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the life style focusing on eating habits and the scores of UPI (University Personality Inventory) scale which measure the degree of mental health, of junior and high school students and of university students by a questionnaire survey.<BR>There were no significant differences in the mean scores of each UPI scale between male and female students, except for physical complaint items. Significant relationships between the scores of UPI and their daily lives and eating habits were more found in male junior and high school students and female university students. Stress, health and sleeping patterns were correlated with the UPI scores in junior and high school students as well as university students. The high scores of UPI were more observed among the students of the low intake frequencies of meat, milk, dairy products and vegetables.
