Introduction

Hubungan antara body dissatisfaction dengan perilaku makan pada mahasiswa di universitas ‘aisyiyah yogyakarta. Hubungan ketidakpuasan tubuh (body dissatisfaction) dan perilaku makan mahasiswa di Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta. Peningkatan risiko perilaku makan abnormal 2,5x.

Abstract

Body dissatisfaction disebut juga ketidakpuasan tubuh adalah evaluasi subjek individu yang negatif terhadap bentuk tubuh yang dimiliki seseorang. Individu yang beranggapan bahwa kondisi fisiknya tidak sesuai dengan konsep tubuh ideal seperti putih, tinggi, kurus, ada juga yang beranggapan bahwa tubuh ideal seperti berkulit gelap dan sedikit gemuk maka individu tersebut akan merasa kurang secara fisik. Perubahan perilaku makan dengan mengurangi makan dengan ekstrem, makan terlalu banyak, dan perasaan menderita atau keprihatinan tentang berat badan yang dimiliki merupakan pengaruh dari body dissatisfaction. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui adanya hubungan antara body dissatisfaction dengan perilaku makan pada mahasiswa di Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta. Rancangan penelitian ini adalah cross-sectional dan metode pengambilan sampel quota sampling, pengambilan data responden pada mahasiswa di Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta dilakukan menggunakan kuesioner Figure Rating Scale  dan Eatting Attitude test. Hasil penelitian diperoeh respnden sebanyak 105. Data kemudian dianalisis secara statistik dengan uji chi-square menggunakan STATA 14. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian menunjukan sebanyak 55% responden mengalami body image negatif atau body dissatisfaction sedangkan 45% lainnya mengalami body image positif, 48% responden mengalami perilaku makan normal dan 58% lainnya mengalami perilaku makan abnormal. Didapatkan OR sebesar 2,5 yang artinya individu yang mengalami body dissatisfaction  memiliki peluang 2,5 kali lebih besar mengalami perubahan perilaku makan. Terdapat hubungan antara body dissatisfaction dengan perilaku makan dengan hasil p-value 0,02 (<0,05). Body dissatisfaction berhubungan dengan perilaku makan pada mahasiswa di Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta.

Review

This study investigates the pertinent relationship between body dissatisfaction and eating behavior among students at Universitas ‘Aisyiyah Yogyakarta. The abstract effectively highlights the prevalence of body dissatisfaction, defining it as a negative self-evaluation influenced by perceived discrepancies between one's physical condition and an ideal body concept, which can manifest in diverse forms. The premise that such dissatisfaction can lead to detrimental eating behaviors, ranging from extreme restriction to overeating, underscores the importance and relevance of this research in understanding student well-being and potential risk factors for disordered eating patterns within this specific demographic. The clear objective to identify this relationship sets a focused goal for the investigation. The methodology employed a cross-sectional design with quota sampling to gather data from 105 student respondents. Data collection utilized standardized instruments: the Figure Rating Scale for body image and the Eating Attitude Test for eating behavior, providing a robust basis for measurement. Statistical analysis, performed using chi-square tests with STATA 14, revealed significant findings. A substantial portion of the sample, 55%, reported negative body image, while 58% exhibited abnormal eating behaviors. Crucially, the study determined an Odds Ratio (OR) of 2.5, indicating that students experiencing body dissatisfaction are 2.5 times more likely to exhibit abnormal eating behaviors, with a statistically significant p-value of 0.02. The findings unequivocally demonstrate a significant association between body dissatisfaction and eating behavior among the surveyed students. This outcome is highly relevant for public health and university-based interventions, suggesting a need for programs that promote positive body image and healthy eating habits among this vulnerable population. While the cross-sectional design effectively identifies correlation, it inherently limits the ability to infer causality; thus, it would be beneficial for future research to consider longitudinal studies to explore the temporal dynamics and potential causal pathways. Nevertheless, this study provides valuable empirical evidence affirming the link between these two crucial constructs in an Indonesian university context, offering foundational data for further investigation and targeted support strategies.
