Are Obese Mothers of Children Aged 1-6 Years Evening-Typed?
Original language description
Obesity is a serious problem that is growing in developed countries and many children as short-sleepers have been reported to be obese. However, no studies have been conducted on the relationship between BMI shown by mothers of children aged 1-6 years and their own circadian typology. This study aims to clarify this relationship in Japanese mothers. An integrated questionnaire on diurnal rhythms (including the Diurnal Type Scale constructed by Torsval & ?kerstedt), sleep habits, meal habits, lighting conditions at night, weight and height was administered to mothers and their children aged 1-6 years. Sixty-two percent of 863 mothers answered the questionnaire for themselves and their children. All the obese mothers (BMI of 28 or more) had MEQ scores ofless than 18 and were more evening-typed than non-obese mothers (BMI of less than 28) (p=0.02). A higher ratio of obese mothers watched TV after 11:00 p.m. (p=0.049) and used fluorescent lights while watching TV after 11:00 p.m. (p=0.023
