The aim of this study was to examine the factors associated with extreme weight status and eating disorders (EDs) in young Korean women. A total of 808 women (mean age 22.3 \u00b1 3.4 years) participated, including 144 with UW [Body Mass Index (BMI) &lt; 18.5kg\/m2], 364 with NW, and 137 with OW or obesity (BMI \u2265 25kg\/m2), and 63 patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and 100 with bulimia nervosa (BN). Participants completed questionnaires regarding nutrients consumed, eating behaviors, health behaviors, body image, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms with face to face interviews. The associations between the status of participants and the data were analyzed with NW group as a reference. OW status was associated with overeating and with frequent eating. UW status was associated with less frequent overeating and with longer sleep duration. AN status was associated with less frequent consumption of alcohol. BN status was associated with a larger discrepancy between the ideal and current body shape. Both OW status and BN were associated with more obsessive-compulsive symptoms. The results suggested that certain dietary, health, and psychological factors are associated with extreme weight conditions and EDs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu14061315","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,21]],"date-time":"2022-03-21T21:48:42Z","timestamp":1647899322000},"page":"1315","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Factors Associated with Underweight, Overweight, and Eating Disorders in Young Korean Women: A Population-Based Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Youl-Ri","family":"Kim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuropsychiatry, Seoul Paik Hospital, Inje University, Mareunnaero 9, Jung-gu, Seoul 04551, Korea"},{"name":"Institute of Eating Disorders and Mental Health, Inje University, Mareunnaero 9, Jung-gu, Seoul 04551, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zhen","family":"An","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Eating Disorders and Mental Health, Inje University, Mareunnaero 9, Jung-gu, Seoul 04551, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kyung-Hee","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Duksung Women\u2019s University, 31 Samyang-ro, Dobong-gu, Seoul 01369, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Da-Mee","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Duksung Women\u2019s University, 31 Samyang-ro, Dobong-gu, Seoul 01369, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bo-In","family":"Hwang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Eating Disorders and Mental Health, Inje University, Mareunnaero 9, Jung-gu, Seoul 04551, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2744-4827","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirihae","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, Duksung Women\u2019s University, 31 Samyang-ro, Dobong-gu, Seoul 01369, Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"427","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(13)60937-X","article-title":"Maternal and child undernutrition and overweight in low-income and middle-income countries","volume":"382","author":"Black","year":"2013","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Prospective Studies Collaboration (2009).
