The shift in diet and physical activity in modern society has resulted in obesity becoming a public health problem. This problem will be a burden to the state if it is not addressed early on. This study aims to examine and find models of obesity determinants based on consumption, physical activity, lifestyle, social and environmental factors. The sample was randomly selected for elementary school children in the city of Denpasar. The collected data were analyzed by using a structural equation model. Of the 375 elementary school children in the city of Denpasar, it is known that 35.5% are overweight, even one-third of them have entered the obesity stage. Consumption factors have the dominant contribution in increasing the risk of obesity. In the next order, other factors emerged: social factors; lifestyle; physical activity; followed by environmental factors. As a follow-up plan from the results of this study, a Digital-Based Nutrition Care Process for Obese Children will be designed which can later be disseminated on all mass line platforms as an intervention plan. Although the application is designed to be disseminated through the mass line platform, the role of the teacher is still needed to monitor the progress of this program.

Health Promotion Behavior

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the influence of awareness regarding particulate matter, perceived respiratory symptoms, and physical activities on health promotion behavior in elementary school children. Methods: Data were collected from 639 4th~6th grades students from 8 elementary schools in Busan and analyzed using independent t-test and ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple regression analysis. Results: The average for awareness regarding particulate matter was 29.84±5.63, for perceived respiratory symptoms, 0.66±0.95, and for health promotion behavior, 7.85±1.76. The mean amount of time the students spent in sleeping or sitting on an easy chair and/or activity while sitting were 10.71±3.04 and 6.60±2.84 hours a day. Factors influencing health promotion behavior in elementary school children were being a girl (β=.09, <i>p</i>=.015), in 4th grade (β=-.09, <i>p</i>=.025), residence in Busanjingu (β=-.10, <i>p</i>=.005), residence in Bukgu (β=-.12, <i>p</i>=.001), more than 10 years residence period (β=-.09, <i>p</i>=.020) and awareness regarding particulate matter (β=.42, <i>p</i><.001). The explanation power of these variables was 23% (F=22.21, <i>p</i><.001). Conclusion: It is recommended that for health education programs, gender, grade, length of residence and area’s air pollution level be considered and education program including guideline for particulate matter be provided continuously to elementary students to increase their level of awareness regarding particulate matter and proper physical activity.

Hearing Problems

The teachers of 2231 elementary school children were asked to identify those with known or suspected hearing problems. Following screening, the data were compared. Teachers identified 5% of the children as hearing-impaired, while screening identified only 3%. There was agreement between the two procedures on 1%. Subsequent to the teacher interviews, rescreening and tympanometry were conducted. These procedures indicated that teacher screening and tympanometry were in agreement on 2% of the total sample or 50% of the hearing-loss group. It was concluded that teachers could supplement audiometry, particularly when otoscopy and typanometry are not available.
