The effect of School Milk Program for Junior & Senior High School Students on Milk Consumption

Tobit 모형을 이용한 중·고등학교 우유급식이 우유소비에 미치는 효과 분석

  • Published : 2007.09.30

Abstract

Today’s teenagers were significantly deficient of calcium intakes, taking on the average only 55.4 percents of the recommended. Milk was the major source of calcium intakes, and therefore the school milk program need to be readdressed to remedy this problem. However, school milk program(SMP) was said to be simply the substitute for milk at home, so that no more than a minimal effect on total milk consumption be warranted. This Study aimed to find out whether or not the school milk program was an effective measure to increase teenager’s milk consumption and explored the relation between school milk and total milk consumption for 1,079 junior and senior high school students who were surveyed by questionnaire from 15th June to 15th July in 2006. A Tobit model was used for the statistical analysis. In this model, we first regressed milk consumption on 5 variables i.e. degree of satisfaction, participation in SMP, sex, school, region. But the variable region was not significant statistically. Then we regressed on 4 variables except for region. The results showed 4 variables were all significant and the marginal effect of variable ‘participation in SMP’ was 1.3. Especially, the marginal effect 1.3 means that the students participating in the school milk program consumed 1.3cups more than the non-participants, which indicated the effectiveness of school milk program to improve the calcium deficiency program of teenagers.

우리나라 청소년층인 중${\cdot}$고등학생($13{\sim}19$세)의 칼슘 섭취량은 권장량 대비 55.4%로 심각하게 부족한 것으로 조사되었다. 이러한 측면에서 학교우유급식은 청소년층의 칼슘섭취량을 증가시킬 수 있는 유력한 수단으로 활용되고 있으나 일부에서는 학교우유급식이 전체 우유섭취량 증대보다는 가정소비 우유의 대체로 전체 청소년층의 우유소비 증가에는 효과가 없다는 견해가 있다. 이 연구의 목적은 학교우유급식이 중·고등학생들의 우유소비를 증가시키기 위한 효과적인 수단인지 여부를 밝혀내는데 있다. 이를 위해서 우유급식을 실시하는 중${\cdot}$고등학교에 재학하는 학생 1,079명을 대상으로 2006년 6월 15일부터 7월 15일 까지 1개월간 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 통계분석에는 Tobit 모형을 이용하였다. 분석결과 학교우유급식이 학생들의 우유음용에 대한 건전한 습관을 형성하고 우유급식을 하지 않는 학생보다 우유소비량이 더 많으며 그 차이 또한 학교에서 급식으로 섭취하는 양 이상인 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 중${\cdot}$고등학교 우유급식의 확대는 청소년층의 칼슘섭취량을 증가시킬 수 있는 효과적인 수단임을 알 수 있었다.
