The purpose of this study was to explore relations and compare anthropometric characteristics, weight control and appearance management behavior by eating disorder risk in high school female students. A total 599 female students of high school were recruited and a questionnaire-based survey was conducted. Overall points of eating disorder were 17.45 (full score 78) and high risk group in eating disorder was 38.4% of a total. The points of physical characteristics including body weight, obesity index and difference between ideal and actual body weight in high risk group were higher than normal group. Obesity index was normal weight (58.9%), overweight (22.2%) and underweight students (18.9%) in order, whereas perception of body shape was 55.7% in fat, 32.6% in normal and 11.2% in thin. Most of subjects had a concern for body weight control (87.5%) and tried to lose body weight (79.1%). Whereas satisfaction after weight control (20.9%) was lower. A total score of concern for appearance was 3.76(full score 5), the score in high risk group was higher than normal group. A total score of appearance management behavior was 2.81 (full score 5). The scores of appearance management behavior and five factors in high risk group were higher. There was positive relationship between eating disorder and appearance management behavior(r=0.468). As discussed above, eating disorder risk group had a distinct tendency more than normal group. For prevention of eating disorder, proper perception of body image and body weight control education is more necessary for female students of high school.
