“…These results are in accordance with a recent survey performed in Gyeonggi province, the most populous province in Korea, that identified over 60% of middle school students as eating during night time more than once a week [ 11 ]. Other studies in Korea indicated that night eating and snacking were more frequent in younger adults [ 20 21 ]. These results indicate that night eating predominantly affects younger populations.…”

“…The findings presented in this study can be used as a foundation for future research on the topic of night eating. This research area seems to be constantly growing worldwide as well as in recent years in South Korea, as indicated by the publication of studies that explored night eating and snacking, especially those focused on university students [ 11 16 17 19 20 ]. Our results seem to indicate the importance of incorporating a temporal dimension to diet planning and weight control programs, especially those targeted at adolescent girls.…”

“…In particular, food intake during night time has been associated with lower diet quality in children [ 10 ], adolescents [ 11 ], and adults [ 12 ] as well as a higher Body Mass Index (BMI) and greater likelihood of being obese [ 13 14 ]. In both South Korea and the United States, night eating has shown a greater prevalence among young adults [ 15 16 17 ], and most studies on this topic in South Korea have focused on this population [ 18 19 20 ]. To our knowledge, only one study to date has analysed the phenomenon of night eating in adolescents.…”

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVESA growing body of research has indicated that night eating could be associated with poor diet quality and negative health outcomes. This study examined the nutritional aspects of night eating, its related factors, and the association between night eating and body weight among Korean adolescents.SUBJECTS/METHODSThis study analysed the data from a one day 24-hour dietary recall as well as a demographic survey of 1,738 Korean adolescents aged 12 to 18-years-old obtained from the 2010-2012 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. 'Night eating' was defined as consuming 25% or more of one's daily energy intake between 21:00 and 06:00. Subjects complying with the preceding condition were classified as 'night eaters', whereas the rest were considered 'non-night eaters'. Logistic regression analysis examined factors related to night eating. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between night eating and BMI z-scores, whereas multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between night eating and weight status.RESULTSAbout 21% of Korean adolescents appeared to be night eaters. Night eaters showed increased breakfast skipping (P = 0.001), higher energy intake from snacks (P < 0.001), greater proportion of energy intake from fat (P = 0.029), and lower Dietary Diversity Scores (P = 0.008) than non-night eaters. Male adolescents presented 1.9 times higher odds of being night eaters than females. Adolescents whose both parents were night eaters were 4.4 times as likely to be night eaters as those whose neither parents were. Female adolescents showed a significant relationship between night eating and BMI z-scores (β = 0.28, P = 0.004). However, night eating did not increase odds of being overweight or obese in adolescents.CONCLUSIONSNight eating in Korean adolescents was related to undesirable dietary behaviours and low diet quality in general as well as higher BMI z-scores in females. Male gender and parental night eating appeared to be the factors that significantly increased odds of night eating. These results suggest that night eating should be considered when designing nutrition education or intervention programs targeting adolescents.

“…This particular form of the late-meal pattern is present more frequently in young adults and students (152,153) and refers to the chronological type, i.e. the individual preferences for sleep time and eating behaviour; morning or evening type (154) .…”

The relationship between lifestyle components and dietary patterns

We conducted a narrative review on the interaction between dietary patterns with demographic and lifestyle variables in relation to health status assessment. The food pattern has the advantage of taking into account the correlations that may exist between foods or groups of foods, but also between nutrients. It is an alternative and complementary approach in analysing the relationship between nutrition and the risk of chronic diseases. For the determination of dietary patterns one can use indices/scores that evaluate the conformity of the diet with the nutrition guidelines or the established patterns (a priori approach). The methods more commonly used are based on exploratory data (a posteriori): cluster analysis and factor analysis. Dietary patterns may vary according to sex, socio-economic status, ethnicity, culture and other factors, but more, they may vary depending on different associations between these factors. The dietary pattern exerts its effects on health in a synergistic way or even in conjunction with other lifestyle factors, and we can therefore refer to a ‘pattern of lifestyle’.

“…This means unhealthy late-night meals may be especially detrimental for diet-related health. A study of Korean college students found that living in dormitories was associated with significantly increased calorie intake at night compared to living at home, especially from fried chicken and flour-based foods [ 9 ]. However, little research has analyzed late-night eating at American colleges.…”

You can’t “nudge” nuggets: An investigation of college late-night dining with behavioral economics interventions

2018

A mixed-methods approach was used to evaluate and improve the “late-night dining” options in a university dining hall. Surveys assessed student desires for late-night offerings, and evaluated students’ habits and motivations during late-night dining. Two interventions were implemented to see if students could be “nudged” into different choice patterns. In the first, a “veggie-heavy” entrée was added at the beginning of the entrée line, so that students would substitute an entrée containing vegetables for the alternatives. In the second, a snack-food bar was set up to cater to students who didn’t want to stand in the long entrée line, and preferred a snack. Data on food choice was collected during the interventions. Survey responses showed significant differences in the reasons females and males utilized late-night dining (p<0.001). We also found that students at late-night dining had a lower emphasis on health than the general student population. Even students at late-night who reported being health-conscious showed no difference in food selections from students who said health was not important (p = 0.883). Veggie-heavy entrées had mild success in increasing vegetable selection. However, veggie-heavy entrées were largely ignored when the other option was chicken nuggets. The snack bar was very popular. Entrée placement and convenience lines may have mild impacts on food selection in a late-night dining environment.
