Amaç: Çocukluk çağı obezitesi günümüzde en yaygın halk sağlığı sorunu haline gelmiştir. Çocukluk obezitesi için obezojenik aile uygulamaları, çocuk obezitesi ve depresif belirtiler arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu araştırmayı, Ekim 2021 - Temmuz 2021 tarihleri arasında çocuk kliniğimize başvuran 7-15 yaş aralığında olan 96 çocuk ve onların ailesi üzerinde gerçekleştirdik. Çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden ebeveynler ve çocuklar, sosyodemografik verilerini, çocukların kilo ve boy bilgilerini, “Çocuklar İçin Depresyon Envanteri (CDI)” ve “Aile Beslenmesi ve Fiziksel Aktivite Tarama Aracı (FNPA)” içeren bir online anketi doldurdular.
Bulgular: Bu çalışma, çocukluk çağı obezitesi için daha yüksek riskli aile uygulamalarının, çocuklarda artan depresif belirtilerle ilişkili olduğunu bulmuştur (r=-0.279, p=0.006). Obezojenik aile ortamı, çocuklarda daha yüksek depresif puanlarla ilişkiliydi. Obezojenik aile ortamına sahip çocukların akıllı telefonlarda daha fazla zaman geçirdikleri de doğrulandı (p<0.001).
Sonuç: FNPA, obezojenik aile faktörlerini belirlemede kolay uygulanabilir bir araçtır. Obezojenik aile ortamına sahip çocuklarda depresif belirtiler ve akıllı telefon kullanımı konusunda dikkatli olabiliriz.

Objective: Childhood obesity has become a most common public health problem. We aimed to examine the relationship between obesogenic family practices for childhood obesity, children’s obesity, and depressive symptoms.
Material and Methods: In the present study, we conducted on 96 families and their children aged 7-15 who applied to our pediatric clinic from October 2021 to July 2021. Parents and children who agreed to participate in the study filled out an online questionnaire containing sociodemographic data, children's weight, and height information, "The Children's Depression Inventory (CDI)," and "Family Nutrition and Physical Activity Screening Tool (FNPA),."
Results: The present study found that the higher risky family practices for childhood obesity were associated with increased children's depressive symptoms (r=-0.279, p=0.006). Obesogenic family environment was correlated with higher depressive scores in the children. It was also confirmed that the children with obesogenic family environments spent more time on smartphones (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The FNPA is an easily applicable tool to determine obesogenic family factors. We might be careful about depressive symptoms and smartphone use in children with obesogenic family environments.
