About this app

Obesity is heterogeneous issue that is linked with associated factors, affecting social and economic development of the country . We have developed a tool for the quantification and curating of associated factors of obesity in Malaysia, as no proper valid tool is available till date to assess those factors associated with obesity with specification to multi-rationale , multi-ethnic and multi-subethnic population in Malaysia. Pubmed, Researchgate, BMC, and Google Scholar were used , such as obesity in Malaysia, associated factors with obesity, socio-economic factors obesity tools and surveys. A total of 2000 studies were selected, and associated factors of obesity in Asian and Asean countries across the world were listed for the face validation among experts in the Malaysia. The tool was constructed as per objective measures for the use among Malay obese attributes and for the comparison with normal healthy individual with respect to their metacognitive and empathy levels. The face validity was performed and questionnaire was distributed for its validity. The results of the validity for translated version and will be used to make this vital tool available in Malay language too for future use. Increasing ratio of obesity in Terengganu (>20%) is scientifically evidenced in Malaysia and to the best of our knowledge, there is still no proper tool available to measure the associated factors for interventional associated factors towards prevention and treatment of obesity. It is one of best tool, precisely addressing the variables for specific issues as per cited articles.

Objective

Development of an integrated tool for analyzing the social factors, metacognitive awareness scores and empathy of obese attributes.

Novelty

1 . Integrated innovative tool for globosity, validated for Malaysia.
2. Associated non-genetic factors with behavior by integrating metacognition and empathy.
3. First tool of its own type globally and locally .
