Abstract

Obesity is a global health problem that has been increasing in recent decades and affects all ages. At the same time, chronic stress problems stemming from modern lifestyles are becoming more common. These two problems are closely related to each other, generating a vicious circle. A crucial stage in the life of the human being where significant changes are generated is university life. The objective of the present study is to identify the relationship between obesity and mental stress in first-time university students form the south of Sonora Mexico through the Stroop color test. 39 university students participated, which were grouped into two groups, one group of students who presented obesity (CON) and the other group without obesity (SIN). Obesity status was determined through the relative fat mass (RFM) equation and mental stress was determined by the square root of the Baevsky stress index (SI) through the recording of heart rate variability (VFC). The CON group presented higher values ​​of mental stress during all phases of the test in relation to the SIN group (p<0.001). It is concluded that obesity is a factor that is related to higher values ​​of stress in first-year university students, so it is necessary to include physical exercise and mental health programs to reduce this problem.
