Abstract
This study was conducted by critical review analyzing literatures of theories focused on changes of health behaviors. 5 theories-TRA, HBM, Self-Efficacy, Social Support, and Locus of Control-were selected among many theories of health behaviors. Theories were summarized, and models and concepts of theories were described.
The results of this study were follows ;
1. Health behaviors could be classified into preventive behaviors and curative behaviors.
2. Most concern of previous studies in this field was on health behavior execution itself or on its outcome.
3. The focus of previous studies was on initiation, maintenance, facilitation, and change of preventive and curative behaviors.
4. Factors affecting on health behaviors were demographic factors as exogenous variables and intrapsychic and extrapsychic factors as endogenous variables.
5. Previous studies tested predictability and explicability of these theories on health behaviors and identified factors affecting health behaviors most.
6. Concept of TRA, Self-Efficacy, and Social Support had higher explicability on health behaviors than concepts of HBM and Locus of Control.
From results of this study, we suggested the direction and considerations for further nursing studies related with these theories. And we derived testable propositions from relationship between concepts and each others.
