In order to identify the health promoting behavior and its related factors for high school students a survey was performed from 4th to 8th of December 2000. Population were selected by stratified random sampling method and total 355 students replied to the self-administered questionnaire survey. Data analysis was done by descriptive statistics t-test ANOVA, Pearson’s Correlation stepwise multiple regression
The results were as follows
1. The average score of health promoting behavior practices was 2.23(SD=.41) points by the 4 point scale, which was lower than that of adults. In the subcategories the highest degree of performance was self-actualization (mean=2.68 SD=.68) and the lowest degree was health responsibilty(mean=1.33 SD=.41) 2. According to gender(t=2.70 P=.00) school type (t=2.53 p=.01)father’s educational level (f=4.16 p=.00) sleeping hours (F=3.80 p=.02) and number of hours at school (F=4.44 ,p=.01) there were a statistically significant differences in modifying factors of health promoting behavior 3. Health promoting behavior showed significant positive correlations with self-efficacy(γ=.461 p=.000) internal health locus of control (γ=.284 p=.000) perceived health status(γ-163. p=.002) 4. The combination of self-efficacy internal health locus of control school type and gender explained 30% of the variance on health promoting behavior. Therefore the finding of research can serve as the basis for developing health promoting programs which enhance self-efficacy and performed in school and community.
