In this exploratory and descriptive study, data are drawn from a sample of 1,864 Bank of America retirees collected in 1987 to investigate correlations among healthy habits, age, gender, and education. Findings include: 1) Health habits are strongly and positively associated with each other and negatively associated with unhealthy habits. 2) Age is statistically significant and positively associated with fiber, fat consumption, and lack of exercise, but negatively associated with cigarette use. 3) Women are more likely than men to smoke, use seat belts, and eat foods high in fiber. Men are more likely than women to exercise and drink excessively. 4) Education is statistically significant and positively associated only with fiber in the diet and no other habit. 5) Fiber consumption emerges as the healthy habit most consistently associated with all other habits.
在这项探索性描述性研究中，数据取自1987年收集的1864名美国银行退休人员样本，以调查健康习惯、年龄、性别和教育之间的相关性。研究结果包括：1）健康习惯之间呈强正相关，与不健康习惯呈负相关。2）年龄在统计学上具有显著意义，与纤维、脂肪摄入量和缺乏运动呈正相关，但与吸烟呈负相关。3）女性比男性更有可能吸烟、使用安全带和食用高纤维食物。男性比女性更有可能运动和过度饮酒。4）教育在统计学上具有显著意义，仅与饮食中的纤维摄入呈正相关，与其他习惯无关。5）纤维摄入是与所有其他习惯最一致相关的健康习惯。
