This descriptive study of 314 students was conducted to determine whether there were any relationships of their demographic variables with a health-promoting lifestyle profile.
The Japanese version of the Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP-II) questionnaire was used to investigate students' lifestyles. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and multiple comparison procedures using the Scheffe test were conducted to identify significant differences among university year (first, second, etc.) groups. The t-test independent participants was utilized to compare the HPLP-II scores according to gender and living with family (yes/no). Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the effects of various demographics on the overall HPLP-II score and the six health-promoting lifestyle subscales.
The whole cohort of participants had an overall HPLP-II mean score of 2.50 (SD = 0.29), with the highest mean score being for interpersonal relations (3.05 ± 0.44), and the lowest mean score being for health responsibility (2.01 ± 0.53). The overall HPLP-II score of the students during the first university year was 2.59 (SD = 0.29), and this score progressively declined in their second year (2.49 ± 0.29), third year (2.47 ± 0.28), and fourth year (2.45 ± 0.30). Female students practiced significantly better health responsibility, interpersonal relations, and nutrition than males, and male students practiced significantly better physical activity than females. The students who were living with family had significantly higher nutrition scores than those not living with family.
These significant findings linking the HPLP-II, university year level, and living with family (yes/no) in university students will enable healthcare providers to develop interventions to assist students in improving their health lifestyles in the university environment and will help in devising suitable education programs.
本研究对 314 名学生进行了描述性研究，以确定他们的人口统计学变量与健康促进生活方式之间是否存在关系。
采用日本健康促进生活方式量表 II（HPLP-II）问卷对学生的生活方式进行调查。采用单因素方差分析（ANOVA）和 Scheffe 检验多重比较程序，以确定大学年级（一年级、二年级等）组之间的显著差异。采用独立样本 t 检验比较不同性别和与家人同住（是/否）的 HPLP-II 评分。采用多元回归分析分析各种人口统计学变量对总体 HPLP-II 评分和六个健康促进生活方式子量表的影响。
全体参与者的 HPLP-II 总分平均为 2.50（SD=0.29），其中人际关系的平均分最高（3.05±0.44），健康责任的平均分最低（2.01±0.53）。大学一年级学生的 HPLP-II 总分平均为 2.59（SD=0.29），二年级（2.49±0.29）、三年级（2.47±0.28）和四年级（2.45±0.30）逐年下降。女生在健康责任、人际关系和营养方面的实践明显优于男生，而男生在身体活动方面的实践明显优于女生。与家人同住的学生在营养方面的得分明显高于不与家人同住的学生。
这些与 HPLP-II、大学年级水平以及在大学期间是否与家人同住（是/否）有关的显著发现，将使医疗保健提供者能够制定干预措施，帮助学生在大学环境中改善他们的健康生活方式，并有助于制定合适的教育计划。
