Health promotion behaviours are considered as preventives of non-communicable diseases and key determinants of maintaining and improving the health status.
This study aimed to investigate and identify effective factors on health-promoting behaviours based on Pender model in women of reproductive age from February to April 2017, in Savojbolagh, Iran.
This cross-sectional study is conducted on 240 women aged between 15 to 49 years in Savojbolagh, Iran, in 2017. The questionnaire consisted of several items, including socio-demographic characteristics, health-promoting lifestyle profile-II (HPLP-II), self-efficacy, social support and constructs of Pender's health promotion model. SPSS-18 software has been applied for statistical analysis.
The mean age of the women was 31.10 ± 7.29 years. Total HPLP-II score was 106.64 ± 11.93. The highest and the lowest mean in the subscales were belonged to nutrition and physical activity, respectively. According to the bivariate analysis, the total HPLP-II score is significantly related to prior health-related behaviour (p = 0.000). There was a statistically significant relationship between stress management and the variables including perceived benefits, perceived barriers, prior health-related behaviour, situational influences, commitment to a plan of action (p < 0.05). Also, health responsibility had a statistically significant relationship with self-efficacy (p < 0.05).
According to our results, it can be inferred that there is a problem with the HPBs of women. Considering that health-promoting behaviours like physical activity had a low score, it is a necessity to plan and perform interventions for improving health promotion behaviours.
健康促进行为被视为非传染性疾病的预防措施以及维持和改善健康状况的关键决定因素。
本研究旨在基于彭德模型，于2017年2月至4月在伊朗萨沃贾博拉格调查并确定影响育龄妇女健康促进行为的有效因素。
2017年，在伊朗萨沃贾博拉格对240名年龄在15至49岁之间的女性进行了这项横断面研究。问卷包括几个项目，包括社会人口学特征、健康促进生活方式量表-II（HPLP-II）、自我效能感、社会支持以及彭德健康促进模型的构成要素。使用SPSS-18软件进行统计分析。
这些女性的平均年龄为31.10±7.29岁。HPLP-II总分是106.64±11.93。各子量表中平均分最高和最低的分别是营养和身体活动。根据双变量分析，HPLP-II总分与先前的健康相关行为显著相关（p = ０.０００）。压力管理与包括感知利益、感知障碍、先前的健康相关行为、情境影响、对行动计划的承诺等变量之间存在统计学显著关系（p < ０.０５）。此外，健康责任与自我效能感之间存在统计学显著关系（p < ０.０５）。
根据我们的研究结果，可以推断出女性的健康促进行为存在问题。鉴于身体活动等健康促进行为得分较低，有必要规划并实施干预措施以改善健康促进行为。
