The need to cope with life concerns may drive an individual to resort to high-risk behaviours. This study aimed to determine the relationship between health concerns and high-risk behaviours.
A cross-sectional study.
We sampled 926 Medical Sciences' students from the North of Iran from September-December 2017 using the stratified sampling method.
The most and less common high-risk behaviour was physical inactivity (97.5%) and high-risk sexual behaviour (15.7%), respectively. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, participants' concerns about human sexuality (AOR: 1.39; CI: 1.22, 1.57), injury prevention and control (AOR: 1.12; CI: 1.01, 1.20), nutrition (AOR: 1.13; CI: 1.02, 1.26) and emotional health (AOR: 1.08; CI: 1.02, 1.15) increased the odds of risky behaviours. Among Medical Sciences' students, health concerns are linked with risky behaviours. The result of this study can be used to develop relevant interventions targeting mental health to reduce risky behaviour among youth.
应对生活问题的需求可能会促使个人采取高风险行为。本研究旨在确定健康问题与高风险行为之间的关系。
横断面研究。
我们于 2017 年 9 月至 12 月采用分层抽样方法,从伊朗北部抽取了 926 名医学专业学生作为样本。
最常见和最不常见的高风险行为分别为身体活动不足(97.5%)和高危性行为(15.7%)。在多变量逻辑回归分析中,参与者对人类性行为(AOR:1.39;CI:1.22,1.57)、预防和控制伤害(AOR:1.12;CI:1.01,1.20)、营养(AOR:1.13;CI:1.02,1.26)和情绪健康(AOR:1.08;CI:1.02,1.15)的关注增加了发生危险行为的可能性。在医学专业学生中,健康问题与危险行为有关。本研究的结果可用于制定针对心理健康的相关干预措施,以减少年轻人的危险行为。
