Adolescence is the period when people adopt healthy lifestyle behaviors and turn them into habits. Healthy lifestyle behaviors are a significant step toward a long and healthy life.
This study investigated the effect of a training program on adolescents' stress levels and healthy lifestyle behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This randomized controlled study was conducted between May and July 2021. The sample consisted of 100 adolescents living in a city in the south of Turkey. Participants were randomized into intervention and control groups using block randomization. The intervention group participated in an online (Zoom) training program consisting of two 45 min sessions once a week for 8 weeks. Data were collected using the adolescent stress questionnaire (ASQ) and the adolescent lifestyle profile (ALP).
The results showed that 73% (n: 73) of the participants had developed hygiene habits since the onset of the pandemic. However, the pandemic negatively affected participants' dietary habits (45%, n: 45), physical activity (70%, n: 70), coping mechanisms (68%, n: 68), sleep patterns (54%, n: 54), Internet/social media/video game addiction (64%, n: 64), and interpersonal relationships (57%, n: 57). The intervention group had a lower mean ASQ posttest score and a higher mean ALP posttest score than the control group. The intervention group had a lower mean ASQ posttest score than their pretest score. The intervention group also had a higher mean ALP posttest score than their pretest score.
CONCLUSIONS/IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The training program helped adolescents feel less stress and adopt more healthy lifestyle behaviors. Pediatric nurses should identify risk factors and design and implement appropriate plans to help adolescents go through future pandemics with as little damage as possible. Parents and educators should support adolescents against the adverse impacts of events such as the COVID 19 pandemic.
标题：青少年时期是人们养成健康生活方式并将其变为习惯的阶段。健康的生活方式是迈向长寿健康生活的重要一步。
目的：本研究旨在调查新冠疫情期间培训计划对青少年压力水平和健康生活方式行为的影响。
方法：这是一项在 2021 年 5 月至 7 月间进行的随机对照研究。样本由居住在土耳其南部某城市的 100 名青少年组成。采用区组随机化将参与者分为干预组和对照组。干预组参加了一个为期 8 周、每周一次、每次 45 分钟的在线（Zoom）培训计划。使用青少年压力问卷（ASQ）和青少年生活方式问卷（ALP）收集数据。
结果：结果显示，73%（n=73）的参与者自疫情开始以来养成了卫生习惯。然而，疫情对参与者的饮食习惯（45%，n=45）、体育活动（70%，n=70）、应对机制（68%，n=68）、睡眠模式（54%，n=54）、网络/社交媒体/视频游戏成瘾（64%，n=64）和人际关系（57%，n=57）产生了负面影响。干预组的 ASQ 后测得分较低，ALP 后测得分较高。与前测相比，干预组的 ASQ 后测得分较低，ALP 后测得分较高。
结论/对实践的启示：培训计划有助于青少年减轻压力，养成更多健康的生活方式行为。儿科护士应识别风险因素并设计和实施适当的计划，以帮助青少年在未来的大流行中尽可能减少伤害。家长和教育者应支持青少年应对新冠疫情等事件的不利影响。
