摘要:Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the meaning of selected social-demographic
factors, such as: gender, place of resident, education, level of knowledge about
health and life orientation in modifying the behaviours related to health among university
students.The study was conducted among 521 students of two major universities of the
South-Eastern Region of Poland. The survey was conducted by means of a diagnostic
survey with the use of the Inventory of Health-Related Behaviuor (Zygfryd Juczynski’s
IZZ), A. Antonovsky’s Sense of Coherence Questionnaire SOC-29 and the original questionnaire,
including socio-demographic variable, as well as a test of statements considering
the assessment of the level of knowledge about health. Methods of descriptive statistics,
such as: mean, standard deviation, median, upper and lower quartile, and highest and
lowest value, methods of analysis of variance, the chi-square test, correlation and linear
regression and Spearman’s rank correlation coeffi cient, one-way analysis of variance,
Pearson product-moment correlation coeffi cient, and backward stepwise regression were
used for statistical analysis. The study showed that almost a half of respondents (48.9%)
were characterized by a low intensity of pro-health behaviour, and among 38.4% it was
on an average level. Gender was a factor that differentiated the intensity of health-related
behaviour – women indicated a higher level of these behaviours. Almost half of the studied
group (48.6%) was characterized by a low level of knowledge about health. The major
meaning among studied factors infl uencing health-related behaviour in the regression
model had the level of sense of coherence, gender and material status.
