The aim of this study was to analyse health behavior, taking into account the following aspects: proper nutritional habits (PNH), preventive behaviors (PB), positive thinking (PT) and health practices (HP) in the light of general index of intensity of health behaviors (GIIHB) of pregnant women participating in antenatal classes in Szczecin. Juczyński’s (2001) Health Behavior (HBI) Inventory constitutes the methodological basis for this investigation. Among examined respondents participating in prenatal school activities a high health behaviors indicator was stated in nearly half of them (49.0%). Unfortunately, among the rest of examined pregnant women health behaviors were on the average (37.4%) or low level (13.6%). None of the above categories of health behaviours obtained remarkably higher point values. Therefore, it can be stated that there is a necessity to promote preventive activities to spread information concerning healthy eating habits and to recommend advantages resulting from health behaviors.
The aim of our study was to analyze the relationships between health behaviours and quality of life. Research was conducted on a sample of 144 women in the third trimester of pregnancy, participating in antenatal classes. The tools used for investigation of health behaviour was Health Behaviour Inventory and for the quality of life was Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQoL-Bref). The analysis of results between women with high, average and low General Index of Intensity of Health Behaviours (GIIHB) showed statistically relevant difference in quality of life only in the Environment domain ( p ≤ 0.05). Depending on GIIHB, there are different correlations between categories of health behaviours and quality of life. The present research confirmed the existence of correlations between health behaviours and perceived quality of life among pregnant women participating in antenatal classes. The observed correlations show a need for further investigation and taking into account also other individual and socio-economic factors.
Background: The aim of the presented study was to analyse self-assessment of the quality of life and general health behaviours among the students of the University of the Third Age. Material/Methods: The research was conducted on a sample of 81 persons (M = 62.6, SD = 6.1). The tool used for assessing the quality of life was the Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQoL-BREF, Polish version), and the methodological basis for investigating health behaviour was the Health Behaviour Inventory. Results: The analysis conducted among all participants showed statistically significant positive correlations between the General Index of Intensity of Health Behaviours (GIIHB) and the quality of life in the Social Relationships domain (Rs = 0.232; p ≤ 0.05). Statistically significant positive correlations were also found between Positive Thinking in the Health Behaviour Inventory and two WHOQoL-BREF domains: the Psychological domain (Rs = 0.238; p ≤ 0.05) and the Social Relationships domain (Rs = 0.264; p ≤ 0.05). Conclusions: The results of our research may prove very helpful in designing health promotion programs for an ageing society. Further longitudinal studies with a larger sample size are needed in order to identify more clearly the relationships that occur between health behaviours and the quality of life, especially in the process of ageing.
