Research On The Influencing Factors And Countermeasures Of Residents’ Health Promoting Lifestyle In Hunan Province

Background:People’s health is the premise of a better life and the foundation of a country’s social development.A health promoting lifestyle is an active lifestyle that contributes to improving one’s health.Objective:To understand the level of the health promoting lifestyle of residents in Hunan Province,analyze the differences in the level of health promoting lifestyle of Hunan residents with different demographic characteristics,and conduct research on its influencing factors,so as to provide suggestions for the countermeasures to improve the health promoting lifestyle level of Hunan residents.Methods:After literature research,combined with characteristics of the residents’ lifestyle in Hunan Province,a questionnaire was formulated with the theme of "Health Promoting Lifestyle and Influencing Factors of Residents in Hunan Province",and 4 prefecture-level cities and 1 autonomous prefecture were selected for the survey.Use SPSS 25.0 software to carry out statistical analysis on the data,build a model through AMOS 24.0 software and conduct verification research,and put forward corresponding countermeasures according to the research results.Results:Hunan Resident Health Promoting Lifestyle Scale was developed in this paper,and the scale has good reliability and validity(Cronbach’s alpha range from 0.758 to 0.939,KMO sampling suitability measure>0.9).In the questionnaire survey,a total of 1938 valid questionnaires were received.The total score(standard score)of residents in Hunan Province for health promoting was 74.24,and the scores(standard score)of 8 dimensions were ranked from high to low:Personal protection and hygiene(84.90),interpersonal relationships(81.56),stress management(79.56),spiritual growth(78.60),nutrition(77.72),health responsibility(74.12),physical activity(64.62),health risk(59.66).Univariate analysis found that female(p<0.05),26-35 years old(p<0.001),ranked fifth in regional economic level(p<0.001),urban area(p<0.05),undergraduate(p<0.001),civil servants(p<0.05),being married(p<0.001),monthly income higher than 9000 yuan(p<0.001),and having purchased basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents(p<0.001)performance better on the level of health promoting lifestyle.The influencing factor model constructed in this paper has a good degree of fit.The model test results show that the health promoting lifestyle level of Hunan residents is directly affected by four factors:individual,interpersonal,organizational,and community(p<0.05,CR>1.96).The path coefficient of the political factor is not significant(p>0.05),which means it has a direct impact on the level of health promoting lifestyle;there is a positive correlation between each influencing factor(p<0.05,CR>1.96),so that policical factors can have indirect effects on the level of health promoting lifestyle through other factors.Conclusion:Health Promoting Lifestyle Scale For Hunan Residents used in this study is suitable for evaluating the health promoting lifestyle of residents in Southern Province;the current health promoting lifestyle of Hunan residents is generally at a good level,in which the personal protection and hygiene behaviors are the highest,and the health risk behaviors scores are the lowest;the structural equation model can be used to build the influencing factor model and discover the relationship between the influencing factors.Individual,interpersonal,organizational and community factors have a direct impact on health promoting living standards,among which interpersonal factors play the greatest role.There is a significant correlation between different influencing factors.Policy has no direct impact on health promoting living standards,but may have indirect effects through other four factors.The countermeasures to improve the health level of residents in Hunan Province can be put forward from the above different levels.
