نسخه زبان کره ای از برنامه زمانبندی II رفتار بهداشتی به عنوان پیش بینی کننده انطباق

This study is a preliminary psychometric evaluation of the Korean language version of the Health Behavior Schedule-II as a predictor of compliance or adherence to 12 health related habits. The 12 habits are (1) performing breast self-exams; (2) obtaining pap smear screens; (3) taking medication as prescribed; (4) not smoking cigarettes; (5) wearing a bike safety helmet (if applicable); (6) protecting skin from sun; (7) flossing teeth daily; (8) wearing a seat-belt; (9) limiting alcohol consumption; (10) practicing safe sex; (11) exercising regularly; and (12) eating a healthy diet. Predictors of compliance on the Schedule include 45 situational and behavioral competency factors. Past studies have shown the Schedule to be useful for a multiethnic sample of university students in Honolulu, USA and for a mono-ethnic university sample in Stuttgart, Germany. Among a mono-ethnic university sample in Seoul, Republic of Korea, this study found the Korean version of the Schedule yielded acceptable internal consistency and stability reliability estimates. Construct validity was supported for prediction of compliance to 11 of the 12 health behaviors. Compliance enhancement implications are offered.
