Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify factors affecting health behavior related to particulate matter (PM) of among nursing college students. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was used. Data were collected from 261 volunteering nursing college students from three universities via an online survey. The survey questions measured PM risk perception, self-care agency, and health behavior related to PM. The study was conducted from June 22 to August 21, 2020. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis. Results: The factor with the greatest influence on health behavior related to PM was PM risk perception, followed by self-care agency and the frequency of going out. These variables explained about 41% of the types of health behavior related to PM. Conclusion: PM risk perception and self-nursing agency were found to be significantly correlated with health behavior related to PM. This result suggests that there is a need to develop an educational program for nursing students to improve PM risk perception and self-nursing agency.
