Abstract

The purpose of this study analyzes by confirming the structural relationship between the four variables of Chinese college students' health beliefs, planned behavior, behavioral control, and exercise persistence, this study can establish measures to enhance and improve college students' health beliefs and planned behavior and improve behavioral control. The purpose is to provide basic data to improve the level of continued exercise among college students. The EBI study verified reliability and validity through a preliminary survey targeting 380 people. This survey distributed questionnaires to college students at 52 universities from May 12 to July 21, 2023, and a total of 5,109 copies were finally selected and analyzed, excluding invalid questionnaires. As a result of the study, first, the structural relationship between variables showed that health beliefs had a positive effect on planning behavior, behavioral control, and exercise persistence. Second, planning behavior was found to have a positive effect on behavioral control and motor persistence. Third, behavioral control was found to have a positive effect on exercise persistence. Fourth, planning behavior and behavioral control were found to play a positive mediating role in the relationship between health beliefs and exercise persistence. Therefore, to improve college students' health beliefs, schools should open a health psychology curriculum. Furthermore, there is a need to strengthen college students' beliefs about their health by developing and distributing customized health education programs for college students.

본 연구는 중국 대학생들의 건강 신념, 계획 행동, 행동 제어, 운동 지속성의 네 가지 변수 간의 구조적 관계를 확인함으로써 대학생들의 건강 신념과 계획된 행동의 향상 및 개선 방안을 수립하고, 행동 통제력을 향상시킬 수 있으며, 대학생들의 운동 지속 수준 향상을 위한 기초자료를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 예비조사를 통해 신뢰도와 타당성을 검증한 후 본조사는 2023년 5월 12일부터 7월 21일까지 52개 대학의 대학생을 대상으로 설문지를 배포하여 무효 설문지를 제외하고 총 5109부를 최종선별하여 분석하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 변인 간의 구조적 관계는 건강 신념은 계획 행동과 행동 제어, 운동 지속성에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 계획 행동은 행동 제어와 운동 지속성에도 정적인의 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, 행동제어는 운동 지속성에 정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 넷째, 건강신념과 운동 지속성 간의 관계에서 계획행동과 행동제어는 정적인 매개역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 대학생의 건강신념 향상을 위해 학교에서는 건강심리 교육과정을 개설해야 한다. 더욱이 대학생들을 위한 맞춤형 건강교육 프로그램을 개발 보급함으로써 대학생들의 건강에 대한 신념을 강화할 필요가 있다.
