This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the Health Locus of Control (HLC), social support (SS), self-efficacy (SE) and Health Promoting Behavior (HPB) in middle-aged adults and the factors influencing their HPB. Data were collected from 137 middle-aged adults in the cities of Chungbuk and Chungnam for 2 months from July to August 2016 using structured questionnaires. The data collected were analyzed by descriptive statistics, the t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlations, and multiple regression analysis. The results showed that the HPB varied significantly according to the subjective health (F=10.14, p<.001) and economic level (F=3.32, p= .039) among the general characteristics. In the relationship between the major variables, the HPB showed a significant positive correlation with the SE (r=.44, p<.001) and SS (r=.45, p<.001). A multiple regression analysis was conducted to examine the effects of the general characteristics, HLC, SE, and SS on the HPB, and the results showed that the factors influencing the HPB were the subjective health status (${\beta}=.24$, p=.002), SE (${\beta}=.29$, p<.001), and SS (${\beta}=.30$, p<.001), and these factors showed a combined explanatory power of 36.4%. The results of this study suggest that the SE and SS are important factors affecting the HPB. Therefore, it is necessary to develop and apply a health promotion program reflecting the SE and SS, in order to (promote) the (HPB) of middle-aged adults.

미국에서는 2가지 중요한 움직임이 일어나고 있다. 즉 간호의 문화적 교류와 1차 건강 간호의 움직임이다. 이것들은 모두가 간호 교육과 실제를 증진시키는데 놀랍고, 도전적이며, 유망한 발전이다. 그들은 효과적이고 성공적인 간호원을 준비시키는 간호 지도자들에게 새롭고 무거운 책임을 지우고 있다. 따라서, 우리는 교육적 노력과 실제의 영향을 지도해 줄 수 있는 체계적인 평가와 조사연구가 필요하다는 것을 인식한다. 1차 건강 간호와 간호의 문화적 교류는 일반적 의사의 접근법으로 간호와 건강관리의 관심사에 대해 인류를 도와준다. 이 둘 모두가 인류의 다양한 요구를 만족시킬 수 있는 문화적 생활양식과 지역사회에 기초를 두어야 한다. 이 둘은 기타 간호와 타 건강관리 제공자의 일반적인 건강사업 및 치료사업과 통합되어야 한다. 의심할 여지도 없이 이 둘은 질병예방, 건강증진에 대한 통합적인 접근법과 원기 회복을 위한 건강수행을 위하여 지역적이고 국내적이며 세계적인 건강관리 체제와 실제의 일부분이 되야 한다. 전문적인 간호원은 세계에서 가장 규모가 큰 건강관리 제공자로서 급속히 나타나는 세계 건강 문화 속의 인류를 위하여, 우수한 건강 관리를 개선하고 유지할 수 있는 상당한 잠재력과 도전성을 지니고 있다.
