건강위험행태 유형과 건강 관련 삶의 질: 서울시 25개 자치구를 대상으로

Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to identify the health problems and risk behaviors that exist in Seoul counties, as well as to understand how health risk behaviors are related to quality of life. Methods: Fuzzy-set ideal type analysis was used to categorize health risk behaviors affecting the quality of life of residents from 25 districts in Seoul. Eight ideal sets were created based on the independent variables: smoking, high-risk drinking, and physical inactivity. Each variable was judged to have attributes based on the average of Seoul. Factors associated with health-related quality of life were identified by type by multiple regression analysis. Results: Those with high scores for two or more health risk behaviors accounted for a larger proportion of the population. Some districts had high scores for specific behaviors with an affiliation score (0-1) of 0.7 or higher, indicating that the health problem is more prevalent in these regions than in other areas. The EQ-5D index found that physical inactivity was the most strongly associated of the three health risk behaviors. Conclusion: Combinations of health risk behaviors have different effects on health levels in different districts, necessitating the consideration of multiple factors. Types of health risk behaviors show potential for use as a basis for selecting and identifying priority health problems for community health promotion projects.
