Abstract
- Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of experiencing diverse, multi-dimensional health promotion programmes in school on students’ self-reported health status. Design: Cross-sectional design. Methods: We surveyed 2,568 students from 15 middle schools and 15 high schools in Korea between August 2014 and January 2015. Self-reported information related to health status, attendance at physical, social, mental or spiritual health promotion programmes, and socio-demographics was collected and analysed. Results: Male students, students aged 15 and below, and students living in rural areas were more satisfied with their health status. Regardless of programme type, the number of health promotion programmes attended correlated positively with better overall health status ( p Conclusion: Participation in health promotion programmes was found to be related not only to the targeted health status but also to other aspects of subjective health.
