Abstract:
The purpose of this descriptive research was to study about the level of the knowledge and health behavior as national health disciplines of the higher education students, to found out to the compare the health behavior as national health disciplines by classification to the students sex and to found out to the relation between the knowledge level and health behavior as national health disciplines of students by themselves. The sampling group for this research were from 5 educational institutes , which were the higher education level students , such as surindra rajabhat university, Rajamangala university of ethnology , ISAN Surin campus , Boromatajonani college of nursing surin, surin vocational Education college and surin technical College. There were 390 higher education students sampling by selecting facts randomly with sharing. The material that was used to find some information for this research was the questionnaires form of 4 parts were as follow the general information about the national health disciplines knowledge, health behavior and the students health behavior. Besides, these questionnaire forms were checked to the correct of data by experts and tested to the conviction by Cronbachs Alpha Coefficient. The convictions of the questionnaires form were at the level of 0.79. This research was college some information between 27th February to 15Th March 2009. The descriptive statistics were used in analysis consisted of percentage, mean, standard deviation and Independent Sample T-Test ; which was used to be the statistic to compare at the different of 2 populations and using pearson Product Moment Correlation coefficient to found out the relation
From this studying, it was found that the knowledge level to the national health disciplines of the students indicated that the knowledge and health behavior as national health disciplines of the, were average (61.54 percentages). Besides, concerning the level of the health behavior as national health disciplines by themselves it was maximum (¯(X )¬= 2.32). The comparison to the health behavior as the national health disciplines by classification to the students sex were found that the mean of females health behavior was higher than the male at the level of (p.<.05). So, it showed that the female took care their health were better than the male. When the researcher found for the relation between the knowledge and health behavior as the national health disciplines by using the Pearson product moment correlation Coefficient, it showed that the knowledge in the national health disciplines of the students were not related with the health behavior of them at the level of (p.<.01). By all means, the concerned people such as parents, friends, teachers, friends or another closed up people should always give some knowledge to encourage the students to always know about the knowledge and health behavior to be carried on.
