dc.description.abstract |
This research aimed at knowing health awareness level and sources of health information of Students at Al – Balqa Applied University. The sample consisted of (1916) male and female students, randomly selected. The Questionnaire of Health Awareness and its sources was distributed to them. It consisted of (62) items divided into (7) domains. The results indicated that the general health awareness level is high, with (85.27%) of responses, that (90.55%) of the students have high level and (90.44%) of them have medium health awareness level. The analysis also, indicated that health awareness differs according to the variables (Gender and level of Education), where the results showed statistically significant differences in the level of health awareness according to the two variables in favor of females and the fourth year students. The results also indicated that most of the health information sources are the information media. In the light of the above, the researchers recommend activating level of physical education activities geared to developing and reinforcing students' health and their healthy environment. They also recommend prescribing some subjects relating to health, nutrition and physical education activities within the university obligatory requirements. |
