Research on the construction of a Chinese indicator system for college students’ multidimensional health
摘要
The trends of subhealth and disease in college students are obvious, and overall health is not good. The college years are a critical stage for the formation of self-health management habits and awareness, which have a profound impact on future development. The existing health assessment tools do not accurately reflect students’ health status because of vague definitions and inconsistent standards. Therefore, the establishment of a multidimensional health indicator system is very important to cultivate awareness of the self-health management of college students.
MethodsAn initial version of the Chinese indicator system for college students’ multidimensional health was constructed on the basis of a literature review, the brainstorming. method, and focus group. discussion. A Delphi questionnaire was designed, and two rounds of consultation were conducted with 21 experts in the field of college student health. The weights of the indicator system obtained after two rounds of Delphi expert consultation were confirmed via the entropy weighting. method. A questionnaire survey of college students was conducted at a university via the purposive sampling. method to preliminarily validate the indicator system.
ResultsThe recovery rates of the two rounds of Delphi questionnaires were 100%, the expert authority coefficients were 0.85 and 0.86, and the Kendall coefficients were 0.138 and 0.157, respectively (P < 0.001). After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the Chinese indicator system for college students’ multidimensional health ultimately retained 6 dimensions and 60 items, including physical health, mental health, lifestyle, environmental health, moral health, and vocational ability, with weights of 0.149, 0.086, 0.298, 0.173, 0.178 and 0.116, respectively. A total of 366 college students were surveyed, and the Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.934.
ConclusionThe Chinese indicator system for college students’ multidimensional health has a certain degree of scientificity and reliability and can be used as a tool for evaluating the health level of college students. This system can help college students understand their own health status comprehensively, provide a basis for colleges and universities to formulate more scientific and reasonable health education programs, and provide a reference for the government and the community to formulate relevant policies.
