Sağlık hem bireyler açısından hem de toplumsal anlamda çok yönlü etkisi olan bir kavramdır. Toplumların sağlık düzeylerinin yükselmesi ile beraber refahının arttığı da gözlenmektedir. Dolayısıyla hemen her ülke sağlık statüsünün yükseltilmesi için çaba sarf etmektedir. Burada sağlığın belirleyicileri olarak ifade edilen unsurlar önem arz etmektedir. Zira bir ülkede sağlık hizmetlerinin kalitesi, çevresel koşulların sağlıklı olması gibi unsurların yanı sıra sosyal çevre, kültürel alışkanlıklar ve bu unsurların bireysel davranışlar üzerinde etkisi de göz ardı edilmemelidir. Sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışları olarak ifade edilen bu davranışlar bireylerin ve dolayısıyla toplumun sağlık düzeyinin en önemli belirleyicilerinden bir tanesidir. Bu kapsamda bu çalışmanın amacı sağlık hizmetleri meslek yüksekokulunda öğrenim gören üniversite öğrencilerinin, sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarını değerlendirmek ve bu doğrultuda öneriler geliştirmektir. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak “Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları II” ölçeği ve demografik bilgi formu kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bir vakıf üniversitesinin sağlık hizmetleri meslek yüksekokulunda gönüllü olarak araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 309 öğrenci ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada öğrencilerin sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranış puanlarının ortalama veya ortalamanın altında olduğu, anne eğitim durumu ve sağlık eğitimi alıp almama durumuna göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir (p<0.05). Anne eğitim seviyesi yüksek olan öğrencilerin ve sağlık eğitimi alan öğrencilerin diğer öğrencilere göre daha yüksek puan ortalamalarına sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda genç bireylerin ve özellikle üniversite öğrencilerinin sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının teşvik edilmesi için aile, toplum ve eğitim kurumlarının bütüncül bir yaklaşımla çaba göstermesi önerilir.
