Abstract

　We conducted a study on 1,150 nurses working at hospitals in the southern port of Ibaraki prefecture, Japan to clarify the relationship between psychosocial factors and life style among nurses working hospitals in southern port of Ibaraki prefecture, Japan.

　The following results were obtained:

1. The average Health practice index (HPI) was 4.8±1.29 (means±SD). The average HPI of the age group 50 and over was higher than that of the other groups.

2. According to the data of all the subjects together, Health practice index (HPI) was significantly related to the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ), work-life satisfaction and life satisfaction.

3. In the age group 20-29 and 30-39, HPI was positively correlated with the work-life satisfaction and life satisfaction, but negatively correlated with General Health Questionnaire(GHQ).

4. In the age group 40-49, negative correlation of Health practice index (HPI) with General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) was observed while a positive correlation of Health practice index (HPI) and social supports was observed in the age group 50 and over.
