Abstract

Purpose

This study was done to examine the effects of mood state, resourcefulness, and health perception on health promoting behavior of hospital nurses.

Methods

Convenience sampling was conducted for nurses working at three University hospital and 336 nurses were selected. Data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0.

Results

The results of the analysis showed that the score for nurses' mood state was 41.76±18.90; for resourcefulness, 11.30±20.63; for health perception, 3.32±.77, and for health promoting behavior, 111.55±17.76. Mood state, resourcefulness, and health perception were significantly correlated with health promoting behavior. The overall explanatory power of the effects of nurses' mood state, resourcefulness, and health perception on health promoting behavior was 27.8%.

Conclusion

Study results indicate that better mood state, higher resourcefulness, and higher health perception result in more health promoting behavior.

Keywords: Nurse, Mood state, Resourcefulness, Health perception, Health promoting behavior
