Purpose:The purpose of this study was to analyze factors influencing health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among male adults. Methods: Participants were 196 male adults who were recruited from June to July 2016. Seven variables related to HRQoL including age, perceived stress, physical activities, problem drinking, social support, self-esteem, depression were measured. Data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 20.0 program and Amos 18.0 for descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients and path analysis. Results: The mean for HRQoL was 80.14. The path analysis showed that depression had the greatest direct effect on HRQoL. It was found that perceived stress had direct and total effects on HRQoL. It also mediated the paths of social support and self-esteem to HRQoL. These factors account for 68% of the total variance, and the fit indices of the model satisfied the criteria of fitness. Conclusion:The results indicate that these factors influencing HRQoL should be considered when developing programs to improve HRQoL for male adults.

“…They spend extended periods at their work sites and often operate in unfavorable environments, which can limit their access to appropriate medical assistance and healthcare professionals when health problems arise. Such cases are observed with some frequently [8]. The study findings indicate a low rate of engagement in health promotion behaviors among middle-aged male workers in the workplace [9].…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the phases of change of exercise among male workers and to analyze the factors affecting their EB using Information-Motivation-Behavioral skill-Revealed Related Variables (IMBR) model. The study included 163 male workers from a major Hyundai Transys company, Seosan city. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation coefficients, and hierarchical regression etc. Regarding the phases of change in exercise, 135 individuals (82.8%) were classified into phase 3 (preparation phase), phase 4 (action phase), and phase 5 (maintenance phase). In the first step, factors such as health status (β = 0.26 , p < 0.001), smoking (β = 0.16, p= 0.005), number of exercises per week (β = 0.35, p < 0.001), times of each exercise (β = 0.17, p = 0.005), and phases of change in exercise (β = 0.17, p = 0.014) were identified as significant factors affecting EB. In the second step, health status (β = 0.19, p = 0.001), smoking (β = −0.13, p = 0.019), number of exercises per week (β = 0.31, p < 0.001), phases of change in exercise (β = 0.13, p = 0.034), and sport commitment (β = 0.16, p = 0.019) were identified as significant factors. In the third step, health status (β = 0.27, p < 0.001), number of exercises per week (β = 0.14, p = 0.005), and exercise self-efficacy (β = 0.39, p < 0.001) were identified as significant factors, explaining 68.3% of the variance in EB. To promote EB, it’s important to assess the phases of change in exercise and consider factors such as health status, smoking, the number of exercises per week and the duration of each exercise. Interventions that enhance sport commitment and exercise self-efficacy should be considered. It’s recommended to apply IMBR model in exercise studies for workers.

This study aims to identify the mediating effect of health promoting behavior in the relationship between depression and health-related quality of life, and between social support and health-related quality of life among migrant workers. Methods: Data were collected from 152 migrant workers working at companies in K and B metropolitan cities. The study conducted a survey from August 1 to September 30, 2019, and used self-report structured questionnaires that were translated into English and Korean. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, simple and multiple regression, Baron and Kenny's method, and Sobel test. Results: Depression was significantly negatively correlated with social support (r=-.29, p<.001), health promoting behavior (r=-.30, p<.001) and health-related quality of life (r=-.44, p<.001). And social support was significantly positively correlated with health promoting behavior (r=.50, p<.001) and health-related quality of life (r=.44, p<.001). And health promoting behavior was significantly positively correlated with health-related quality of life (r=.51, p<.001). Furthermore health promoting behavior showed partial mediating effects in the relationship between depression and health-related quality of life (Z=3.26, p<.001), and showed partial mediating effects in the relationship between the social support and health-related quality of life (Z=3.98, p<.001). Conclusion: In this study, depression and social support were shown to mediate health promotion behavior to improve health-related quality of life. Therefore, in order to improve the health-related quality of life of migrant workers, it is necessary to focus on the health promotion behaviors, and effective strategies are needed to reduce depression, and support social support.
