The Health Behavior Checklist: Factor structure in community samples and validity of a revised good health practices scale

Abstract: This study examined the factor structure and predictive validity of the commonly used multidimensional Health Behavior Checklist (HBC; Vickers, Conway, & Hervig, 1990). A three-factor structure was found in two community samples that included men and women. The new 16-item Good Health Practices scale and the original Wellness Maintenance scale were the only HBC scales to be related to cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors. While the other HBC scales require further validation, the Good Health Practices sca… Show more

“…It uses a 5-point Likert scale measuring how strongly they agree or disagree with the health statements. The scale has been shown to have good internal reliability and applicable for both genders [32]. The Cronbach Alpha in this data was .80.…”

“…The TIPI was originally included as a filler, but it also allowed us to examine whether any relationship between entitlement and noncompliance could be explained by their association with agreeableness (see Campbell et al, 2004 ; Zajenkowski et al, 2020 ). Next, participants were asked to respond (1 = Not at all like me , 5 = Very much like me ) to the Health Behavior Checklist ( Hampson et al, 2019 ), which includes items such as “I use dental floss regularly” (we added one item: “I wear sunscreen”). They were then asked other questions (unrelated to our main hypothesis) about their predicted future health.…”

“…Second, we developed a concept of health behavior in OAP, consisting of "self-perception of personal power" and "practical skills for daily health". A key difference between concept of HBSO and previous health behavior measures is that previous scales [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] have mainly focused on overt actions of general adults in a stable socioeconomic state toward health promotion and care prevention. In contrast, the HBSO focuses on OAP, revealing that OAP health behavior to prevent NCD is composed of elements that may not be easily observable, such as perception and skills.…”

“…We used specific keywords: health behavior; health practice(s); healthy lifestyle; older adults; poverty; socio-economic status; disadvantaged people; and living alone. This search identified 17 articles [4,33,34,[36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49]. On the basis of this review, we defined health behavior as personal attributes, characteristics, and actions that lead to NCD prevention in OAP.…”
