Abstract

A listed pilot survey presents results from a health and a healthy lifestyle field. Its aim was to establish a level of selected lifestyle and health determinants of adolescent students from Secondary School of Medicine in Banská Bystrica. A research group consisted of female students, ranging from the first to the fourth grade of a stated school. A total number was 421 female students and their average age was 16.74 years.We used the second field of a standardized questionnaire CINDI "health services and health status", which was created by World Health Organization (WHO). The research affirmed a presence of a musculoskeletal system weakening, especially back pain, during the last year. Statistically significant differences among groups were not detected. A low effect of effect size was detected, which means that result was not influenced by statistics possibilities (p>0.05; Chí = 2.171; w = 0.144).A presence of problems was much more diverse, during the last month, within which we could observe some connection between the particular problems. The students stated that a headache caused them most of the problems. It can be linked to a sleeplessness and a back, a scruff and a shoulders pain. The sleeplessness is to a large extent caused by a stress, which occurred in 83.4 % from all cases (p<0.01; Chí = 6.653; w = 0.253). Despite this unfavourable ascertainment, 75.9 % of the adolescent female students from the first and 73.2 % from the second group evaluate their health status to be positive (p<0.05; Chi = 9.516; φ c = 0.304). However, it clashes with a previous ascertainment because almost 80 % of all respondents have 3 and more ascertained health problems within the last month.
