Abstract
This predictive research design aimed to investigate predictability of selected factors to explain health behaviors among people with spinal cord injuries.The PRECEDE-PROCEED Model was used as a conceptual framework to guide this study. Purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria was used to recruit a sample of 150 people with spinal cordinjuries.Four self-administered questionnaires were used in data collection: the Demographic Data Form, the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, the Social Support Questionnaire,and the Health Behaviors Scale.Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics,correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis.The findings revealed that social support and self-esteem were significantly positively related to health behaviors among people with spinal cord injuries. There were no relationships of age and education to health behaviors among them.Social support and self-esteem jointly explained 23%of the variance in health behaviors among people with spinal cord injuries.Social support was the strongest predictor of health behaviors. Our findings suggest that nurses should promote social support and self-esteem to enhance health behaviors among people with spinal cord injuries.
