The results showed a level of perception of HBM at a high level of (M=3.81, SD=0.36), stroke prevention behaviors at a high level of (M=3.67, SD=0.55) , and the perceptions of perceived susceptibility (r =0.577**, p<0.001), perceived severity (r =0.593**, p<0.001) and perceived benefits (r =0.779**, p<0.001) were associated with stroke preventive behaviors statistically significant at the 0.01 level.
