Abstract
Background. The authors conducted a sociological study where the respondents were primary care physicians and non-healthcare workers from different fields. The survey demonstrated the respondents’ attitudes towards healthy lifestyles and their self-preservation behaviors, while all of this characterized the attitudes towards healthy lifestyles by groups (healthcare and non-healthcare workers). The survey questions covered the most common lifestyle-related risk factors for noncommunicable diseases. The value-based attitudes of healthcare and non-healthcare workers towards a healthy lifestyle was ranked according to the questionnaire scales. Then, the dimensions of self-preservation behaviors were prioritized based on the degree of their importance in building the value-based attitudes towards a healthy lifestyle in both groups.
Objective. To carry out a comparative analysis of the priority of dimensions for building a value-based attitude towards a healthy lifestyle in healthcare and non-healthcare workers.
Materials and methods. The sociological study involved 400 doctors of various specialties from Moscow and the Moscow Oblast and 400 workers of other fields. The Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II questionnaire was used. The methods of sociological survey with questionnaire and the methods of statistical and analytical data processing were applied.
Results. The authors defined the priority of dimensions for building a value-based attitude towards a healthy lifestyle in healthcare and non-healthcare workers.
