| Popis: | BACKGROUND: The available literature provides no comprehensive comparative analysis of the correlation of network activity of young students of medical universities with behavioral practices concerning health and disease prevention. AIM: The study aimed to examine the correlation of network activity, behavioral stereotypes in health, and self-assessment of physical status among students of medical specialties. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 questionnaire domain was used to examine students self-assessment of physical health. RESULTS: The average level of self-assessment of the quality of life associated with physical health was 63.3 points. More than 40% of the students note the strong influence of information received in online communities on behavior. A stable and average-strength negative correlation was established between the network activity and the index of health-saving behavior. CONCLUSIONS: Students of medical specialties are characterized by a high level of dependence on information received from online communities. Their time spent on the internet is disproportionately long. |
