强调积极生活方式的促进健康的自我保健行为可以改善成年人的健康和生活质量。可能影响健康相关决策的一个变量是马斯洛描述的基本需求状况。本研究的目的是调查基本需求满足、促进健康的自我保健行为之间的关系；以及社区居住成年人样本中选定的人口变量。我们招募了 84 名社区居住成年人作为方便样本，以完成基本需求满意度调查、健康促进生活方式概况 II 和人口统计信息。研究结果表明，自我实现、身体和爱/归属感需求满足占健康促进自我保健行为差异的 64%。这项研究的结果与马斯洛的人类动机理论一致，表明对自己和生活更满意、有身体需求满足、与他人有积极联系的人可能能够在积极的健康促进自我保健行为方面做出更好的决定。
Health-promoting self-care behavior emphasizing positive lifestyle practices may improve the health and quality of life of adults. One variable that may influence health-related decisions is the status of basic needs as described by Maslow. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among basic need satisfaction, health-promoting self-care behavior; and selected demographic variables in a sample of community-dwelling adults. A convenience sample of 84 community-dwelling adults was recruited to complete the Basic Need Satisfaction Inventory, the Health-Promoting Lifestyle profile II, and demographic information. Results of the study indicated that self-actualization, physical, and love/belonging need satisfaction accounted for 64% of the variance in health-promoting self-care behavior The findings of this study are consistent with Maslow's theory of human motivation and suggest that persons who are more fulfilled and content with themselves and their lives, have physical need satisfaction, and have positive connections with others may be able to make better decisions regarding positive health-promoting self-care behaviors.
