For JHLS, scores for the Internal-HLC were highest, as respondents believed that they were responsible for their illnesses and health. Nursing students obtained high scores for stress management self-care and low scores for dietary self-care. Students consulted those around them when they had problems, and performed self-care aimed at preserving balance of body and mind by consciously taking breaks in times of physical stress. However, participants tended not to eat balanced meals or make healthy food choices. These results have illuminated some areas that need to be addressed when providing guidance to students about managing their health.}, pages = {83--89}, title = {Survey on the practice of self-care and HLC among nursing students}, volume = {8}, year = {2008} }
