The technique included several stages. The initial questionnaire included50 questions that covered the most important aspects of the way of life of schoolchildren. Afterevaluating the information content of each of the components of medical and social factors, it wasfound that the most significant for the differentiation of the groups were those that belonged to the“family”, “daily regimen” and their own beliefs regarding health-oriented behavior.So, the factors that negatively affect the health and health of oriented behavior (with a highnegative diagnostic coefficient) include such signs as the fact of smoking of all family members,dissatisfaction with family relationships, lack of motivation to maintain a healthy lifestyle, a positiveattitude towards advertising of low-alcohol drinks or smoking.The final version of the diagnostic questionnaire includes fifteen questions that which correspondthe various components of a lifestyle. For each question, answers are offered in points, based onstandardization on a “sten” scale. Answering questions, the questioned person chooses one of theanswer options that he considers true for himself.When analyzing the results, calculate the total numbers of points of the entire questionnaireand match with the gradations which correspond to the sten scale — low, medium or high level ofnegative impact of medical and social factors on health and health-oriented behavior.Given the identified features, it is recommended that preventive and educational measures betaken.
