摘要
Enhancing a community’s health is essential for societal growth and development. Life skills and a healthy lifestyle can improve mental health and overall well-being. This study investigates the relationship between life skills and general health status among service recipients of comprehensive health service centers in Khalkhal County, northwest Iran.
ResultsA total of 365 participants were included in the study. The mean life skills score was 123.63 (SD = 29.32) and the mean general health score was 30.52 (SD = 15.43). A significant negative correlation was found between life skills and general health (r = -0.55, P < 0.001). Factors such as marital status, age, economic status, type of basic insurance, supplementary insurance, and underlying diseases were identified as predictors of general health. The relationship between life skills and all dimensions of general health was statistically significant (P < 0.001).
