Abstract:
Young adulthood is a critical period because it is the time when young people begin to live on their own, and adopt health behaviours which can influence their lifestyle and health status. In social practice there are many community belongings and community-ba-sed support systems and programs in health, which aim to increase young adults’ health literacy and offer learning possibilities and support services.The study focuses on the education and the literacy as determinants of health, seve-ral fields of health education and health promotion related to young adults, elements and determinants of health culture, the links between health and learning, adults’ interest and claims related to learning process, methods, topics.In my research I made a survey of learning methods and contents with the help of the analysis of the scientific literature and by questionnaires. I examined young adults’ (18 to 30) concepts of health and healthy lifestyle, motivations, forms of communication, learningmethods and participation in community platforms of health. We use the results of this research to improve programs that support young people’s learning activities for health.

Abstract:
Health care needs of disabled young adults and access to care are analyzed using the 1984 National Health Interview Survey, a nationally representative sample of 10 394 randomly selected noninstitutionalized young adults aged 19 to 24. In 1984, 1.4 million young adults (almost 6%) suffered from disabilities. The leading cause of disability was diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue. Young adults living in poverty, in households where the family reference person had less than a high school education, and who were male were at elevated risk of disability. Disabled young adults made almost three times as many physician contacts and were hospitalized for close to six times as many days as nondisabled young adults. One of every 5 disabled young adults was uninsured in 1984. Forty-one percent of disabled Hispanic 19- to 24-year-olds and 51% of disabled young adults of other races were uninsured compared with 19% of whites and blacks. Research and financing policy implications are discussed.

Abstract:
Marriage is widely thought to confer mental health benefits, but little is known about how this apparent benefit may vary across the life course. Early marriage, which is nonnormative, could have no, or even negative, mental health consequences for young adults. Using survey data from waves 1 and 3 of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health ( n = 11,695), I find that married young adults exhibit levels of psychological distress that are similar to those of young adults in any kind of romantic relationship. Married and engaged young adults also report lower frequency of drunkenness than those who are not in a romantic relationship. Married young adults, especially those who first married at ages 22 to 26, report higher life satisfaction than those in other type of romantic relationships,those in no romantic relationship, and those who married prior to age 22. Explanations for these findings are examined, and their implications are discussed.

Abstract:
There is a growing recognition of the need for the primary prevention of chronic illnesses across the lifespan. In recent years, diseases that were formerly associated with adulthood such as diabetes are being diagnosed in adolescents and young adults. While there have been many prevention efforts focusing on health in children and adolescents, there is a limited body of research examining prevention in young adults. This article examines the concept of wellness in the Millennial generation and describes how their life course experiences impact seven domains of wellness. Specifically, this article describes the period and cohort effects that influence the domains of wellness and how the Millennial generation differs from other generations in these aspects of wellness. Finally, this paper provides an overview of the technological and cultural influences on wellness in the Millennial generation.

Abstract:
Depression, as a heterogeneous collection of disorders, is likely to include subgroups that are more genetic in origin. In common with other neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease, earlier age at onset in depression is associated with higher genetic loading and poorer long-term outcome. Adolescents and young adults with depression are also at high risk of developing a bipolar illness. This article reviews depressive illnesses that occur for the first time in adolescence and young adulthood. Case studies are used to discuss atypical presentations and the evolving concept of bipolar-spectrum disorders.

Abstract:
The obesity problem has reached a critical level and is threatening not only personal health but also public health systems around the world. Obesity in young adults is especially rapidly growing and many studies have confirmed that the best prevention is developing healthy eating habits with the improvement of food and health promotion literacy competencies. In this context, this study diagnoses the present levels of food literacy and health promotion literacy among young adults and explores the relationships between both literacies and their healthy eating habits. A total of 325 young adults in South Korea participated in this research, and the results are as follows. First, all food literacy components, which are food and nutrition knowledge, food skills, and resilience, are positively associated with healthy eating habits. Second, health promotion literacy is also positively associated with young adults’ healthy eating habits. Lastly, unlike the primary information sources, gender has a moderating effect on the relationships between both literacies and healthy eating habits. This indicates that the government and educational sectors should propose more policy supports and solid education systems in order to help young adults develop their food and health promotion literacies for overall well-being in the future.

Abstract:
The internet has been recognized as one of the common health-seeking platforms that widely used to maintain physical and mental wellness. Malaysian internet users make use of the connection to obtain as their fundamental basis for a lifestyle change and to meet the difference needs, especially young adults who grown up in this technology era. There are little or limited research conducted particularly on young adult’s health information seeking behavior. The objective of this study is to determine the underlying factors influencing the utilization of internet for information seeking in the context of health among young adults in Malaysia. A total of 370 private university young adults were chosen randomly to take part in this quantitative research via convenience sampling. The research objectives were examined with the theoretical support of Health Belief Model and Technology Acceptance Model. Four underlying variables behind the influences of internet usage for health information seeking were recognized. The major findings of this study indicate that perceived usefulness was appropriate to act as the main predictor which empowering young adults to possess digital health sources from the web. Limitations are taken into consideration; future researchers are encouraged to expand study to bigger demographic group and acquire in-depth information using qualitative method on other underlying factors to better comprehend young adults’ attitude towards the use of technology communication for health support. This study is appropriate to act as guidance which ease for health provider to determine the strategies to come out with health care websites best targeting on young adults. Malaysia government could then address these barriers and generate alternatives to minimize or eliminate the barriers to increase the prevalence of health information seeking activity among young adults.

Abstract:
Research on the association between prenatal substance exposures and adaptive functioning among young adults is limited, with inconsistent conclusions. In a prospective longitudinal study of 138 urban young adults, prenatal substance exposures were identified at birth from maternal self-report, urine screens, and/or infant meconium. At follow-up between ages 18 and 24 years, masked interviewers assessed level of adaptive functioning, a composite indicator comprising five domains: education, housing, adolescent pregnancy, arrest history, and employment. A significant negative association was found between prenatal tobacco exposure and adaptive functioning, particularly among females with heavier exposure. This association with heavier, but not lighter, prenatal tobacco exposure is consistent with a neuroteratologic explanation, but other, non-biological explanations cannot be ruled out. No statistically significant associations were observed between prenatal cocaine, marijuana, or low-moderate alcohol exposure and young adult adaptive functioning.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTBackground: Many older adults have at least one chronic disease and experience greater health problems than young adults. However, little is known about factors other than health that account for health anxiety (HA) among older adults. The overall objective of the present study was to develop a better understanding of HA among older and young adults.Methods: We examined how anxiety-related constructs (anxiety sensitivity, intolerance of uncertainty, anxiety control, and emotion regulation) predict two core components of HA described in the cognitive–behavioral model of HA (illness likelihood and negative consequences) in older and young adults. We also examined the extent to which the predictor variables differentially account for HA in both age groups. Older and young adult participants completed several self-report surveys.Results: Young adults reported higher levels of HA than older adults. Anxiety sensitivity and reappraisal predicted illness likelihood for older and young adults. Intolerance of uncertainty predicted negative consequences in both age groups. Anxiety sensitivity predicted negative consequences for older adults only. Anxiety control did not predict illness likelihood or negative consequences for either age group.Conclusions: Results suggest that anxiety sensitivity and intolerance of uncertainty may predispose older and young adults to HA, which is influenced by reappraisal. Implications for the cognitive–behavioral model of HA in both age groups are discussed.

Abstract:
En el presente trabajo se efectuó una revisión de la literatura acerca de los estilos de vida de jóvenes universitarios y los principales factores de riesgo para la salud, lo cual permite concluir que los adultos jóvenes en general tienden a adoptar conductas de riesgo como el sedentarismo, el consumo abusivo de sustancias tóxicas (alcohol, cigarrillo y drogas ilegales) y dietas nutricionales incorrectas, entre otras. Algunos autoresatribuyen estos factores de riesgo y estilos de vida poco saludables a las conexiones frágiles entre esta población de adolescentes y adultos jóvenes, con las redes de apoyo como son la familia y los centros educativos. Esta situación enfatiza la importancia de potenciar los centros educativos como escenarios y contextos saludables, dado que se constituyen en un sistema intermedio que vincula el sistema familiar, el académico y el grupo de pares y amigos. El promover estilos de vidasaludables en los jóvenes podría reducir de manera importante la mortalidad global, lo cual se constituye en un valioso aporte a la esperanza y calidad de vida de una población. In this paper a literature review was conducted regarding the lifestyles of young universitystudents and the major risk factors for health. The study leads to the conclusionthat young adults generally tend to adopt risky behaviors such as physical inactivity,abuse of toxic substances (alcohol, cigarettes, illegal drugs) and incorrect nutritionaldiets. Some authors attribute these risk factors and unhealthy lifestyles to the fragileconnections between this population of adolescents and young adults, with supportnetworks such as family and schools. This emphasizes the importance of empoweringschools as healthy settings and contexts, given that they constitute an intermediatesystem that links family, schools and friends together. Promoting healthy lifestyles inyoung adults could significantly reduce overall mortality, which constitutes a valuablecontribution to life expectancy and quality of a population.

Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the effect of health consciousness, knowledge about healthy food, attitudes toward healthy food, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control on the intention to consume healthy food, which subsequently affects the consumption of healthy food among Malaysian young adults. The current study also examined the moderating effect of perceived barriers on the association between intention to consume healthy food and the consumption of healthy food. This study adopted a cross-sectional design and collected quantitative data from 1651 Malaysian young adults (between the age of 18 and 40 years) by sharing a Google form link through social media. The findings reveal that health consciousness, knowledge about healthy food, attitude toward healthy food, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control had a significant positive effect on the intention to consume healthy food. Findings also show that the intention to consume healthy food has a significant positive effect on the consumption of healthy food among Malaysian young adults. Furthermore, the findings reveal the positive and significant mediating effect of the intention to consume healthy food and the significant moderating effect of perceived barriers on the association between the intention to consume healthy food and the consumption of healthy food. The multi-group analysis revealed that the effect of perceived barriers on the consumption of healthy food and the moderating effect of perceived barriers were significantly higher among urban respondents. Health and agriculture policymakers should focus on the attributes of healthy eating practices and their health benefits to promote the mass adoption of healthy food among Malaysian young adults.

Abstract:
This study assessed the extent to which clinically measured oral health conditions, adjusted for sociodemographic and oral health behavior determinants, impact adversely on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in a sample of Belgian young adults. The null hypothesis was that, among young adults, the oral health conditions would have no impact on their quality of life. The participants were 611 new patients aged 16-32 years seeking consultation at the Saint-Luc University Hospital in Brussels in 2010-2011. The patients (56.0% female) were examined for their oral health conditions and answered a validated questionnaire about sociodemographic and oral health behavior determinants in addition to questions about their OHRQoL. The abridged Oral Health Impact Profile-14 was used to assess the OHRQoL. Interexaminer reliability for caries was 0.86 (95% CI 0.84-0.89, nonweighted κ). The outcome was a high score on the OHRQoL (median split). Hierarchical logistic regression analysis showed that young adults with clinical absolute D1MFS scores between 9 and 16 (OR = 2.14, p = 0.031) and between 17 and 24 (OR = 3.10, p = 0.003) were significantly more likely to report a high impact on their quality of life than those with lower scores. Also, periodontal conditions compromised significantly (OR = 1.79, p = 0.011) the quality of life of young adults. In conclusion, this study identified oral health conditions with a significant adverse effect on the OHRQoL of young adults. However, the prevalence of young adults reporting impacts on at least 1 performance affected fairly often or very often was limited to 18.7% of the sample.

Abstract:
Obesity and smoking continue to be some of the nation’s top health concerns. This study explored the interrelationships among exercise, nutrition and smoking behaviors among young college adults. Undergraduate psychology students (N=612) completed an internet survey that included measures of exercise, nutrition and smoking behaviors. Analyses revealed that more males were exercising while more females were eating nutritiously. The Transtheoretical Model constructs stage of change for exercise and eating nutritiously were significantly related. There were no significant differences found for smoking behavior across the stages of change for exercise or nutrition. Health professionals and researchers should not assume that regular exercise is associated with a non-smoking status or that a non-smoking status is associated with consuming a more nutritious diet. Further research and intervention is strongly urged targeted towards both men and women among the young college adult population.

Abstract:
The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the importance of health insurance. Although most of the companies in Malaysia usually provide employee benefit plans such as medical coverage to their employees, the COVID-19 pandemic that severely impacted the economy and employment has also abruptly exposed the unemployed and retrenched workers to the risk of high medical costs. Thus, this study aims to identify the factors that affect the purchase intention of health insurance among Malaysian young adults in the transitional period of life and could be vulnerable to potentially catastrophic expenses in severe injury or illness. Using a convenience sampling method, a set of self-administered questionnaires was distributed to 200 young adults in Malaysia who are aged between 18 to 25 years old. The results show that attitude, perceived behavioural control, and perceived financial benefits significantly influence health insurance's purchase intention. This study offers an insight into the rationale of buying health insurance among Malaysian young adults, mainly from the behavioural perspective. The finding also suggests important managerial implications to the associated parties, particularly in reinforcing a positive attitude towards health insurance's purchase intention among Malaysian young adults.
