本研究的目的在探討某專科學校夜間部男生在年齡、 有無宗教信仰、
工作狀況、是否已服完兵役等項目中與學生健康控握信念、自我概念的關
係；以及健康控握信念和自我概念間相互的關係；並研究現今嚼檳榔者與
現今非嚼檳榔者在健康控握信念及自我概念得分上的差異；以及研究受試
者之背景因素、相關變項、健康控握信念與自我概念對其嚼檳榔行為的影
響。研究對象以某專校夜間部男生為母群體，採用簡單隨機集束抽樣抽出
八個班級 301 人為研究樣本， 並以自編之「某專科學校夜間部男生嚼檳
榔行為之研究問卷」為研究工具，計得有效問卷 296 份。 本研究所得結
果如下：一、本研究樣本平均年齡為 23.63 歲，約有六成的學生具有宗
教信仰， 絕大部份學生 在課餘時間上班，超過六成五的學生已服完
兵役。在相關變項方面，約有半數的學 生被歸類為吸菸者，超過三分
之二的學生有飲酒行為。在健康控握信念方面，機運 外控型的健康控
握信念得分最高、強勢他人外控型次之，而內控型健康控握信念得 分
最低。 在自我概念的得分方面，平均每位學生得分為 238.14。至於「現
今是否 為嚼檳榔者」之分佈，以嚼檳榔者較少，而非嚼檳榔者較多。
二、在背景因素與健康控握信念的關係方面，年齡、宗教信仰、工作狀況
、是否服完兵 役與健康控握信念無關。在背景因素與自我概念的關係
方面，年齡、宗教信仰、工 作狀況與自我概念無關，但服過兵役者之
自我概念較未服過兵役者為高。三、在健康控握信念與自我概念的關係方
面，只有機運型健康控握信念與自我概念呈顯 著的正相關，其它健康
控握信念與自我概念無關。四、現今是否為嚼檳榔者在健康控握信念及自
我概念得分的差異方面，兩組受試者在各 變項上並無顯著差異。五、
在嚼檳榔行為的影響因素方面，吸菸行為與飲酒行為最能預測受試者的嚼
檳榔行為。 最後，依據本研究的結果及研究過程中的問題，提出若干
建議，作為嚼檳榔教育及未來類似研究之參考。

The purpose of this study was to predict and understand health
locusof control (HLC) and self-concept in correlation with the
age, religion, working situtation, military service of male
students in the eveningdivision of a junior college. The
influence of background, related factors health of control and
self-concepts on the betal nuts chewing behavior of the subjects
was another focus of the study. The population was male
students studing in the evening division of a junior college. By
using a cluster sampling method, 301 subjects wereselected.
After conducting the field survery with a self-designed
questionnaire,296 valid samples we collected. The major results
of the study are as follows:1.For HLC the subjects got the
highest score in the aspect of chance externality health locus
of control (CHLC), The lower score in the powerful others
heslth locus of control(PHLC), and the lowest in the internality
health locus of control (IHLC). In terms of self-concept, the
mean score was 238.14.2.Age, religion, working stiuation and
military service had no significant correction with self-
concept. However, the subject who have finished their military
service has higher self-concept.3.There was a significant
postive correction between CHLC and self-concept, while the
other types of HLC had no significant correction with self-
concept.4.There was no significant difference between those who
chews betal nuts and those who doesn`t chew betal nuts in HLC
and self-concept score.5.Smoking and drinking behaviors had the
highest ability to predict the subjects` betal nuts chewing
behavior.
