Results:Most responders agreed HPH had positive effects on their health Promotion. Among HPH dimensions, physical environment has the highest effect, and health resource has the lowest effect. Among health promoting life style dimensions, family and social support has the highest effect and health responsibility has the lowest score. We found health behavior self-efficacy, gender, perceived health status, work unit, and education have significant effect on health promoting life style using multiple regression analysis. Health behavior self-efficacy is the single most important factor. It accounts for 41% of the variation.
