Dissertation Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that lifestyle mediates the relationship between hostility and poor health. A lifestyle model of poor health was proposed and a questionnaire employed to gather relevant data. Variables measured were hostility, social support, food preferences, food cognition, eating behavior, intrinsic religious orientation, extrinsic religious orientation, religious behavior, religious habits, health locus of control, health 1xbet online games login , age, sex, smoking, exercise, and marital status. Participants in this study included volunteer members of midwestern congregations (all denominations) and undergraduate students. The total sample consisted of 301 adults ranging in age from 18-75, with a mean age of 32. Path analysis was used to test the proposed model, t-tests were employed to compare those high and low in physical 1xbet online games login , and factor analysis was used to compare food cognition of those high and low in physical 1xbet online games login . Overall, the results showed hostility to be a better predictor of physical 1xbet online games login than foodways and religiosity, however, those high and low in physical 1xbet online games login did differ significantly on several measures of foodways and religiosity. In addition, those high and low in physical 1xbet online games login differ in how they think about food. The theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed.
