Abstract

This study examined the differences in health behavior, type A behavior patterns, coping styles, physical symptoms between Korean Adventists and non-Adventists. The participants were 346 college students (129 Adventists and 217 non-Adventists) and 335 adults over 30 years old (158 Adventists and 177 non-Adventists). The instruments utilized in the present study were the Framingham Tape A Behavior Pattern Scale, AUDIT(Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test), the Multidimensional Coping Scale, and Chon's Physical Symptom Questionnaire. Results indicated that Adventists' dietary styles were significantly different from non-Adventists' dietary styles, and Adventists consumed less alcoholic beverage and cigarette than non-Adventists did. Although Adventist's coping styles were different from non-Adventist's coping styles, there were no differences in level of type A behavior pattern and reported physical symptoms between those two groups. A forward stepwise regression analysis revealed that type A behavior patterns accounted for most variance of physical symptoms. Results of this study were discussed with antecedent studies on Adventist's health in United States and other countries.
