Journal of School Health, v71 n1 p23-29 Jan 2001
Surveyed Japanese high school students' health risk behavior patterns, examining clustering and accumulation of health risk behaviors. Physical inactivity and alcohol use were the most common risk behaviors. Prevalence rates for most risk behaviors varied by demographic variables. Smoking, drinking, and sexual intercourse clustered among both males and females, with vocational students most likely to concurrently engage in these behaviors. (SM)
