| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the relation between life skills and health-related behaviors, in order to develop a comprehensive program to prevent risk behaviors among adolescents. The survey was carried out between November 2000 and February 2001 using 5,636 students from the 5* grade of elementary schools to the 3rd grade of senior high schools in 22 elementary schools, 16 junior high schools and 26 senior high schools, randomly selected from all over Japan. Self-esteem was measured using the Harter Scale, the Pope Scale and Rosenberg Scale. Social skills were measured using the Shimada Scale for elementary school students and the Togasaki Scale for junior and senior high school students. Stress coping skills were measured using an abridged version of the Ohtake Scale.

ast everyday, no use of cigarettes, no use of alcohol beverage, no use of illegal drugs and no experience of sexual intercourse. The social skills scores of elementary school students practicing healthy behaviors relating to exercise, breakfast, smoking, drinking were higher in "pro-social skill", and lower in "withdrawn behavior" and "aggressive behavior". The scores of junior and senior high school students practicing healthy behaviors relating to exercise and breakfast were higher in "relationship improving behavior", "relationship maintaining behavior" and "relationship participating behavior".
The stress coping skills scores of students practicing healthy behavior relating to exercise, breakfast, smoking, drinking and drugs were higher in "support request" and "problem solving" and lower in "change of mood", "emotional avoidance", "behavioral avoidance" and "cognitive avoidance".
The above results suggest that it is necessary to introduce life skills education into health education to prevent risk behaviors. Less
