Abstract

The current climate of healthcare reform demands an increased curricular emphasis on primary prevention, yet the relationship between the level of curricular emphasis on primary prevention and the health behaviors of nursing students has not been established. The purpose of the study was to determine if there is a difference in the self-reported health behaviors of nursing students enrolled in baccalaureate nursing programs ranked as having high and low levels of emphasis on primary prevention. Neuman's systems model was the conceptual framework for the study.
