The stability of health and illness behavior: results from a 16-year follow-up.

D Mechanic.   

Abstract

In 1977, 302 young adults who were among 350 children first studied in 1961 responded to a questionnaire related to their health and illness behavior. Ten types of adult health and illness behaviors and orientations are examined including seat belt use, smoking, exercise, drinking, and risk taking. These patterns are associated only to a modest degree, and patterns of health and illness behavior appear to have low levels of continuity over a 16-year period (correlations varying from .02 to .20).
