Promoting Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors in High School Students

Adolescence (ages 10-19) is a critical developmental stage in which individuals undergo significant physical, psychological, and social changes. Health behaviors acquired during this period often persist into adulthood, directly influencing both individual and public health. Adolescents' lifestyles are shaped by factors such as family, school, peers, and socio-cultural environment. A healthy lifestyle includes habits such as regular physical activity, balanced nutrition, adequate sleep, and limited screen time, all of which are key determinants of quality of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational program designed to improve high school students' hygiene, screen use, nutrition, physical activity, and sleep habits. It is hypothesized that the program will increase students' healthy lifestyle beliefs and hygiene behaviors, while reducing screen addiction and insomnia levels.
