Abstract

The purpose of this exploratory, correlational survey was to determine predictors of a health-promoting lifestyle and sexual satisfaction among a group of healthy men. A second purpose was to determine the relationship between these outcome variables within this population. A total of 136 survey packets was mailed to members of two social groups, and 41 completed surveys were returned (33%). Step-wise multiple regression analysis and Pearson product-moment correlations were used to analyze the data. Significant predictors of health-promoting lifestyle were body image, education, and self-esteem (p less than .0001); level of education was the only significant predictor of sexual satisfaction (p = .0223); and the relationship between health-promoting behaviors and sexual satisfaction was significant (r = -.3783, p = .008). Findings have implications for theory development and nursing practice in the area of sexual health.
