Positive and Negative Affect, And Personal Need of Structure As Predictors of Health Orientation among a sample of university and Post graduate students

The current study aimed to uncover the correlation between Positive and Negative Affect and the personal need for Structure and health orientation among university students and Post Graduate, the differences between university students in the health orientation according to some demographic variables, the differences between high and low positive and negative ِAffect in the health orientation, and determine the predictive value of positive and negative ِAffects and the need The personal Structure to health, and the study participants were divided into: Participants in the exploratory study, which consisted of 141 male and female students at the university and graduate studies; To calculate the psychometric characteristics, and the basic study participants, who numbered 250 students in both the university and postgraduate levels, ranged between 21-35 years, with an average age of 24.69 years, a standard deviation of 4.11, an average monthly income of 2775 pounds, and a standard deviation of 2,191. applying the study tools, These are: The health orientation Scale; Snell ,Johnson, Lloyd & Hoover (1991) Translation & Validation via Ahmed Khairy Hafez, Fouad Muhammad AlDawash, Mustafa Abdel-Mohsen Al-Hudaibi (2020), and a Schedule of positive and negative Affects prepared by Watson, Clark, & Tellegen (1988)., And a measure of personal need for Structure by Thompson, Naccarato, Parker & Moskowitz (2001) Translation & Validation via Fouad Muhammad Al-Dawash, Mustafa Abdel-Mohsen Al-Hudaibi (2020).  The results of the study Showed that: in a positive correlation and health orientation as a whole with positive Affect, and was not Correlate to self-control and external health, and health Status, while negative Affect and health anxiety, health personal awareness , Evaluation, health confidence, attention to health perception, negative expectations of health, the general need for Structure and the dimensions of the health orientation and its overall degree, The dimension response of the lack of Structure correlated with the overall degree of health orientation and its sub-dimensions except for the self-control of health, and the overall degree of personal need for Structure was correlated with the dimensions of the health orientation and was not related to health motivation, external health control, health expectations, health Statues, and the absence of significant differences Statistically among the five taxonomic variables of the participants in the basic study on the scale of health orientation, the presence of statistically significant differences between high and low positive and negative Affect in the health orientation in favor of high positive and low positive Affect, and the presence of statistically significant differences between high and low personal need for Structure and two dimensions in the health orientation in favor of high The personal need for Structure, and the existence of a predictive ability statistically significant for the health orientation of positive and negative Affect and the personal need for Structure, and the results were interpreted in the light of the theoretical literature of study variables and related studies, and based on these results and their interpretation a number of recommendations have been formulated.
