STRESZCZENIE
Streszczenie: Wczesna dorosłość stanowi kluczowy okres kształtowania zachowań zdrowotnych oraz wzorców zdrowia psychicznego, które wpływają na dobrostan w późniejszym życiu. Celem badania było określenie różnic związanych z wiekiem w zakresie motywacji do aktywności fizycznej, nawyków żywieniowych oraz poziomu dystresu psychicznego, aby wesprzeć opracowanie skutecznych strategii profilaktycznych w ciągu życia. Materiał i metody: Przeprowadzono badanie przekrojowe wśród młodych dorosłych (18-39 lat) oraz dorosłych w wieku średnim (40-65 lat). Zastosowano kwestionariusze oceniające motywację wewnętrzną i zewnętrzną do zachowań prozdrowotnych, poziom dystresu psychicznego oraz samoocenę stylu życia. Wyniki: Młodzi dorośli wykazywali istotnie wyższy poziom dystresu psychicznego niż osoby w wieku średnim. Nie stwierdzono jednak istotnych różnic w poziomie motywacji wewnętrznej do zachowań prozdrowotnych między badanymi grupami. Wnioski: Uzyskane wyniki wskazują, że sama motywacja nie wyjaśnia różnic w zachowaniach zdrowotnych pomiędzy grupami wiekowymi. Konieczne jest uwzględnienie dodatkowych czynników psychospołecznych i środowiskowych przy projektowaniu ukierunkowanych działań profilaktycznych.
