Abstract

In this study, The 2016 Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey was used to determine if there was a difference in mental health according to the group's (Korea's Economic Vulnerability Group and Normal Groups) health behaviors. The subjects of the study were 367 economic vulnerability group and 708 normal groups, and data analysis was performed by two-way ANOVA. The results of the study are as follows. The results showed that there was statistically significant difference in the subjective health form (F = 6.181, P <.01), and no significant difference was found in the drinking, smoking, leisure physical activity and work physical activity. These results indicate that the mental health of the economic vulnerability group and the normal groups differ depending on the type of health that individuals think. This suggests that health care campaigns or programs that individuals perceive should be different for the economic vulnerability group.
