The purpose of this study was to examine characteristics of life style and health-status of male students at a National College of Technology. A questionnaire consisting of 75 items on life style and health-status was administered to 581 healthy male students aged 15 to 20 years. The frequencies and proportions for each item were computed, and the proportion-differences were examined using one-way analysis of variance. Quite a few students have some exercise habit, and they exercise more than three or four days in a week and/or more than ninety minutes at a time. Many students have regular dietary habits, but have likes and dislikes for food, between-meal snacks, and midnight snacks. Many of them do not take care of nutritional balance and eat meat, fish, meat substitutes, and a confectionery more than three or four times in a week. The ratio of those drinkingj uice 3-4 times or more every day is high. Many students have club activities, housework, and a part-time job after school. It is not unusual for them to go to bed at midnight 0-1 o'clock and rise at 7-8 o'clock. There are many students whose degree of subjective health is low. Care for illness and injury is a problem. Participation in outdoor physical activity and club activities are more less likely than when they were in childhood and junior high school, and there are some students who suffer from some disease. Guidance regarding meal intake, the importance of nutritional balance, rules of life style, and consideration to health may be important for male students at the National College of Technology.
