The purposes of this study were to understand the health-promoting behavior of the adolescent with asthma, and to explore its associated factors. A cross-sectional design was done by convenience sampling at the out-patients pediatric allergy departments in a medical center and a regional teaching hospital in the northern Taiwan. In this study, constructive questionnaire and face-to-face interview were adopted to collect the data of 69 adolescents with asthma ranging in age from 12 to 18 years old. The results showed that the order of the health promoting behavior of adolescents with asthma was as the following: inter-personal support, life appreciation and stress management, nutrition and exercise, health responsibility and prevention on the attack of asthma behavior. Most of the health-promoting behaviors frequency was distributed between 30% and 70%. The higher frequency of carrying out health-promoting behavior for those adolescents with asthma who had more conscious about severity of asthma, doctor rated milder asthma and no absence during school period in past 12 months. We found that these three factors could explain 31.2% of the total variance on the health-promoting behavior by stepwise multiple regression analysis. The results of this study could provide guidelines for the health authority and health care professionals in adolescent's health-promoting behavior with asthma and development of health-promotion program.
