Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: College students are often still relatively young, making their mental health more likely to be overlooked. A healthy lifestyle is considered the key to preventing and controlling mental health problems nowadays. This study aimed to investigate whether health-promoting lifestyle approaches manage mental health among adolescent/young college students.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 187 adolescent/young college students at Babol Medical Science University, Babol, Iran. Characteristic demographics, health-promoting lifestyle profile (HPLP), and general health questionnaire-28(GHQ-28) were filled out by students. The data were analyzed using correlation coefficient and simple and multiple linear regressions.
RESULTS: The majority of participants were adolescents (66.8%), single (97.9%), and bachelor\'s students (70.1%). The mean of the HPLP and GHQ scores was 125.09±18.12, and 33.58±10.50, respectively. HPLP was a negative significant predictor of mental health (β = -.261, P= .0001). There was a negative significant association between HPLP dimensions (except physical activity) and mental health. After adjusting for other variables, there was a significant relationship between HPLP with mother occupation (β =.186, P=.038), and mother education (β = -.219, P= .034). Furthermore, gender (β = .175, P= .031), and occupation (β =-.157, P= .040) were predictors of GHQ in adolescent/young college students.
CONCLUSIONS: Regarding the health-promoting lifestyle situation among students and its relation with the better mental health, the design and implementation of HPLP education programs is recommended.

摘要：
目标：大学生往往还比较年轻，让他们的心理健康更容易被忽视。如今，健康的生活方式被认为是预防和控制心理健康问题的关键。这项研究旨在调查促进健康的生活方式是否可以管理青少年/青年大学生的心理健康。
方法：这项横断面研究是对巴博尔医科大学187名青少年/青年大学生进行的，巴博尔,伊朗。特征人口统计，促进健康的生活方式简介（HPLP），一般健康问卷-28(GHQ-28)由学生填写。使用相关系数以及简单和多元线性回归对数据进行分析。
结果：大多数参与者是青少年（66.8％），单身（97.9%），和学士学位学生（70.1%）。HPLP和GHQ评分的平均值分别为125.09±18.12和33.58±10.50。HPLP是心理健康的负显着预测因子（β=-.261，P=.0001）。HPLP维度（体力活动除外）与心理健康之间存在负相关。调整其他变量后，HPLP与母亲职业之间存在显着关系（β=0.186，P=0.038），和母亲教育(β=-.219，P=.034)。此外，性别（β=.175，P=.031），职业（β=-.157，P=.040）是青少年/青年大学生GHQ的预测因子。
结论：关于学生促进健康的生活方式及其与更好的心理健康的关系，建议设计和实施HPLP教育计划。
