ΠΡΟΒΛΗΜΑΤΑ ΑΓΩΓΗΣ ΥΓΕΙΑΣ ΣΕ ΠΛΗΘΥΣΜΟ ΣΧΟΛΙΚΗΣ ΗΛΙΚΙΑΣ

THE SCHOOL HEALTH EDUCATION IN GREECE IS CHARACTERISED BY A SERIOUS LACK OF MODERN PEDAGOGICAL METHODS AND HAS FOCUSED ON RESTRICTED CONCEPTS, WHICH ARE REFERED TO PHYSIOLOGY AND HUMAN ANATOMY. THE COURSES OF HEALTH EDUCATION ARE GIVEN FOR BOTH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION PUPILS, THESE ARE BASED ON A TRADITIONAL AND OLD FASHIONED APPROACH WITH A GREAT LACK OF INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES AND COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION. IN AN ATTEMPT TO EVALUATE THE KNOWLEDGE OF SCHOOLCHILDREN ABOUT HEALTH, THREE INDICATORS OF KNOWLEDGE MEASURING THE CORRECT THE PERCEIVED AND THE ACCURATE KNOWLEDGE, WERE APPRECIATED. THE INDICATOR OF CORRECT KNOWLEDGE SHOWS THAT THE SCHOOL CHILDREN ARE TEND TO BE AWARE OF THE ISSUES OF PREVENTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL HYGIENE WHICH ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THEIR REACHING CURRICULUM. THE CONCEPTS OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY ALTHOUGH THEY ARE BOTH TOUGHT IN THE CURRICULUM AND LESS WELL KNOWN BY THE SCHOOL CHILDREN. ALL INDICATORS WERE CORRELATED WITH VARIOUS SOCIOECONOMIC VARIABLES AND AFTER THE USE OF A REGRESSION ANALYSIS, IT WAS FOUND OUT THAT THE EDUCATIONAL LEVEL OF THE FATHER AND HIS PROFESSION WERE INFLUENCING THE LEVEL OF SCHOOL CHILDREN. SOME OTHER VARIABLES SUCH AS MOTHER'S PROFESSION, REGION OF THE SCHOOL AND FAMILY SIZE, WERE ALSO INCLUDED IN THE SPECIFIED MODELS.
