Sumario: | This article investigated the association between self-rated health and the socioeconomic,demographic, physical, emotional, behavioral, and academic characteristics of students in the Pharmacy course at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. We used Data from the research Evaluation of the profile of students in the undergraduate course in Pharmacy at the Federal University of Minas Gerais, developed by the Structural Teaching Center (NDE). Health perception was measured using a scale that ranged from 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst health condition and 100 being the best possible health condition. The sample of 273 students was analyzed using the statistical technique called CART (Classification and Regression Tree). The general average of the health scale was 70.6 and the standard deviation was 20.13. A positive association was observed between the behavioral characteristics, the physical, and emotional aspects experienced by the students and the health scale. The factors most strongly associated with the students' health scale were sex and having or not having a job, in that order of intensity. |
