Abstract

Background and aims: Violence is recognized as a significant public health problem throughout the world. The present study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of violence-related behaviors and its relationship with other risky behaviors, Family support, and Religiosity among Students in Bushehr. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on a total of 977 Students in Bushehr city, southern Iran, in 2016. Required data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire on violence-related behaviors and other risky behaviors. The validity of the questionnaire was measured by MPH Students with a Cronbach’ s alpha of 0. 90. Additionally, Family support scale and religious belief questionnaire were applied. Data analysis was performed using chi-square, t test, and logistic regression model in SPSS version 16. 0. Results: The overall prevalence rates of weapon carrying and physical fighting were reported to be 9. 1% and 7. 1%, respectively. The findings of this study revealed that hookah use (OR: 2. 93), physical fight (OR: 5. 64), and having unsafe sex (OR: 2. 42) were associated with weapon carrying (P < 0. 001). Moreover, male gender (OR: 3. 36), illicit drug use (OR: 3. 64), weapon carrying (OR: 5. 24), and Family support (OR: 0. 97) were shown to be associated with physical fight (P < 0. 001). Conclusion: The results of the present study suggested co-occurrence nature of risky behaviors. Given the high prevalence of violence-related behaviors, the implementation of preventive interventions for college Students is of great importance.
