Since its discovery, AIDS has seriously threaten human health, economic development and social security. Undergraduates students in China, one focus of AIDS prevention and treatment, are at high risk of HIV infection. Their knowledge of AIDS, attitude toward the disease and behavior are closely related to the epidemiological trend of AIDS in China. In view of this, this paper discusses the health education strategies on AIDS in colleges and universities, with a view to providing the relevant work references.

AIDS is spreading faster and faster in China. Strengthening health education is an important way to prevent the spread of AIDS, and is also the main means to control the growth of AIDS population. From the current situation of health education on prevention and treatment of AIDS among adolescents, there are still many problems, which is also the main reason for the increase of AIDS infected young students year by year. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate corresponding solutions to the problems existing in the current health education on AIDS prevention and control among adolescents, so as to further improve the effectiveness of AIDS prevention and control education for adolescents, strengthen the health education for adolescents, and reduce the HIV infection rate of adolescents.

Three typical areas of application of behavioural medicine are described: biofeedback, relaxation training, and various cognitive behavioural procedures. It is argued that biofeedback has led to few useful clinical treatments but both relaxation and more complex procedures and methods of analysis can contribute to the prevention and treatment of disease. This is illustrated with examples from the literature on headache and the prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease and cancer.

Background: The influence of mass media on emotions, subjective well-being and behaviours in society should be clearly understood. Physical-health education has an important role to play as a preventive tool. The aim of this study was to develop an explanatory model regarding the relationships between mass media, psychological well-being, physical activity, Mediterranean diet and age and to compare the model with multi-group analysis according to gender. Methods: A descriptive, non-experimental, cross-sectional design was used, with 634 participants between 18 and 66 years old (M = 35.18 ± 9.68). Results: Structural equation modeling was found to be satisfactory for all parameters. Results show that mass media have a significant direct influence on well-being, with negative effects on physical activity and adherence to a Mediterranean diet. The model fitted better for males in terms of gender differences, showing a better fit of psychological well-being being associated with higher levels of physical activity and better adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Among women, no relationships were found between mass media pressure and psychological well-being and healthy physical habits, but higher personal satisfaction was associated with better physical activity and better dietary patterns. Conclusions: Thus, the study approaches society to a perspective influenced by mass media and physical-health education, reporting and emphasizing the importance of healthy lifestyles.
