This study aimed to investigate the relationship between mental health and health risk behaviors of college students and to verify that depression has mediating effects in the relation between perceived stress and health risk behaviors. Data were obtained from the 2015 Community Health Survey conducted nationally, and the subjects of this study were 8,422 college students ranging in age from 19 to 29. Rao-Scott Chi-square test, logistic regression analysis, and Sobel test were used for data analysis. The results of the study showed that perceived stress, depression, present smoking, binge drinking, and high risk drinking of college students were associated with sex, age, and monthly household income. Smoking, binge drinking and high-risk drinking were affected by perceived stress, and depression was an influence factor of current smoking and binge drinking. Depression showed partial mediating effect between perceived stress and current smoking and between perceived stress and binge drinking. Such results suggest that a comprehensive behavioral health intervention strategy that covers mental health care of college students is necessary.

A total of 5,597 Korean subjects aged 20-64 years were analyzed using the KNHANES 2013-2015. Among the subjects, 41.1% of males and 5.5% of females were smokers, and risk of developing metabolic syndrome in smokers was significantly increased in men with age, alcohol, physical activity, obesity, and sleep(aOR 1.785, 95% CI 1.004-3.174), whereas it was not significantly higher in women. As a result of analyzing the difference of average nutrient intake according to smoking and metabolic syndrome, the energy, retinol and vitamin C intake were significant when age and gender were corrected in the smoker and metabolic syndrome group. In this study, we found that smoking behavior and metabolic syndrome were related to nutrient intake which requires a national level of lifestyle intervention for the prevention and management of metabolic syndrome.

Result: $0.6\%$ of nurses were current smokers $40.7\%$ of nurses have attended smoking cessation education. Nurses who were older, had masters degree, had oncology experience, higher position, participated in smoking cessation education, and had smoking related disease among family members were variables related to higher frequencies in delivering tobacco interventions. Conclusion: Although nurses are in an important position in delivering tobacco interventions and provide resources, their participation in consistent delivery of an intervention is less than desirable.
