Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between locus of control (LOC) and oral health promoting behavior of dental college students.
Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used, in which a survey was carried out on 144 dental college students attending WUniversity in Iksan. The locus of control was measured by using the scale of Rotter. The items of oral health promoting behavior (OHPB) were measured by the 4-points Likert scale.
Results: There was positive correlation between OHPB scores and LOC (p=0.013). When the LOC points of dental college students were higher, interest in self oral health status appeared to be higher. Also, they seemed to think that school oral examination was efficient for dental disease prevention. In addition, those who had higher LOC points were more likely to brush their teeth before sleep and less likely to eat snacks. The LOC showed statistically significant correlation with the time lag from recent dental treatment. The LOC scores of dental college students were different depending on the grade.
Conclusion:The stronger internal LOC was related to better oral health promoting behavior for dental college students.
