Collected data were analyzed by t, x2, Kendal tau, Pearson correlation, Stepwise Multiple Regression. The results of this study were as follows. 1. There were a significant difference in shift pattern(x2=7.89, P=0.005) and career. (x2=12.99, P=0.005) between normal weight and overweight group. 2. The average score of performance in health promoting behavior among overweight group(2.55) was higher than that of normal weight group(2.46), but not significant. 3.

The average score of the perceived barrier of in overweight group(2.44) was significant higher than that of normal group(2.24). 6. Health promoting behaviors in overweight group was significantly correlated with health status(r=.384, P<.05), health Concept(r= 458, P<.01) self-efficacy ( r=352, P< 01), perceived benefit(r=.386, P< .05), perceived barrier(r= -245, P< .05) Health promoting behavior in normal weight group was significantly correlated with health concept( r= .307, P< .050 and perceived benefit. 7.
