【 摘 要 】

The promotion of health and well-being is a long-standing goal of scientific inquiries. The World Health Organization mission incorporates not only the absence of disease but also an integrative perspective on social, physical, and mental well-being (1). The National Institutes of Health goals are intimately focused on protecting and improving health through funding research and facilitating programs that promote public health (2). Healthy People is an example of a broadly focused, long-range strategic initiative that incorporates results from scientific inquiry into health promotion recommendations (3). Therefore, scientific strategies to understand, describe, and predict health-related issues are important steps in the process of promoting health and welfare.
