Abstract

Health risk behaviors are public health problems which are of concern in occupational therapy because they tend to be the causes of disability and death among adolescents and youths in the world. Identifying risk factors related to health risk behaviors is therefore an important part of health promotion. The main aim of this thesis was to investigate the prevalence of health risk behaviors and the association with leisure boredom among high school adolescents in Lagos State, Nigeria.
