In the first stage, the researcher tried to identify the most commonly used behavioral models of students based on contemporary theories of motivation for academic achievement.

Then, the researcher, using a deductive approach and with the help of detailed analysis techniques, selected the most appropriate items for each behavioral model. In the second stage, the researcher, by adopting a deductive approach while analyzing the structure of the developed tool, provided evidence in defense of the technical characteristics of the validity and reliability of the tool. The results of confirmatory factor analysis based on AMOS software showed that multidimensional structure of academic health facilitating behaviors including academic optimism, academic engagement, …, as well as multidimensional structure of disincentive behaviors such as learned helplessness, avoidance of seeking help, academic procrastination, …, and perfectionism with data were shown to fit well. In addition, the results of the common variance of the multiple forms of facilitating and preventing of educational health with emotions of academic achievement, academic self-efficacy and perceived academic stress showed that the health-oriented lifestyle questionnaire has constructive validity.
