Health vocational students are generally in the late adolescent phase, aged 17-21 years, which implicitly acts as a role model for healthy individuals. Quality of life in adolescents is influenced by various factors including physical health, psychological health, self-perception, parental relationships, finance, environment, and social relationships.
