The most dominant indicator in the lifestyle variable was routine check-ups (0.943 > 0.70 (loading factor)), while the main indicator in the patient health variable was uric acid levels with a loading factor value of 0.830. The Composite Reliability value for lifestyle variables (0.856) and patient health (0.861) > 0.7, indicating a reliable instrument, and the Average Variance Extracted value of 0.750 and 0.675 > 0.50, respectively, indicating that convergent validity is met. The results show that lifestyle has a positive and significant effect on the health of hypertension and DM patients (t-statistic = 11.951 > 1.96; p-value = 0.000 < 0.05; original sample = 0.774).]]>
