The "National Students Physical Fitness and Health Standards" launched and implemented, is not only a significant system for physical fitness and health evaluation, but also an essential means of incentive and education. It aims at encouraging the development of students'physical fitness and health, stimulating students to participate in physical exercise and cultivating students'lifelong physical exercise habit through carrying out the physical fitness and health evaluation. Whether the influence of the physical fitness and health evaluation on the collage students'physical exercise behavior intention correlates with the effect of that on the collage students'physical exercise behavior habit? What is the mechanism of action for the influence of the physical fitness and health evaluation on college students'physical exercise behavior intention and behavior habit? What sort of comprehensive effects do the elements of the mechanism of action bring? Research on the forgoing issues can present behavior effect evaluation with respect to the influence of the physical fitness and health evaluation on stimulating students'participation in physical exercise, together with providing theory basis for better applying the physical fitness and health evaluation to the promotion of the health behavior education and intervention in the filed of school physical education.Currently, the researches on the college students'physical fitness and health focus on the direction of "What factors-influence on physical fitness", which can well explain what factors will influence college students'physical fitness and heath, but fail to give a good explanation for the issue of "the physical fitness and heath evaluation-how to influence the health behavior". With the aid of literature analysis and based on the Health Belief Model, this thesis puts forward research hypothesize from the perspective of "the physical fitness and heath evaluation-how to influence the health behavior" and adopts structural equation to construct validation model. The main conclusions are as follows:The "Physical Fitness-Health Belief Scale" enjoys good reliability and validity and therefore can be applied in the investigation and evaluation of college students'physical fitness-health belief.In the physical fitness-health belief model,"the physical fitness and health evaluation result concerns" is affected by the variables "perception of the seriousness of disease and physical weakness","conditions of constitution and susceptibility to diseases" and "perception of exercise benefits". In which, the variable "perception of exercise benefits" has the most significant influence on the variable "the physical fitness and health evaluation result concerns"Among the factors affecting the variable "self-efficiency of Physical fitness and health evaluation","the physical fitness and health evaluation result concerns" and the "perception of exercise benefits" have direct impact on the "self-efficiency of Physical fitness and health evaluation", while the "conditions of constitution and susceptibility to diseases" and the "perception of the seriousness of disease and physical weakness" impose indirect impact on the "self-efficiency of Physical fitness and health evaluation"With the "self-efficiency of Physical fitness and health evaluation" as a medium, each factor of the physical fitness-health belief model impose indirect impact on the physical exercise "Behavior Intention" and "Behavior Habit", which in an empirical manner supports the research hypothesis that "self-efficiency medium exists in the physical fitness-health belief model"The model relating to the correlation of physical fitness-health belief and physical exercise behavior achieves good fitting effect. The hierarchy relation between each physical health belief variable in the model and physical exercise behavior intention and behavior habit are reasonable. The model enjoys excellent explanatory power.
