dc.description.abstract	Logistic regression was conducted to determine the relative influence of professional advice, social influencers and self-efficacy on university students’ health capital. The results demonstrated that students with high levels of self-efficacy were seven times more likely to have high levels of health capital. Social influences and professional health advisors were not statistically significant. This has implications for health promotion by universities and health agencies concerned about the wellbeing of university students and future citizens.	en_CA
