N1 - Abstract The purpose of this research study is to examine the use of the Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services Use in predicting how health impacts the academic performance of college students through predisposing, enabling, and need factors. Participants: Data were collected from 428 college students attending a large university in the Southeast.

N2 - The purpose of this research study is to examine the use of the Andersen Behavioral Model of Health Services Use in predicting how health impacts the academic performance of college students through predisposing, enabling, and need factors. Participants: Data were collected from 428 college students attending a large university in the Southeast. Methods: Students answered questions about their demographic characteristics, health, healthcare use, and academics using a survey adapted from the 2018 National College Health Assessment (NCHA) II conducted by the American College Health Association (ACHA). Bivariate and multivariate statistical analyses were run on the data and summarized. Results: Enabling factors were more likely to predict health impact on academic performance, while predisposing factors were least likely to predict these impacts. Conclusion: Results indicate that the Andersen Model is a useful model for framing the relationship between health and academic performance among college students.
