Abstract: Objective To understand the incidence and influencing factors of injury among college students in a certain university in Hunan Province,and provide suggestions for injury prevention and intervention. Methods In March 2022,a stratified cluster sampling method was used to select college students from a certain university in Hunan Province for a questionnaire survey. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of injury among college students. Results A total of 854 college students aged 17-24 were surveyed,including 441 male students(51.64%) and 413 female students(48.36%). 109 college students experienced injuries in the past 12 months,with an incidence rate of 15.11%. The top three causes of injuries were collision/fall injury(42.64%),fall injury(10.08%),and knife or sharp tool injury(9.30%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking(OR=3.656,95%CI:1.605-8.332),cold family relationships(OR=4.304,95%CI:1.306-14.190),parents working outside(OR=1.529,95%CI:1.002-2.336),and parents' education style of indulgence(OR=4.217,95%CI:1.159-15.339) were risk factors for injury among college students. Conclusion The injury incidence among university students in Hunan is higher.Healthy behaviors,good family environments and social support system might decrease the risk of injury in college students.
