Health engagement refers to the active participation of individuals in managing their health and healthcare, encompassing behaviors such as seeking information, making informed decisions, and collaborating with healthcare providers.

To measure the relationship between young people's health engagement and affective relations, researchers can use:

Surveys: Utilize standardized questionnaires to assess levels of health engagement and the quality of affective relationships (e.g., emotional support, trust).

Interviews: Conduct qualitative interviews to explore personal experiences and perceptions of how relationships influence health engagement.

Correlation analysis: Analyze quantitative data to identify correlations between health engagement scores and measures of affective relations, determining the strength and direction of the relationship.
