    Aim. To identify population groups with multiple hazardous health behaviors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in order to enable more focused planning of CVD prevention actions in Slovenia. Methods. ... The data originate from the national survey on the health behavior of 15,379 adults aged 25-64, which was carried out in 2001. The overall response rate of the mailed questionnaire was64%, with 9,043 questionnaires being eligible for anaylisis. Estimates of prevalence of observed outcome-multiple hazardous health behaviors for CVD (atleast two out of four observed: unhealthy nutrition, smoking, physical inactivity, and heavy alcohol drinking) were assessed for each population subgroup regarding sex, age, education level, employment status, social class (self-clasification), type ofresidence community and geographical region, whereas the strength of association between the occurrence of observed out come and each of selected risk factors was roughly (univariately) estimated using chi-square test. Binary multiple logistic regression was used to determine the adjusted impact of the above-mentioned characteristics on the prevalence of observed outcome. Results. The highest odds for two or more hazardous health behaviors for CVD were registered in men (ORmen vs women=1.89, p<0.0005), aged 30-39 years (OR30-39 vs 60-64=1.71, p<0.0005), participants with the lowest education level (ORuncompleted primary vs university education=2.76, p<0.0005), unemployed participants (ORunemployed vspensioner/disability pensioner=1.51, p=0.003), participants self-classified in the lowest social class (ORlower vs middle upper/upper class=1.72, p=0.012); residents of urban communities (ORurban vs rural residence community=1.43, p<0.005) and participants from the Eastern geographical regionof Slovenia (OREastern vs Western=1.24, p=0.003).
