[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the effects of health promoting education program on self-efficacy, health promoting behavior, and quality of life of Korean middle-aged women. [Participants and Methods] Participants were total 60 women (experimental: n=30, control: n=30) in the age group of 40-59, who visit community center located at G gu in Seoul. Health promoting education program was performed for 6 weeks, once a week, one hour with 20 minute group discussion. A study questionnaire was designed to measure the general characteristics, self-efficacy, health promoting behavior, and quality of life. [Results] Self-efficacy, health promoting behavior, and quality of life of middle-aged women were significantly improved in experimental group compared to the control group. [Conclusion] Health promoting education program can be utilized as an effective public health intervention in community. It would be appropriate as an addition to the public health policy for middle-aged women in community.
