About Behaviors - Seniors

Top State(s): Vermont: 1.366

Bottom State(s): West Virginia: -1.670

Definition: Sum of weighted z-scores of ranked Senior Report behaviors measures

Data Source and Years(s): America's Health Rankings composite measure, 2025

Suggested Citation: America's Health Rankings analysis of America's Health Rankings composite measure, United Health Foundation, AmericasHealthRankings.org, accessed 2026.

The Behaviors category represents practices that impact health and are influenced by individual, community, system and policy factors. Topics in this category are Sleep Health, Smoking and Tobacco Use, and Nutrition and Physical Activity. Some of the measures in this category include insufficient sleep, smoking and physical inactivity.

Behaviors is one of five categories of measures used in the America’s Health Rankings model. The other four categories are Social and Economic Factors, Physical Environment, Clinical Care and Health Outcomes. This model is built upon the World Health Organization’s definition of health: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” The model reflects that determinants of health directly influence health outcomes.
