[Level of health knowledge in children completing elementary education].
The results are presented of an inquiry study carried out in children in the 8th classes of elementary schools and considerable differences were found in the levels of practical health knowledge related to sex, urban and rural environment. Differences were found also related to the educational level of the parents. A correlation was demonstrated between the health knowledge level and the progress made in school, behaviour in school, and declared level of the child's adaptation to school and domestic environment. The equivocal effect of health knowledge level on the declared health behaviour is discussed.
