Abstract
This study examined the frequency of health communication of Gibi Gubae Students of AAU in
the teachings of Mahibere Kidusan. Two hundred fifty five students have participated after being
selected randomly. A five point Linkert Scale of health communication was used. Logistic
regression was used to analyze dichotomous variables of health-related factors. Independent
sample t-test and chi square tests were applied to investigate the difference between male-female
students in Mahibere Kidusan. There is no significant difference between male and female on the
healthy style of life score. The proportion of males who responded to prevalence of health
communication is not significantly different from the proportion of females. Therefore, it is
recommended that health Communication in Mahibere Kidusan should be continuous and
encouraged.
