Abstract (English): Many post-secondary institutions contain organizational values, which describe enduring beliefs that support strategic priorities and guide members of an organization. Relatedly, the adoption of health-promoting frameworks calls on embedding health within post-secondary institutions’ core values. The study objective was to map Canada’s post-secondary values to determine how health is integrated within value statements. Mixed methods were used to map institutional values, contextualize well-being, and identify thematic messages of health-related content contained within values. Most institutions espoused values (n = 64, 71%), yet only a small proportion of these institutions espoused health within their value statements (n = 7, 11%). Qualitative analysis revealed three thematic messages: (i) health as a descriptor for other institutional priorities, (ii) wellness broadly acknowledged or embedded within non-health values, and (iii) well-being as a core value or commitment. These novel findings suggest more institutions must embed health as a core value to demonstrate institutional commitment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (French): De nombreux établissements postsecondaires ont des valeurs organisationnelles, qui décrivent les croyances durables soutenant les priorités stratégiques et guidant les membres d’une organisation. Dans ce contexte, l’adoption de cadres de promotion de la santé nécessite l’intégration de la santé dans les valeurs principales des établissements postsecondaires. L’objectif de l’étude était de dresser une carte des valeurs des établissements d’enseignement postsecondaires du Canada afin de déterminer comment la santé est intégrée dans les énoncés de valeurs. Des méthodes mixtes ont été utilisées pour établir les valeurs institutionnelles, contextualiser le bien-être et identifier les messages thématiques liés à la santé dans les valeurs. La plupart des établissements ont adopté des valeurs (n = 64, 71 %), mais seule une petite proportion d’entre eux ont adopté la santé dans leurs déclarations de valeurs (n = 7, 11 %). L’analyse qualitative a révélé trois messages thématiques : (i) la santé est utilisée pour décrire d’autres priorités institutionnelles, (ii) le bien-être est souvent reconnu ou intégré dans des valeurs qui ne sont pas liées à la santé, et (iii) le bien-être est considéré en tant que valeur ou engagement principal. Ces résultats suggèrent que davantage d’établissements doivent intégrer la santé comme valeur fondamentale pour démontrer leur engagement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
