The sample included 84 risk population groups individuals with Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension living in Phromloke tambon, Phrom Khiri district, Nakhon Si Thammarat province. Using multi - stage sampling, the participants were divided in to an experimental group (n = 42) and a control group (n = 42).The experimental group received a program of the 3 self health behavior modification while the control group received regular attention but with no interventions. Results were evaluated in week 12 with the data analysis using descriptive statistics, the chi - square test, paired and independent t - test. The results showed that after the 12<sup>th</sup> week of the experiment, the experimental group had a significant reduction in blood glucose, blood pressure and waist circumference statistically significant lower than before the experiment (p&lt;.05). Comparing the experimental group and the control group, the mean blood glucose level and blood pressure of the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group (p&lt;.05); however, the mean waist circumference was not significantly different (p&gt;0.05). Recommendations: This study suggested that of health behavior modification program should be compared, applying the concept of 3 self to other health behavior modification models. And should be extended through other risk groups of diabetes mellitus and hypertension in the area. By studying the long - term performance.</p> ER -
