AbstractH1N1 has contributed to a significant number of fatalities in Malaysia. This study investigated the behaviour response and attitude of educated young adults towards their health. This study was conducted in the suburban territory. Hypothesis testing was completed using Chi-square and Fisher Exact test for categorical data to compare the differences in proportion. This study concluded that health seeking behaviour and behaviour changes among educated young adults in Malaysia should be improved. There was no strong predictor to indicate that difference in education background will grant positive difference in health seeking behaviour and behaviour changes with regard to H1N1 pandemic
