AB  - Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of summer on body composition, perceived stress and body awareness in young female and male university students. Methods: A total of 130 students (77 females, 53 males) aged between 18 and 26 years without any health complaints participated in the study. Body composition, stress level, body awareness and physical activity level of the participants were evaluated before the summer season in May-June and after the summer season in September-October. Bioelectrical impedance analysis, perceived stress scale, body awareness questionnaire and international physical activity scale were used for these assessments, respectively.Results: Statistical analysis revealed a statistically significant decrease in perceived stress, basal metabolic rate and cellular mass analyses in both sexes when the values before and after the summer season were compared (p

N2  - Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, genç kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencilerinde yaz mevsiminin vücut kompozisyonu, algılanan stres ve vücut farkındalığı üzerindeki etkisini araştırmaktır. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya 18-26 yaş aralığında, herhangi bir sistemik hastalığı veya sağlık şikâyeti olmayan 77 kadın 53 erkek olmak üzere toplam 130 öğrenci katıldı. Katılımcıların yaz mevsimi öncesi Mayıs-Haziran aylarında ve yaz mevsimi sonrası Eylül-Ekim aylarında vücut kompozisyonu, stres düzeyi, vücut farkındalığı ve fiziksel aktivite düzeyi değerlendirildi. Bu değerlendirmeler için sırasıyla biyoelektriksel impedans analizi, algılanan stres ölçeği, vücut farkındalık anketi ve uluslararası fiziksel aktivite ölçeği kullanıldı.Bulgular: İstatistiksel analiz sonucunda yaz mevsimi öncesi ve sonrası değerler karşılaştırıldığında, her iki cinsiyette algılanan stres, bazal metabolizma hızı ve hücresel kütlesel analizlerde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir azalma saptandı (p
