ANALYZING THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS AND HEALTHY LIFE STYLE BEHAVIORS OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS

Abstract

Students can develop a life style that will negatively affect their health due to their leaving from the family environment they have been accustomed to, their being open to external effects and their making their own choices significantly in university years concurrent with their youth. It is also possible for the young to carry this life style into their life after their education at university. In the research, it was aimed to analyze the physical activity levels and healthy life style behaviors of the university students. 1260 out of 9264 students studying at the central campus were reached. In the research, anthropometric body measurements were performed to the experimental subjects, and physical activity and healthy life style behaviors scale were carried out, as well. When the data as result of the analysis were analyzed, 47,94% 604 students of the university students participated in the research were determined as male and 52,06% 656 students were determined as female. In the research, it was concluded that there has been a positive significant relationship below the average between the healthy life style behaviors and physical activity levels of the university students.
