Background and Study Aim. The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between leisure satisfaction, physical activity levels and healthy life-style behaviors of sport science students during the COVID-19 pandemic in distance education. Material and Methods. In total, 218 sport science students participated in this study voluntarily. The short form of International Physical Activity Questionnaire was administered for the determination of physical activity level of distance education students. Their physical activity levels were categorized as inactive, minimally active, and physically active by using Metabolic Equivalent Term method. Health-promoting Life-style Profile Questionnaire was used with self-actualization, health responsibility, exercise, nutrition, interpersonal support, and stress management subscales. The leisure satisfaction scale was administered for the determination of leisure satisfaction. Results. Results of Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Analyses indicated that there were positive significant correlations between “HLSB” and three sub-dimensions of “IPAQ” (MIA, VIA and Total). It was found positive correlation between “HLSB” and all sub-dimensions of “LSS” (Psychological, Educational, Social, Relaxation, Physiological and Aesthetical). Also, a significant positive correlation was found between four sub-dimensions of “LSS” (Social, Relaxation, Physiological and Aesthetical) and one sub-dimensions of “IPAQ” (W). It was observed that one sub-dimensions of “LSS” which is “Aesthetical”, and a positive correlation between all sub-dimensions of “IPAQ” was found. Conclusions. The findings of the present study indicated that healthy life-style behaviors were indicators of LSS and IPAQ and also aesthetical was found between IPAQ of sport science students.

Risk behaviors associated with life style may deliver in students´ health risk. Therefore, our objective is to describe health risk behaviors perceived by health area university students. For this a 14 item survey about risk behaviors related to physical activity practice, food consumption, drug use, stress level and sleep habits was applied in the health area students. 995 students were interviewed. Most were women (69%) with 20.1 + 1.8 years old. Of these women surveyed, twenty nine percent report no physical activity. Fifty one percent eat 5 fruit and vegetables 4 times/week or more. Only 30% drinks 2 L of water/day. Eighty two percent don’t smoke, 55% don’t drink alcohol and 90% don’t use drugs. Twelve percent reports to be on stress always and 72% sleep more than 7 hours/day only 3 times/week or less. This work concluded that university students of the Health Area don´t have the healthy life style that’s expected.

Sport and exercise focused research is reviewed stemming from a goal perspective model of motivation. It is suggested that this body of literature provides insight into the variability in physical activity patterns among girls and women. Further, evidence is presented which indicates that differences in the goal perspectives operating in the athletic setting relate to whether female athletic participation is health promotive or health endangering.

Aim: This study was conducted to examine healthy lifestyle behaviors and exercise behaviors of nursing students.Material and method: The sample of the descriptive study consisted of 317 students who were educated at the University of Health Sciences Faculty Nursing Department during the 2016-2017 school year and who agreed to participate in the research. Data were collected using via demografic characteristics questionnaire, Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale and Exercise Benefit/Barrier Scale. While the data were evaluated, percentage calculations, average measures, Kruskal Wallis test, Mann Whitney U test, One Way Anova and Student t test were used.Results: It was determined that the mean score of the students' Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale as 130,69±19,22. It was found that the highest scores were obtained from spiritual development sub-dimension (26,19±4,31) while the lowest scores were obtained from the physical activity sub-dimension (17,38±5,16) of the scale. It was determined that the mean score of the students' Exercise Benefit/Barrier Scale as 127,82±15,12, mean score of the benefit sub-dimension as 90,35±12,19 and the mean score of the barrier sub-dimension as 37,47±5,96. It was determined that there was a moderate correlation between the exercise benefit scores and the physical activity scores of the students, which was 41% in the positive direction.Conclusion: It was determined that the students' healthy life style behaviors were middle level and their exercise benefits perceptions  were high level. Physical activity behaviors of students were found to increase as the exercise benefit perception of them increased. In the direction of the results obtained from the research, in order to make the nursing students a good role model for the society, emphasizing the healthy lifestyle behaviours, especially nutrition, physical activity and stress management, from which they have received lower points, within the academic curriculums and trying to eliminate the perceived obstacles by attempting to improve the exercise benefit perceptions may be suggested. Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file.ÖzetAmaç: Çalışma, öğrenci hemşirelerin sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışları ile egzersiz davranışlarının incelenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.Materyal Metot: Tanımlayıcı tipteki araştırmanın örneklemini, bir üniversitenin Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi Hemşirelik Bölümü’nde Bölümü’nde 2016-2017 yıllarında öğrenim öğrenim gören ve araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 317 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Araştırma verileri; Tanıtıcı Özellikler Formu, Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği ve Egzersiz Yarar/Engel Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Veriler değerlendirilirken, yüzdelik hesapları, ortalama ölçütleri, One Way Anova, Student t testi,  Mann Whitney U testi ve Kruskal Wallis testi kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Öğrencilerin Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamasının 130,69±19,22 olduğu, manevi gelişim alt boyut (26,19±4,31) puan ortalamasının en yüksek,  fiziksel aktivite alt boyut (17,38±5,16)  puan ortalamasının ise en düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir. Öğrencilerin Egzersiz Yarar/Engel Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 127,82±15,12, yarar alt ölçeği puan ortalaması 90,35±12,19, engel alt ölçeği puan ortalaması ise 37,47±5,96 olarak bulunmuştur. Öğrencilerin egzersiz yarar puanları ile fiziksel aktivite puanları arasında pozitif yönde %41 oranında orta düzeyde ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır.Sonuç: Çalışmada öğrenci hemşirelerin sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışlarının orta düzeyde olduğu, egzersiz yarar algılarının yüksek olduğu ve öğrencilerin egzersiz yarar algıları arttıkça fiziksel aktivite davranışlarının da arttığı saptanmıştır. Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin, topluma iyi bir rol model olabilmeleri için başta beslenme, stres yönetimi ve fiziksel aktivite gibi düşük puan aldıkları alt ölçek alanlarına müfredat programlarında ağırlık verilmesi ve egzersiz yarar algılarını geliştirilmeye çalışılarak algılanan engelleri ortadan kaldırma girişimleri önerilebilir.
