Despite the large number of studies on the issue of psychological and pedagogical security of educational environment, the sphere of higher education still remains underexplored. The available empiric material has not received sufficient methodological justification and conceptualization. This article aims to provide the conceptualization of the risk category as applied to the educational environment of a higher education institution, as well as empiric investigation of the risks within the educational environment as viewed by applicants and students.Materials and methods. 213 applicants and 547 students of the Kuban State Technological University took part in the survey. The following investigation methods were used: expert assessment, interview, questioning, content analysis, analysis of means method, cluster analysis and factor analysis.Investigation results. Comparative examination of the manifestation degree of risks within the educational environment as viewed by applicants and students of higher education institution showed significant differences in the assessment of risk by these groups of respondents. From the point of view of applicants, the main risks are connected with social and psychological aspects of the educational environment of a higher education institution, relations within student groups and interaction with teachers, as well as with the issues related to the educational management and leisure arrangement. As viewed by the students, the risks within the educational environment include external and social and psychological risk factors, motivating risks and risks arising from the learning process organization and management and the related issues. Applicants’ notion of the risks within the educational environment of a higher education institution was mainly influenced by information they received from media and by the opinion of their relatives and age mates.Consideration and conclusions. It was proved that the applicants’ idea of the risks within the educational environment of a higher education institution is determined by the opinion of people they know personally, however it changes during the process of studying in higher education institution and acquiring their own experience of being within the environment. The investigation results allow creating a model of psychological and pedagogical security within the educational environment of a higher education institution. This model makes it possible to forecast main risks of the educational environment, their development, and evolvement and find solution to them.

A inatividade física é uns dos principais fatores de risco para desenvolvimento de complicações cardiovasculares, respiratórias e alterações degenerativas que se desenvolvem ao decorrer da vida e manifestam-se geralmente na fase de envelhecimento. Sendo assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar o nível de atividade física de acadêmicos jovens de fisioterapia de uma Instituição de Ensino Superior Privada no município de Fortaleza/CE. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com 91 estudantes. Para a coleta de dados foi utilizado o IPAQ – questionário internacional de atividade física. Os dados foram analisados a partir da estatística descritiva e inferencial através do software estatístico Microsoft Office Excel 2013. A amostra apresentou idade média de 23,85 ± 2,05 anos, predominantemente do gênero feminino, representando 76,92% (n = 70) e 54,94% (n = 50) dos alunos consideram-se pardos. A classificação do nível de atividade física como sedentário foi igual a 13,19% da amostra e muito ativo foi de 5,50%, havendo maior prevalência de indivíduos insuficientemente ativos (70,33%). Conclui-se que os acadêmicos não praticam nenhuma atividade física e/ ou não seguem as recomendações de tempo gasto em atividades moderadas e intensas e que um número pequeno de indivíduos ativos é insuficientemente ativo. Com isso, uma mudança nos hábitos em relação a prática regular de atividade física deve ser implementada para prevenir doenças que se manifestam ao longo da vida LEVEL OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF YOUNG PHYSIOTHERAPY STUDENTS FROM A PRIVATE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION IN FORTALEZA, CEARÁPhysical inactivity is one of the major risk factors for developing cardiovascular and respiratory complications as well as degenerative changes that usually manifest in the aging phase. Thus, the present study aimed to analyze the physical activity level of young physiotherapy students from a Private Higher Education Institution in Fortaleza/CE. This is a cross-sectional study with 91 students. For data collection we used the IPAQ – international questionnaire of physical activity. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using the statistical software Microsoft Office Excel 2013. The sample had a mean age of 23.85 ± 2.05 years, predominantly female, representing 76.92% (n = 70) and 54.94% (n = 50) of the students consider themselves brown. Physical activity level was classified as sedentary to 13.19% and highly active to 5.50%, with a higher prevalence of insufficiently active individuals (70.33%). It is concluded that the students do not practice any physical activity and/ or do not follow the recommendations of time spent in moderate and intense activities and that a small number of active individuals is insufficiently active. Therefore, a change in habits in relation to the regular practice of physical activity should be implemented to prevent diseases that manifest throughout life.
