Investigation of Nutrition and Exercise Behaviors in Fırat University Sports Sciences Students

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to examine the nutrition and exercise behaviors of students at Fırat University’s Faculty of Sport Sciences. This research aims to evaluate the level of students' dietary and physical activity habits.Methods: A relational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The study population consisted of students from Fırat University, and the sample included a total of 120 students (62 male, 58 female) studying at the Faculty of Sport Sciences during the 2024–2025 academic year. Data were collected using a "Demographic Information Form" and the "Nutrition and Exercise Behavior Scale." Data analysis was conducted using the SPSS 22 software program, with a significance level set at p 0.05. Percentages, frequencies, Independent Samples T-Test, and ANOVA tests were applied.Results: The results showed that male students scored higher than female students, with the highest scores observed in the unhealthy eating sub-dimension (p0.05). Additionally, students who were taller scored higher than other groups, and height was found to have a significant effect only on the meal regularity sub-dimension (p=0.027). It was observed that taller individuals had more regular meal habits. it was determined that there was no statistically significant difference in the Nutrition and Exercise Behaviors sub-dimensions based on the weight variable (p0.05).Conclusion: It was determined that the nutritional habits of sport sciences students were at a moderate level and male students had better nutritional habits than female students. It is recommended that education programs related to nutrition should be increased for the students of the Faculty of Sports Sciences.Keywords: Exercise Behaviors, Nutrition, Exercise, Student
