Covid-19 Pandemi Sürecinde Üniversite Öğrencilerinin Fiziksel Aktivite, Yaşam Kalitesi ve Depresyon Seviyelerinin İncelenmesi
Abstract
Amaç:Düzenli fiziksel aktivitenin yaşam biçimi haline getirilmesinde en kritik dönemlerden biri üniversite yıllarıdır. Özellikle içinde bulunduğumuz pandemi süreci,üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivitelerinin daha da azalmasına sebep olmaktadır. Bu araştırmada, üniversite öğrencilerinin pandemi sürecindeki fiziksel aktivite seviyelerinin, yaşam kalitelerinin ve depresyon seviyelerinin durumlarını anlamak ve fiziksel aktivitenin sağlık üzerine etkileri dikkate alındığında, başta üniversite öğrencilerinde olmak üzere, fiziksel aktivite seviyelerinin önemini vurgulamak amaçlanmıştır.
Çalışma Planı:Araştırmaya çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 332 gönüllü üniversite öğrencisi,online sorgulama formunu doldurarak katılmıştır.Üniversite öğrencilerine online anket form doldurma yöntemi aracılığı ile Covid-19 pandemisi öncesinde düzenli olarak fiziksel aktivite yapıp yapmadıkları, yapıyorlarsa pandemi sürecinin ne kadar etkilediği, şu anki fiziksel aktivite, yaşam kalitesi ve depresyon seviyeleri sorgulanmıştır. Fiziksel aktivite seviyeleri; Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi ile, yaşam kaliteleri; Kısa Form-36 ile, depresyon düzeyleri; Beck Depresyon Ölçeği ile değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular:Araştırmadan elde edilen sonuçlara göre, pandemi sürecinde öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite miktarları ortalama 1763.57 ± 1135.41 MET-dk/hafta olduğu, %30.7’sinin fiziksel olarak aktif olmadığı, %48.5’inin fiziksel aktivite düzeyinin düşük olduğu ve %20.8’inin de fiziksel aktivite düzeyinin sağlığını korumak için yeterli olduğu saptanmıştır. Bireylerin yaşam kalitesi puanları incelendiğinde, fiziksel sağlık skorunun ortalaması 54.78 ± 5.89, mental sağlık skorunun ortalaması ise 47.12 ± 9.83 olduğu bulunurken, depresyon ölçüm sonuçları 16.03 ± 7,94 idi.
Sonuç: Sonuç olarak; pandemi sürecinde üniversite öğrencilerinde fiziksel aktivite düzeyinin oldukça düşük olduğu ve bu süreçte öğrencilerin depresyon ve yaşam kalitesi seviyelerinin olumsuz yönde etkilendiği belirlendi.

Investigation of Physical Activity, Quality of Life and Depression Levels of University Students During the Covid-19 Pandemic Process
Abstract
Purpose:The most critical periods in making regular physical activity a lifestyle is university years. The process we are in causes university students to decrease their physical activities even more. The aim of this study was to understand the status of physical activity levels, quality of life and depression levels of university students during the pandemic process and considering the effects of physical activity on health, it was aimed to emphasize the importance of physical activity levels.
Patients and Methods:332 volunteer university students who accepted to participate in the study participated by filling out the online questionnaire form filling method. With the online questionnaire filling method, university students were questioned whether they did physical activity regularly before the Covid-19 pandemic, if they did, how much the pandemic process affected, their current physical activity, quality of life and depression levels.Physical activity levels; with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire -Short Form, quality of life; with Short Form-36, depression levels; with Beck Depression Scale were evaluated.
Results:During the pandemic process physical activity amounts of the students were 1763.57 ± 1135.41 MET-min/week, 30.7% were not physically active, 48.5% had low physical activity level, and 20.8% of physical activity level was sufficient to protect health. Students, the average of the physical health score was 54.78 ± 5.89 and the average of the mental health score was 47.12 ± 9.83, while the depression measurement results were 16.03 ± 7.94.
Conclusion:As a result; during the pandemic process, it was determined that the level of physical activity in university students was quite low and the depression and quality of life levels of the students were negatively affected in this process.
