Abstract

The aim of the present study was to examine the physical activity levels of young adults in terms of some variables. A total of 206 people were included in the present study. The physical activity level and body mass index of the participants were determined. The physical activity level of the participants was evaluated with the short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. In order to determine the body mass index of the participants, their height and body weight were measured. The mean physical activity score of the participants was 2554.41±1935.35 MET-min/week. The mean body mass index of the participants was determined as 21.96±3.21 kg/m2. It was found that there was a statistically significant difference between males and females in terms of physical activity score (p=0.023). A statistically significant difference was found between males and females in terms of body mass index (p
