Özet

Amaç: Fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon bölümünde öğretim gören tüm üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite düzeylerini ve akademik başarı düzeylerini değerlendirmek ve birbirleriyle olan ilişkilerini araştırmaktı. Yöntem: Öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi (UFAA) ile değerlendirilirken, başarı düzeyleri genel akademik ortalamalarından (GAO) elde edildi. Bulgular: Çalışmaya 436 öğrenci dahil edildi. İkinci, üçüncü ve dördüncü sınıfların GAO’ları karşılaştırıldığında sınıflar arasında fark bulundu (p0,05). Tartışma: Önceki eğitim hayatına göre daha zor olan üniversite derslerinin öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite seviyelerinin değişmesine yol açabileceği düşünülmektedir. Elde edilen sonuçlar fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon bölümündeki eğitimcilere ve bu alanda yapılan çalışmalara yol gösterici olacaktır.
