Abstract

Objective: There are major changes in the lifestyles of students with the limitations of the Coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic. This study aimed to determine the physical activity status and sleep quality of high school and university students during the pandemic and to compare the sleep quality findings according to their physical activity status. Materials and Methods: The data were collected electronically. The short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ short form) and the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) scale were used. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used for the determination of the difference between the groups, which were separated according to IPAQ scores. The correlation between the metabolic equivalents (METs) obtained from the IPAQ score and PSQI score was evaluated using Spearman’s correlation analysis Results: The rate of students who were found inactive was 27.1%, and the rate of those who were found minimally active was 38.1%. In addition, 66.5% of the students had poor sleep quality. There was no significant difference between the PSQI scores and sleep components in the through groups separated according to IPAQ scores. There was no correlation between METs (min/week) and PSQI scores. Conclusion: These findings show that students may be negatively affected both physically and psychologically. After the pandemic, this lifestyle may become permanent and health problems may arise. Students should be made aware of this subject and accessible solution proposals should be created. Finally, more research is needed to understand the possible interaction between physical activity and sleep quality.

Özet

Amaç: Koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 pandemisinin sınırlamaları ile öğrencilerin yaşam tarzlarında büyük değişiklikler gerçekleşmiştir. Bu çalışmada, lise ve üniversite öğrencilerinin pandemi dönemindeki fiziksel aktivite durumları ve uyku kalitelerinin belirlenmesi ve uyku kalitesi bulgularının fiziksel aktivite durumlarına göre karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Veriler elektronik olarak toplandı. Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi’nin (UFAA) kısa formu ve Pittsburgh uyku kalitesi indeksi (PUKİ) ölçeği kullanıldı. UFAA skoruna göre ayrılan gruplar arasındaki farkın belirlenmesinde Kruskal-Walllis testi kullanıldı. UFAA skorundan elde edilen metabolik eşdeğer (MET) ile PUKİ skoru arasındaki korelasyon Spearman korelasyon analizi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: İnaktif olan öğrencilerin oranı %27,1 iken, minimal aktif olanların oranı %38,1 idi. Ayrıca öğrencilerin %66,5’inin uyku kalitesi kötüydü. UFAA puanına göre ayrılan üç grupta PUKİ toplam puanı ile uyku bileşenleri arasında anlamlı fark yoktu. MET (dk/hafta) ile PUKİ skoru arasında korelasyon yoktu. Sonuç: Bu bulguların, öğrencilerin hem fiziksel hem de psikolojik olarak olumsuz etkilenmelerinin sonucu olduğu düşünülmektedir. Pandemi sonrasında bu yaşam tarzı kalıcı hale gelebilir ve sağlık sorunları ortaya çıkabilir. Bu nedenle,öğrenciler bu konuda bilinçlendirilmeli ve ulaşılabilir çözüm önerileri oluşturulmalıdır. Bununla birlikte, fiziksel aktivite ve uyku kalitesi arasındaki olası etkileşimi anlamak için daha fazla araştırmaya ihtiyaç vardır.
