Quality-of-Life-Among-University-Students

The young people are the population segment for whom the quality of life is relatively little analysed.Stronger understanding of the relation to some habits that take shape at this age and become a lifestyle can define health on long term.For this cross-sectional, descriptive, correlational design study, we chose to analyse healthy and unhealthy behaviours, using our own questionnaire, in correlations with some domains (physical, mental or general) of the quality of life.Through a regression analysis, it was identified in a group of students that there are significantly positive associations of diet, sports activities and sedentary behaviour in the three mentioned domains of quality of life.The practical implications of the obtained results can be used to start prevention programs, curricular changes aimed to address more at these factors and the positive associations to strengthen a healthy lifestyle related to eating habits, sleep and physical activity for students.
