Correlation Between Physical Activity and Self Esteem In Female Students of the University Of Zadar
The aim of this study was to determine the overall level of university students’ physical activity and the level of different type of the physical activity concerning intensity of the activity (walking, moderate intensity, high intensity). Furthermore, the goal was to find out the level of students’ self-esteem. Also, the purpose was to explore relations between physical activity and self-esteem. Survey data collection was conducted on a sample of 312 female students from the University of Zadar. Physical activity level was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) - long form, and self-esteem was assessed using the Rosenberg self-esteem scale (RSES). Concerning the obtained results, the greatest energy consumption was gained by walking. Furthermore, students have the highest percentage of high self-esteem. Moreover, the Spearman’s rank correlations indicate that the student's moderate physical activity correlated with self-esteem. The evidence on the positive relationship of physical activity with self-esteem can potentially be used to support evidence-based promotion of physical activity in a university setting.The aim of this study was to determine the overall level of university students’ physical activity and the level of different type of the physical activity concerning intensity of the activity (walking, moderate intensity, high intensity).
