Relation Among Physical Activity and Personality Traits in University of Applied Health Studies Students
The aim of this study was to determine the association among physical activity and personality traits (shyness, self-esteem, extraversion, neuroticism and psychoticism) in University of Applied Health Studies students. The data was collected from a group of 341 (264 female, 77 male) participants aged 18 – 48 years. Physical activity was measured using Baecke Questionnaire of Habitual Physical Activity (BQ), and personality traits were measured using Cheek and Buss Shyness Scale (CBS), Rosenberg Self - Esteem Scale (RSES), and Eysenck Personality Questionairre (EPQ). Results showed that students are averagely physically active, and that male students are more active than their female colleagues. Furthermore, significant positive correlation was established between degree of physical activity and extraversion and self-esteem, while negative correlation was established between degree of physical activity and shyness. Further analysis should be conducted to examine real structure of relationship among physical activity and personality traits, but, as these results also suggest, it certainly exists and should be thought upon when creating new programs for promoting physical activity not only in student, but also in general population.
