Bu çalışmada, Üniversite öğrencilerinin cinsiyet, aile gelir durumu ve sigara kullanım durumuna göre fiziksel aktivite ve yaşam kalitesi farklılıklarını ve bu parametreler arası ilişkileri incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçla gönüllülük esasına göre Bingöl Üniversite'sinden toplam 719 (396 kadın, 323 erkek) öğrenci ye fiziksel aktivite seviyelerini belirlemek için Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite (FA) Anketi (IPAQ) kısa formu uygulanmıştır. FA seviyeleri; inaktif, minimum aktif ve HEPA aktif grupları olarak belirlenmiş ve MET yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Uluslararası fiziksel aktivite anketi ile haftalık şiddetli ve orta dereceli fiziksel aktivite ve yürüme süreleri belirlendi. Katılımcıların toplam fiziksel aktivite süresi hesaplanarak 'düşük, orta ve yüksek düzey' biçiminde sınıflandırıldı. Şiddetli aktivite, orta dereceli aktivite, toplam fiziksel aktivite değerleri erkeklerde kadınlardan yüksek bulundu. Orta ve yüksek fiziksel aktivite düzeylerindeki yüzde değerler arasında istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Gelir durumuna göre toplam fiziksel aktivite ve yürüme parametreleri için istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık bulunurken, şiddetli fiziksel aktivite ve orta şiddetli fiziksel aktivite değişkenleri için anlamlı farklılık tespit edilememiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda; Üniversite öğrencilerinin cinsiyete göre toplam fiziksel aktivite değerleri, gelir durumuna göre ve sigara kullanım durumuna göre şiddetli aktivite, haftalık yürüme aktivitesi ve toplam fiziksel aktivite değerleri arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunduğu tespit edilmiştir.
