“…There is a slight negative and significant correlation between diet and emotional intelligence. This relationship agrees with the findings of Sanz-Martín et al (2023b) in Spanish youth. In this group no regression model including physical activity was found.…”

Levels of adherence to the Mediterranean diet in Spanish university students need to be verified. It is necessary to go deeper into what these are and what factors determine them. This is useful to design effective diet promotion proposals in this population. The objectives are: 1) To classify Spanish university students of Education Degrees according to their levels of Mediterranean diet, physical activity and emotional intelligence; 2) To analyse the influence of physical activity and emotional intelligence as determinants of Mediterranean diet according to lifestyle profiles. A cross-sectional study was designed with the participation of a representative sample of university students of education degrees. Participants ranged in age from 18 to 43 years (20.84±2.90). Men represented 30.2% of the sample (n=125) and women 69.8% (n=289). An online questionnaire was administered comprising the following: PREDIMED, IPAQ-SF and TMMS-24. The regression model obtained for the whole sample was: Mediterranean diet= 2.536+0.001*physical activity+0.029*emotional intelligence. The two-stage cluster classification (Ward and k-means) was validated with the MANOVA test (Pillai trace: F (6, 820) = 159.101; p ≤ 0.001; f = 1.00). It is concluded that 8% of university students' adherence to the Mediterranean diet is predicted by moderate-vigorous physical activity and emotional intelligence. Adherence to the diet is positively related to physical activity and emotional intelligence. Keywords: lifestyles; moderate-vigorous physical activity; Spain; cluster analysis; regression model.

“…This classification was validated using the MANOVA test, obtaining significant statistics. The number of clusters is similar to that obtained by Sanz-Martín et al (2023b) for the adolescent population of Soria (Spain). This research measured moderate-vigorous physical activity, screen time and sleep time .…”

“…In addition, men's body mass index was significantly higher than women's in this study. The positive and non-significant relationship between body mass index and social network addiction could be partially due to social network use being considered a low-intensity physical activity [56], which is associated with low energy expenditure [57] and therefore a greater likelihood of weight gain [58]. This would be increased because addiction involves more social networking time [59].…”

Social network use has increased in recent years. Social networks are fast-changing and may cause negative effects such as dependence and addiction. Hence, it was decided to establish two research aims: (1) to identify the social network used by university students and their use levels according to their sex and (2) to analyse how age, body mass index, physical activity, emotional intelligence and social network type affect addiction to social networks according to young people’s sex. A cross-sectional study was designed involving Spanish university students from Education Degrees. The mean age of the participants was 20.84 years (±2.90). Females made up 69.8% of the sample and males 30.2%. An online questionnaire was administered that included sociodemographic questions, IPAQ-SF and TMMS-24. This study found that all students use WhatsApp and more than 97% have YouTube and Instagram accounts. The linear regression model obtained was as follows: social network addiction = 3.355 + 0.336*emotional attention − 0.263*emotional clarity. There is a positive relationship between social network addiction and emotional attention (r = 0.25; p < 0.001) and negative relationships between social network addiction and emotional clarity (r = −0.16; p = 0.002) and between social network addiction and age (r = −0.17; p = 0.001). University students report lower levels of social network addiction and slightly higher levels of social network addiction among females. In addition, there are significant differences between the average social network addiction scores of university students in terms of their use of Telegram, TikTok and Twitch.

“…Different studies have considered the hypothesis of bidirectionality between PA and sleep, more specifically, that appropriate levels of PA are associated with better sleep efficiency and thus, deficiencies in sleep lead to lower PA levels [ 27 ]. Different studies [ 28 , 29 , 30 ] report the difficulties of children and adolescents and how it is necessary to deepen the study of these variables due to the importance of childhood and adolescence as stages of development and adherence to behaviours that will lead to future healthy adults.…”

The socioeconomic and built environment of an area are interrelated with health data and have a direct influence on children’s development. There are facilitators and barriers for schools to promote physical activity depending on the socioeconomic status of the school. The aim of this study was to analyse the relationship between physical activity and sleep and the socioeconomic level of children in the Basque Country. The sample consisted of 1139 schoolchildren between the ages of six and seventeen (566 boys and 573 girls) from 75 schools (43 public and 32 private). Differences between groups were compared using the Mann–Whitney U test (two samples), Kruskal–Wallis one-factor ANOVA (k samples), and Spearman’s Rho correlation. There are sex differences in light (200.8 ± 62.5 vs. 215.9 ± 54.7) and moderate (69.0 ± 34.3 vs. 79.9 ± 32.1) physical activity in favour of the female group of higher socioeconomic status compared to male group of higher socioeconomic status. In the case of vigorous physical activity, the female group performed less than the male group across all socioeconomic statuses, which was statistically significant in the groups of high socioeconomic status (11.6 ± 9.3 vs. 6.9 ± 5.7) in group 2 and medium socioeconomic status (11.1 ± 9.3 vs. 7.7 ± 6.1) in group 3. There is an inverse relationship between sedentary behaviour and BMI, total bed time, total sleep time, and night-time awakenings. There is also an inverse relationship between all levels of physical activity performed with respect to BMI and total sleep efficiency. These data point towards notable inequalities in physical activity and daily sleep in Basque schoolchildren, which in turn may be marginalised in our current school system due to the effects of the socioeconomic environment.
