Brief Summary

It is important to determine the attitudes and behaviors of individuals towards regular exercise participation in order to direct individuals to physical activity or to implement effective practices related to increasing their participation. The aim of this study was to determine the awareness of physical activity in young adults, the relationship between physical activity awareness and physical activity level and to investigate the differences between sexes.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Physical Activity Level

  Physical activity will be assessed with IPAQ-SF questionnaire. IPAQ-SF is a self-report questionnaire that assesses PA in the last 7 days. Using the IPAQ-SF scoring system, the total number of days and minutes of PA were calculated for each participant as recommended in the IPAQ website. The IPAQ-SF records the activity in four intensity levels: sitting, walking, moderate intensity (e.g., leisure cycling), and vigorous intensity (e.g, running or aerobics).

  After the individuals permission, its taken in the first minute.

• Physical Activity Awareness

  Physical activity awareness will be assessed with Cognitive Behavioral Physical Activity Questionnaire (CBPAQ). The CBPAQ scale consists of 15 items, including three sub-dimensions: personal barriers, outcome expectations and self-regulation. The individual items are rated at 1-5 according to the situation in which they are most appropriate. The higher the score, the higher the level of awareness.

  After they completed the IPAQ-SF, its taken in the sixth minute.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Number of Steps
