Здоровый образ жизни: позиция студентов

Abstract

Analyzes are factors that negatively affect the health (physical, mental, moral, social, etc.) of students. The author conducted a study in the leading universities of the Yaroslavl region. It was found that the majority of students have superficial ideas about a healthy lifestyle, which does not allow them to adhere to its principles. It has been proven that girls pay more attention to their health. Regardless of gender characteristics, distance learning led many students to a violation of the diet, sleep, and a sharp decrease in physical activity. Despite the fact that when polling to identify terminal values (life values), almost all respondents put health first, students are dominated by an irresponsible attitude towards their health. Students from families who belong to high resource groups (parents have a higher education, high position, wealthy, etc.), self-preservation behavior is more developed than students who belong to low resource groups (low level of parental education, lack of regular income etc.). It was found that students from families who belong to low-resource groups are characterized by self-destructive behavior (smoking, drug use, alcohol, etc.) to a greater extent than students from families who belong to high-resource and medium-resource groups. The study showed that the management of universities pays considerable attention to the complex development of the physical and mental qualities of students, taking into account their interests in certain sports and systems of physical training. Measures are proposed to increase the interest of young people in physical improvement, to reveal the value of a responsible attitude to their health.
