Abstract

It is critical to identify the factors that influence body mass index (BMI) to properly design targeted health interventions. This study aims to investigate the relationship between physical activity level (PAL) and night eating syndrome (NES) with BMI among university students. This cross-sectional study focused on 141 students at UiTM in Selangor and used a self-administered questionnaire consisting of socio-demographic data, the IPAQ-SF, and the NEQ. A negative, weak correlation was reported between PAL and BMI, while a positive correlation was found between NES and BMI. This study concluded that improving NES and PAL are crucial to enhance BMI status.
