Studentu veselīga dzīvesveida paradumi emocionālai labjūtei

Abstract

In the academic years of 2018/2019 and 2019/2020, a total of 122 full-time and part-time students were interviewed from study programmes ‘Teacher’ (LiepU) and ‘Sports Health’ (RSU Liepāja Branch). The research data shows that students should improve their healthy lifestyle habits in the following healthy lifestyle components: physical activity, eating habits and stress management, as 5.1 % of respondents have insufficient physical activity, which is a risk factor for chronic diseases, 37.7 % of students do not control the use of salt and sugar and 28.7 % of students are not using healthy methods to overcome stress. Evaluating students' emotional wellness it can be concluded that 40 % of students are able to maintain their emotional wellness at sufficiently good level, 51 % of students at satisfactory level, but 9 % at unsatisfactory level. Moderately close correlations are found between the following characteristic parameters of a healthy lifestyle component: physical activity, eating habits, stress management. There is a weak correlation between the indicators of emotional wellness and all healthy lifestyle components described in this study, except for the components that characterize the stress management.
