The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of sports education on healthy lifestyle behaviors of university students. The sample of the study consisted of 234 female and 249 male participants. T-test was used in statistical calculations. In the study, the average score of the Healthy Life Style Behavior Scale II is 134.5 points for women and 136.6 points for men. Again, the scale total score is 128.4 for those who do not receive sports education; and it is 139.1 for the students who receive sports training. According to gender, significant differences were found according in mental development, nutrition, physical activity, health responsibility, interpersonal relationships, and stress management (p <0.05). Likewise, students who received sports education had significantly higher scores on mental development, nutrition, physical activity, health responsibility, interpersonal relationships, stress management, and total scale scores than students who did not receive sports training (p <0.05 and p <0.001). As a result, sub-dimensions differ in perception of healthy lifestyle behaviors among university students. It is observed that sports education positively affects the healthy lifestyle behaviors of university students.Downloads
