Abstract (2. Language): 
The aim of the present study was to determine the physical activity levels of university students with a pedometer and investigate into the relationship between the physical activity and body composition and energy intake. A total of 1113 female and male university students participated in the present study. Pedometer determining the number of daily step was used to assess physical activity of subjects (Yamax PW610). Body composition was analyzed by bioelectrical impedance method (Tanita BC-418MA). Mean±SD number of daily steps of female and male students were found 8020±3117 steps/day and 8652±3258 steps/day, respectively. Between female and male subjects there was inversely correlation between the number of daily steps and BMI (r = -.115 and -.129), right leg fat percentage (r = -.110 and -.131), left leg fat percentage (r = -.119 and -.103) (p<0.05). There was not significantly correlation between the number of daily steps and energy consumption of subjects. As a result,it can be said that university students' physical activity levels are insufficient, daily step number of the males was higher than the female subjects. In addition, there was a negative relation between the daily number of steps and body fat percentage.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu araştırmanın amacı üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivitelerini adımsayar ile belirlemek ve fiziksel aktivite ile vücut kompozisyonu ve enerji tüketimi arasındaki ilişkisini incelemektir. Araştırmaya toplam 1113 kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencisi katıldı. Deneklerin fiziksel aktiviteleri günlük adım sayısının adımsayar (Yamax PW610) ile ölçülmesi yöntemi uygulandı. Vücut kompozisyonu belirlenmesinde Bioimpedance yöntemi kullanıldı (Tanita BC- 418MA). Araştırmaya katılan kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin ortalama günlük adım sayıları sırasıyla 8020±3117 adım/gün ve 8652±3258 adım/gün olarak belirlendi. Kadın ve erkek üniversite öğrencilerinin sırasıyla günlük adım sayısı ile VKİ (r = -.115 ve -.129), SağBYY (r = -.110 ve -.131) ve SolBYY (r = -.119 ve -.103), arasında istatistiksel olarak negatif anlamlı ilişki bulunmaktadır. Günlük adım sayısı ile Enerji Tüketimi (r = .026 ve .022) arasında ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki bulunmamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, üniversite öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktivite seviyeleri yetersiz ve erkek öğrencilerinin günlük adım sayıları kadınlara göre daha yüksek olduğu. Ayrıca günlük adım sayısı ile vücut yağ yüzdesi arasında negatif ilişki bulunmaktadır.
