Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study was to examine moderate and vigorous physical activity in adults with regard to sex. Two hundred forty seven females (age: 36.14 ±7.79 years) and 260 males (age: 39.63 ±8.37 years) a total 507 adults (age: 37.94 ±8.27 years) voluntarily participated in present study. Active transportation and sport activities indexes of Habitual Physical Activity Assessment Questionnaire (HPAAQ) were administered to participants by interview. The percentage of males who doesn’t prefer active transportation is higher (36.55 %) than females (10.94 %). The percentage of the sport participation was similar in both sexes. The intensity of sport activities was higher in males than females (p <0.05), but the duration of sport activities was higher in females than males (p >0.05). In conclusion, most of subjects didn’t engage in any sport activities. The duration of active transportation and sport activities was higher in females than males, but males prefer more intensively sport activities than females.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışmanın amacı, 19-59 yaşları arasındaki yetişkin bireylerin orta ve yüksek şiddette fiziksel aktiviteye katılımlarının cinsiyete göre incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya 247 kadın (yaş: 36.14 ±7.79 yıl) ve 260 erkek (yaş: 39.63 ±8.37 yıl) olmak üzere toplam 507 birey (yaş: 37.94 ±8.27 yıl) gönüllü katılmıştır. Fiziksel Aktivite Alışkanlığını Değerlendirme Anketi’nin (FAADA) aktif ulaşım (yürüyerek) ve spor aktiviteleri bölümü mülakat yöntemi ile uygulanmıştır. Aktif ulaşımı tercih etmeyenlerin oranının erkeklerde (%36.55), kadınlardan (%10.94), daha yüksek olduğu bulunmuştur. Hiç spor yapmayanların oranı her iki cinsiyette de benzer bulunmuştur. Erkeklerin yaptığı spor aktivitelerinin şiddet (MET/saat) ortalamasının kadınların ortalamasından daha yüksek ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu (p <0.05), süre ortalamasının ise kadınların ortalamasından daha düşük fakat istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olmadığı (p >0.05) saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak, çalışmaya katılan bireylerin çoğunun herhangi bir spor aktivitesine katılmadıkları, kadınların ulaşım amaçlı yürüyüş ve spor aktivitelerine katılım süresinin (saat/gün) erkeklerden daha uzun olduğu, erkeklerin daha yüksek şiddette spor aktivitelerini tercih ettikleri saptanmıştır.
