Abstract (2. Language): 
The specific objective of this study was to examine the physical activity patterns among normal weight and obese university students. This cross-sectional research study was carried out on the 176 university students. As a data-collecting device, the Physical activity assessment questionnaire (FADA) was used. An additional questionnaire was administered to obtain Body Mass Index (BKİ) and demographic data. 8.5% (15) of students were obese (Body Mass Index ≥ 25). The mean age, gender, where the student lived , family type, social guarantee and income were not statistically different between subjects who were normal weight and subjects who were obese (p>0.05). There was difference between normal weight and obese groups from the perspective of FADA stair, FADA sport, FADA travel and FADA total variables, in physical activity measurement (p<0.05). When the obese groups were categorized according to their total physical activity score which was obtained from FADA, 83.5 % (15) of them found as sedentary. A negatively significant correlation was found between BKİ and FADA stair, sport, travel, total scores (r= -0.223- 0.285, p<0.05). According to Binary logistic regression analysis, it was found that the FADA sport and total decreased, as the value of BKİ increased (p<0.02). Proper weight and higher physical activity levels should be promoted among university students. Additionally, schools should provide opportunities for young people to participate in a wider range of physical activities that address their individual needs while promoting the health benefits of engaging in regular exercise.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Çalışmanın amacı, normal ağırlıktaki ve obez üniversite öğrencileri arasında, fiziksel aktivite paternlerini araştırmaktır. Kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı tipteki bu çalışma, 176 üniversite öğrencisini kapsamaktadır. Verilerin toplanmasında, sosyodemografik özellikleri içeren soru formu, Fiziksel Aktiviteyi Değerlendirme Anketi (FADA) kullanılmıştır. Öğrencilerin % 8.5 (15)’u obezdir (Beden Kitle İndeksi ≥ 25). Yaş, cinsiyet, yaşadığı yer, aile tipi, sosyal güvence ve aylık gelir açısından, normal ağırlıklı ve obez gruplar arasında istatistiksel fark bulunmamıştır (p>0.05). Fiziksel aktivite ölçümünün, FADA merdiven, FADA spor, FADA ulaşım ve FADA toplam değişkenleri açısından, normal ağırlıklı ve obez grupları arasında fark vardır (p<0.05). FADA’dan alınan toplam fiziksel aktivite puanına göre, obez grubun 15 (%83.4)’ü sedanter olarak bulunmuştur. BKİ ile, FADA merdiven, spor, ulaşım ve toplam değerleri arasında negatif bir ilişki bulunmuştur (r= - 0.223- 0.285, p<0.05). İkili lojistik regresyon analizine göre, BKİ değeri arttıkça, FADA spor ve toplam değerlerinin azaldığı bulunmuştur (p<0.02). Üniversite öğrencileri arasında, uygun ağırlıkta olma ve yüksek fiziksel aktivite seviyeleri teşvik edilmelidir. Ayrıca okullar, düzenli fiziksel aktivite yapmanın sağlığa faydalarını açıklarken, bireysel ihtiyaçları için gençlere, fiziksel aktivitelere geniş kapsamlı katılımları için fırsatlar sağlamalıdırlar.
