This study aimed at exploring the lifestyles of university students, the relationship between specific demographical variables and health practices and the role of training in improving these practices. An experimental and a comparison group were selected using the convenient sampling method. Two 5-day training programmes on healthy lifestyles were conducted. Self-reported behaviours of both groups were assessed before and after the programme. The results reflected slightly positive health practices related to the three behavioural categories with the type of diet being the highest and physical activity being the lowest. No significant differences were reflected in relation to the selected variables. A positive influence of training on improving health behaviours of university students related to the three behavioural categories was observed. Results suggest a similar course to be included as a university elective and students' involvement in available extra curricular activities be encouraged.
本研究旨在探索大学生的生活方式、特定人口统计学变量与健康行为之间的关系，以及培训在改善这些行为方面的作用。采用便利抽样法选取了一个实验组和一个对照组。开展了两个为期5天的关于健康生活方式的培训项目。在项目前后对两组的自我报告行为进行了评估。结果显示，与三类行为相关的健康行为呈现出轻微的积极趋势，其中饮食行为方面最为积极，体育活动方面最为消极。在所选取的变量方面未体现出显著差异。观察到培训对改善大学生与三类行为相关的健康行为具有积极影响。结果表明，应将类似课程纳入大学选修课，并鼓励学生参与现有的课外活动。
