Among the university students especially in adolescence period, smoking habits and unhealthy lifestyles are major problems in social life. In this study, it is intended to reveal smoking habits and lifestyles of the students from Suleyman Demirel University and to determine the effects of smoking and lifestyles on pulmonary functions.
Participants were 94 university students who were getting formal education in the Suleyman Demirel University central campus. Data were analysed by analysis of variance and chi-square tests. For all analysis, p value of <0.05 was considered significant.
Students' mean age was 19.9 ± 0.9 years, and of all the students 74 (78.7%) were undergraduate students; remaining 20 (21.3%) were graduate students. Of all the students, 27 (28.7%), which comprised the largest group of the students, were living in state dormitory. Body mass index (BMI) was examined for the study group; according to BMI, body weight was generally within normal limits but 17.39% of girls' were found to be underweight.
Respiratory parameters can be affected by many factors. Smoking habit of university students can be prevented, and it is an important point that they have a healthy lifestyle both for their own health and for future generations.
在大学生中，尤其是青春期的大学生，吸烟习惯和不健康的生活方式是社会生活中的主要问题。在本研究中，旨在揭示苏莱曼·德米雷尔大学学生的吸烟习惯和生活方式，并确定吸烟和生活方式对肺功能的影响。
参与者为94名在苏莱曼·德米雷尔大学中心校区接受正规教育的大学生。数据采用方差分析和卡方检验进行分析。所有分析中，p值<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
学生的平均年龄为19.9±0.9岁，所有学生中74名（78.7%）为本科生；其余20名（21.3%）为研究生。所有学生中，27名（28.7%）住在国家宿舍，这是学生中人数最多的一组。对研究组进行了体重指数（BMI）检查；根据BMI，体重总体在正常范围内，但发现17.39%的女生体重过轻。
呼吸参数会受到多种因素的影响。大学生的吸烟习惯是可以预防的，他们拥有健康的生活方式对自身健康和后代都很重要。
