In most Western countries young people adopt lifestyles that adversely affect their health, thus increasing the risk of premature onset of chronic diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare patterns of habits in pre-university and university students in west-central area of Madrid.
Descriptive longitudinal study with randomly selected students from Madrid in Madrid universities and schools-institutes. Accepting to participate 1590 students of both sex: 653 males (4,1%) and 937 women (58,9%). To facilitate the study were classified into ≤ 17 years (pre university) and ≥ 18 years (university).
BMI, physical activity, alcohol consumption and negative habits with regard to food consumption was studied. Almost 80% have normal weight, are more active pre-university.
Gender differences were observed, which should guide the actions of intervention in terms of physical activity or habits. It seems essential to make nutritional programs as well as psychosocial intervention in adolescents and youth to prevent and / or reduce alcohol consumption.
在大多数西方国家,年轻人养成了对健康产生不利影响的生活方式,从而增加了慢性病过早发作的风险。因此,本研究的目的是比较马德里中西部地区高中生和大学生的生活习惯模式。
对马德里各大学和中学中随机抽取的学生进行描述性纵向研究。共有1590名学生(653名男性,占41%;937名女性,占58.9%)同意参与研究。为便于研究,将学生分为≤17岁(高中生)和≥18岁(大学生)两组。
研究了体重指数、体育活动、饮酒情况以及与食物消费相关的不良习惯。近80%的人体重正常,高中生的活动量更大。
观察到了性别差异,这应指导在体育活动或生活习惯方面的干预行动。对青少年和青年实施营养计划以及心理社会干预以预防和/或减少饮酒似乎至关重要。
