Abstrakt

The aim of the research was to evaluate the nature of sedentary behavior and physical activities among students of performing arts. Two standardized questionnaires were used: the Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ) and a modified version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ Short Form). The research sample consisted of 124 students from the Faculty of Performing Arts at the Academy of Arts in Banska Bystrica. Significant differences in sedentary behavior were found between weekdays and weekends. Students spent an average of 9 hours and 42 minutes engaged in sedentary activities during weekdays and 7 hours and 33 minutes during weekends. The majority of sedentary time was dedicated to studying and class preparation (237 minutes per day) and playing a musical instrument (105 minutes per day). Moderate-intensity physical activity was reported by 48.39 % of students, while 23.39 % exhibited low levels of activity. Only 23.38 % of students achieved more than 10,000 steps per day. The results indicate a need to raise awareness about the importance of physical activity among students. It is recommended to organize lectures and workshops on the health benefits of exercise and to provide practical advice on integrating physical activity into their daily routines, taking into account their time constraints and academic commitments.
