Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and engaging in suf iient physical activity
contribute to the preservation of health and personal growth in young students.
These issues are very relevant today for Ukrainian society, due to the long quarantine and Russian military aggression, which have signif cantly changed the way
of life of young people and limited the opportunity to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
The purpose of our study was to determine the lifestyle prof le and physical
activity of students in adverse ecological and psychological conditions during
the war.
Materials and Methods: The research, conducted over a three-year period
(2021-2024), involved 84 students from three universities in Ukraine. We employed a method that involved analyzing scientif c literature, synthesizing and
systematizing the f ndings, generalizing the results, surveying applicants (online
using the Google Forms application), testing the prof le for a healthy lifestyle,
and applying mathematical statistics.
The results of the test showed that during the year, under the inf uence of
the change in the socio-ecological state of the environment caused by military
actions in Ukraine, f ve indicators changed among students: Health Responsibility, Physical Activity, Nutrition, Spiritual Growth, and Stress Management. The
use of modif ed and adjusted physical education methods for distance learning
contributed to a gradual increase in students’ physical activity.
Conclusion: It was determined that the behavioral constructs (responsibility
for health, physical activity, and nutrition) and the cognitive-emotional component of young students (spiritual growth, interpersonal relationships, and stress
management) were above average and changed as a result of the environmental factors and long-term military environmental factors (p≤.01). The choice
of physical activity is determined by the availability of f nancial resources, the
availability of sports infrastructure, conditions for independent training at home,
employment, and motivation for a healthy lifestyle. The existence of signif cant
relationships between physical activity and all indicators of a healthy lifestyle
has been mathematically proven (r=.514-.796).
