How do students incorporate physical activity into their daily commuting
routines? (1)
To answer this question, several questions from the questionnaire
were used and answered with the help of a cross-tabulation. To illustrate the
cross-tabulations, we divided the students into 2 groups. The students who live
within a radius of 2 km during their studies form the first group, the others the
second. Traffic was divided into passive and active traffic. We also analyzed the
time spent on traffic.

Legend: % is calculated on the basis of the total number of students (N=154). The type
of transportation (active or passive) is then calculated within the students who are up to 2 km
and over 2 km away.
Table 1 shows that 37 (24 %) of students live within a radius of 2 km of the
college. Of these, 10 (27%) use passive transportation to get to the college. All
students who live further than 2 km away travel to the college by bus or car and
only walk to the college from the parking lot or bus stop. For a more detailed
analysis, we also looked at time spent in traffic and found that 35.7% of students
spend up to one hour, 31.2% up to two hours and 33.1% more than three hours
on the road, with 75% of all students using passive transportation, which takes
almost three hours on average.
What are the levels of physical (in)activity among students, and how do
they manage stress and pain? (2)
To answer this question, we used questions about the average number
of hours per day that students sit (including hours spent on passive transpor-
tation), sleep, and are moderately to highly physically active, and calculated
means and standard deviations. We analyzed the questions on stress and pain
management using frequency distributions.
