Purpose:Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between quality of life and physical activity, stress, depression and sleep quality among university students during the Covid-19 period.Material and Methods: A total of 273 participants (mean age:20.51.4 years;mean height:166.98.0cm;BMI:21.43.0 kg/cm2) were included in the study. To assess physical activity, perceived stress, depression severity, sleep quality and quality of life of the participants, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale, the Beck Depression Scale, the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index, theWHO-5 Wellness Index were used, respectively. Frequency, comparisons and regression analysis were used as statistical methods. Results: 52.7% of the participants were physically inactive and 42.5% had low physical activity levels. About 75% had good sleep quality and 80% had a moderate perception of stress. Approximately 66% of the participants had minimal to mild depression. 57.7% of the participants reported poor quality of life. Multiple regression analysis on quality of life of physical activity, depression, sleep quality and stress levels were found significant (F=18.115; p=0.001;R2=0.213). Conclusion: We suggest that physical activity, sleep quality, depression and stress affect the quality of life of students during the Covid-19 pandemic and the results should be considered in the management of these effects.
