This study aims to study the relationship between the levels of physical activity of adolescents and obesity consciousness and nutritional behaviors. The study was conducted with a total of 1966 working groups, including 1145 (58.2%) women and 821 (41.8%) men. The study used Personal Information Form, Physical Activity Question Form (FAS), Three Factor Eating Measure for Nutrition Behavior and Obesity Awareness Measure as data collection tools. As a result of the analysis, the scale of physical activity was x<18.01±5.95. Participants at the total obesity awareness level x=56.28±9.90 points, when the lower dimensions of the scale are assessed; for obesity awareness size x=21.70±4.14; for nutrition awareness size x=19.87±4. 02; Physical activity has achieved x=14.71±3.08 points for the consciousness size. The participants received a score of x=43.75±8.01 from the dietary behavior scale. When the lower dimensions of the measurement were studied; x=12.24±3.59 for uncontrolled eating behavior; x=6.49±3.01 for emotional eating behavior was obtained. For consciously eating restriction behavior x=15.92±4.46; for hunger sensitivity behavior x=9.10±3.51 was obtained. In addition, there has been a meaningful relationship between the levels of physical activity and the levels of obesity consciousness, the levels of physical activity and the lower dimensions of nutritional behavior (p<0.05). As a result, it can be said that adolescents have low levels of physical activity, their obesity awareness is high but their nutritional behavior is negative. Physical activity levels can also positively affect obesity consciousness and nutritional behavior.
