Özet
Bu çalışmanın amacı, Malatya kent merkezindeki bankalarda çalışanların fizik aktivite düzeylerini saptamaktı. Yöntem: Kesitsel nitelikteki araştırmanın evreni, Malatya kent merkezindeki 21 bankada çalışan 451 kişi olup örneklem alınmamıştır. Nisan-Mayıs 2001 aylarında uygulanan anketi 367 kişi yanıtlamış olup, araştırmaya katılma oranı % 81’di. Sosyodemografik özellikler ile fizik aktivite ve bazı kronik hastalıkları sorgulayan sorulardan oluşan anket formu, kendi kendilerine doldurulmak üzere banka çalışanlarına dağıtılmıştır. Bulgular: Geçen ay 211 kişi (%57.5) herhangi bir fiziksel aktivite yapmışken, 156 kişi (%42.5) yapmamıştı. Aktivite türleri incelendiğinde; 138 kişi (%65.4) ile yürüyüş en sık yapılan aktiviteydi. En sık rastlanan fizik aktivite yapmama nedenleri sırasıyla; zaman yokluğu, sosyal engeller ve hastalık varlığıydı. Sadece 70 kişi (araştırmaya katılanların %19.0'ı) düzenli fizik aktivite yapmıştı. Düzenli fizik aktivite düzeyi; 40 yaş ve üzeri olanlarda ve hipertansiyon veya yüksek kolesterolü olanlarda daha yüksekti (p<0.05). Sonuç: Özellikle sağlık çalışanlarına ve medyaya, düzenli fizik aktivitenin sağlığa yararları konusunda halkı bilinçlendirmede büyük görev düşmektedir.
