Description

Introduction: Passive lifestyles carried out by community groups, such as
among students, can cause health problems in the future, such as the
emergence of degenerative diseases and endocrine diseases. Certain
lifestyles that are carried out can be influenced by internal factors such as
sociodemographic factors. This study aims to analyze the
sociodemographic factors that trigger passive lifestyle behaviour in
students.
Methods: The design of this research is a description. The research was
conducted in June 2022, involving 127 respondents from Malang City. The
population in this study were students in the city of Malang; the research
sample was some students who lived passive lifestyles. The sampling
technique used purposive sampling with the criteria that students were
living a passive lifestyle, as evidenced by a score of less than 36 (inactive
lifestyle) obtained from screening using a questionnaire. The International
Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) is used to identify the passive
lifestyle. The data were analyzed by bivariate analysis with Chi-square and
multivariate with odds ratio.
Results: The results of the study show that the education factor triggers a
passive lifestyle among students, with a value of 13.625 or 13.6%, meaning
that 13.6% of the trigger for an inactive lifestyle is from the education
factor.
Conclusion: Based on the study's results, it can be concluded that a person's
behaviour is determined mainly by their attitudes and understanding. So
it is essential to give massive educational efforts to teenagers about the
impact of a passive lifestyle to change their behaviour.
