Zdrav življenjski slog študentov na mednarodni izmenjavi : magistrsko delo

Raspor, Patricija (avtor), Kostanjevec, Stojan (mentor), Erjavšek, Martina (komentor)

Mednarodna študentska izmenjava predstavlja pomembno priložnost za krepitev sodelovanja med evropskimi univerzami ter poglabljanje medkulturne povezanosti. Program Erasmus postaja vse bolj priljubljen, saj študentom omogoča ne le nadgradnjo akademskega znanja in izboljšanje jezikovnih kompetenc, temveč tudi neposredno izkušnjo spoznavanja raznolikih kultur in načinov življenja. S tem, ko študenti zapustijo svoje domače okolje in se soočijo z novimi socialnimi, kulturnimi in prehranskimi izzivi, se pogosto spreminja tudi njihov življenjski slog. Pri tem lahko zdrave življenjske vzorce nadomestijo manj zdrave ali celo življenjsko ogrožajoče navade. Zato je ključno, da študenti tudi v času izmenjave ohranjajo zdrav življenjski slog in tako poskrbijo za svoje fizično in duševno zdravje. V raziskovalnem delu magistrskega dela sem želela ugotoviti, kakšen je življenjski slog Erasmus študentov ter kateri dejavniki so povezani s spreminjanjem življenjskega sloga med študijsko izmenjavo. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 62 Erasmus študentov, ki so bili na izmenjavi v Sloveniji. Podatke sem pridobila s pomočjo spletnega anketnega vprašalnika. Obdelala sem jih s pomočjo programov MS Office Excel in SPSS, pri čemer sem uporabila deskriptivno in inferenčno statistiko. Raziskava je pokazala, da se najizrazitejše spremembe kažejo na področju prehrane. Večina študentov poroča o poslabšanju prehranskih vzorcev  njihova prehrana je neredna in nezdrava. K pogostejšemu uživanju hitro pripravljenih in industrijsko predelanih obrokov prispevata zlasti pomankanje časa ter njihova cenovna dostopnost. Poleg sprememb v prehrani rezultati kažejo tudi na povečano uživanje alkohola in zmanjšan obseg telesne aktivnosti, kar študenti povezujejo predvsem z visokimi cenami fitnes centrov in pomanjkanjem motivacije. Doživljanje stresa je manj izrazito kot v domačem okolju, kar nakazuje na sproščujoč učinek spremembe okolja in socialnih okoliščin. Na podlagi ugotovitev se kaže potreba po nadaljnjih raziskavah, ki bi podrobneje preučile povezavo med ravnijo znanja o zdravem življenjskem slogu ter dejanskimi spremembami življenjskih vzorcev Erasmus študentov.

Izvleček

International student exchange represents an important opportunity for strengthening cooperation among European universities and deepening intercultural connections. The Erasmus programme is becoming increasingly popular, as it enables students to enhance their academic knowledge, improve their language competencies, and gain direct experience of diverse cultures. By leaving their homes and facing new social, cultural, and culinary challenges, students often experience changes in their lifestyle. In this process, healthy habits may be replaced by less healthy or even life-threatening behaviours. It is therefore essential that students maintain a healthy lifestyle during their exchange in order to preserve their physical and mental well-being. In the research section of this master's thesis, the aim was to examine the lifestyle of Erasmus students and to identify the factors associated with lifestyle changes during Erasmus exchange. The study included 62 Erasmus students who participated in an exchange programme in Slovenia. Data were collected through an online questionnaire and analysed using MS Office Excel and SPSS, applying both descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The results indicate that the most significant changes are observed in the area of nutrition. The majority of students reported a decline in their nutritional patterns, characterised by irregular and unhealthy eating habits. The increased consumption of fast food and industrially processed meals was primarily associated with time constraints and affordability. The findings also indicate increased alcohol consumption and reduced physical activity, which are associated with the high cost of fitness centres and a lack of motivation. Conversely, students reported experiencing lower levels of stress during the exchange compared to their home environment, which may be attributed to the relaxing effect of changes in social and environmental circumstances. Based on these findings, there is a clear need for further research to explore the relationship between the level of knowledge about a healthy lifestyle and the actual lifestyle changes experienced by Erasmus students.
