Abstract
El objetivo de este estudio ha sido analizar los hábitos y motivaciones de práctica de actividad física-deportiva del alumnado
universitario. En el estudio participó una muestra de 608 universitarios del campus de Santiago de Compostela, seleccionados por
muestreo aleatorio estratificado. Para el análisis de datos se establecieron dos grupos (hombres vs. mujeres) y se realizaron comparaciones
por medio de los test chi-cuadrado y t de Student, situando el nivel de significación en p < .05. El 74.35% de los universitarios practicaban
algún tipo de actividad físico-deportiva, y el 34.38% de los encuestados afirmó practicar con una frecuencia de tres o más veces por
semana. La edad media de abandono de la práctica físico-deportiva se situó en los 18.42 años. Hacer ejercicio físico fue la principal
motivación entre los estudiantes que practicaban alguna actividad física o deportiva. El motivo más señalado para el abandono de la
actividad física fue la falta de tiempo para estudiar.
