Description
Tarek Benameur and three co-authors survey student activity during the pandemic in a 2025 paper. Lockdowns closed gyms and shrank daily movement for many students. The team studied students at the University of Foggia in Italy. They used a long standard questionnaire on activity in daily life.
Just over three hundred students answered the survey. Two thirds reported high activity levels despite the closures. Work and leisure were the main sources of that activity. Men reported more leisure activity, while women moved more in travel and housework. Activity also varied with income, housing, and job status. Small living space and low income stood out as barriers. The authors urge lasting plans to keep students active in crises.
