Sport and Exercise Survey for Tampere Universities 2012

The study investigated the exercise behaviour of the students and personnel in higher education institutions in Tampere (Tampere University of Applied Sciences, Tampere University of Technology and University of Tampere). In the spring of 2012, there were plans to provide common sports services with a single fee to students and personnel of all higher education institutions in Tampere and the study also charted the respondents' views on these plans. The respondents' exercise habits were first investigated. Questions covered the average number of times exercised in one week and the average duration of each bout of exercise. Those respondents who did exercise were asked how often they used different university sports services (e.g. gym, group exercise classes) and whether they did other exercise besides that provided by the university sports services. Those who exercised outside the institution's sports services were asked how often they used different sports services of another sports provider, what other sports they did, and whether they would start using the university sports services if these provided the opportunity to practice their sport. Further, they were asked to what extent they agreed with several statements relating to the sports services provided by other sports providers. Those who did not exercise or exercised rarely were asked for their reasons. Regarding the common sports services to students of all universities in Tampere area, the respondents were asked which services they would use, how often and on which campus(es), if this sort of possibility was offered. Reasons for choosing one campus over another as the place to go for sport services were queried. The effects of the integration of sports services on the respondents' exercise behaviour were charted. The respondents were asked if they would practice more different kinds of sport as a result of the integrated sports services and whether they would exercise more with friends. Views on the effects of the integration (on quality and the number of service users) was surveyed as well as the attitudes toward the plans to integrate services. Background variables included, among others, the respondent's gender, year of birth, and economic activity. Relating to location, the respondent was asked the university closest to their residence and to rate the distances of the three universities. Degree students were asked the number of years studied.

本研究探讨了坦佩雷地区高等教育机构（包括坦佩雷应用科技大学、坦佩雷理工大学和坦佩雷大学）的学生及工作人员的体育锻炼行为。2012年春季，有计划为坦佩雷所有高等教育机构的学生和工作人员提供统一费用的体育服务。本研究亦记录了受访者对这些计划的看法。首先，研究调查了受访者的锻炼习惯，包括一周内平均锻炼次数以及每次锻炼的平均时长。对于有锻炼习惯的受访者，调查了他们使用不同大学体育服务的频率（例如健身房、团体锻炼课程）以及是否进行大学体育服务之外的其它锻炼。对于在机构体育服务之外进行锻炼的受访者，询问了他们使用不同体育服务提供商的频率、参与的其他运动类型，以及如果大学体育服务提供他们所喜爱的运动项目，他们是否会开始使用这些服务。此外，还询问了他们对其他体育提供商提供的体育服务相关陈述的认同程度。对于不锻炼或锻炼频率较低的受访者，询问了他们不锻炼或锻炼频率低的原因。关于坦佩雷地区所有大学学生的共同体育服务，受访者被询问他们可能会使用哪些服务、频率如何以及会在哪个校园（或哪些校园）使用，如果提供此类可能性。还调查了选择某个校园而非其他校园进行体育服务的理由。研究还追踪了体育服务整合对受访者锻炼行为的影响。受访者被询问是否会因为整合体育服务而增加练习不同类型的运动，以及是否会与朋友一起锻炼更多。对服务整合的影响（在服务质量和服务用户数量方面）的看法以及对于整合服务的计划的态度也被调查。背景变量包括受访者的性别、出生年份和职业活动。在地理位置方面，受访者被询问其居住地最近的大学，并对三所大学的距离进行评级。对于本科生，询问了他们学习的年数。
