Predictors of cigarette smoking and physical inactivity among teachers during the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic in Germany
Background: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic significantly impacted professional and private lives, which influenced social and health-related behavior. Schools in particular were greatly affected as restrictions made teaching more challenging, leading to new stresses and additional workloads. Prior to the pandemic, teachers were already facing many physical and psychological stressors that were exacerbated by the pandemic. This may have resulted in a det…
Convenience behavior in German university students is associated with sociodemographic, study- and health-related factors
Background The transition from school to university is often accompanied by a change in students’ lifestyles. So far little is known whether convenience behavior is an essential factor affecting students’ health and social interaction. In a heterogeneous population regard to sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics the Convenience Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ) showed a better relationship between convenience-related behavior with overwe…
Sedentary time of university students before and during the Covid-19 pandemic
Background The present study aimed to (1) assess and compare sedentary time (ST) of university students before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, (2) examine risk groups with regard to ST and the “extent of change” in ST (from before to during the pandemic) in association with sociodemographic (gender, age), study-related (degree aspired to, field of study, semester), and pre-pandemic physical health-related [pre-pandemic physical activity (PA) an…
Implementation of occupational safety and health measures at German schools during the Sars-CoV-2 pandemic—cross-sectional results from 31,089 teachers
Background: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic exacerbated existing health-related challenges in schools and created new ones. Under pandemic conditions, health risks increased, and with them the requirements for occupational safety and health (OSH) measures. The aim of the study was (a) to examine the status quo of OSH measures in German schools, (b) to analyze whether the implementation of OSH measures was associated with preferable outcomes and (c) to id…
Videos using different message strategies to promote the interruption of sedentary behavior in university students during online lectures – A pilot study
Background Sedentary behavior (SB) is highly prevalent among university students and has increased during COVID-19 pandemic. As SB is associated with negative health outcomes, appropriate prevention measures in the university setting are needed. Objective This pilot study aimed at investigating the effects of videos using different message strategies to interrupt SB in the collective of university students during online lectures. Methods During o…
Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior in University Students–The Role of Gender, Age, Field of Study, Targeted Degree, and Study Semester
Background Physical inactivity and sedentary behavior are modifiable risk factors for an unhealthy lifestyle in university students. The aim of this study was to identify subgroups among German university students with an increased risk for unhealthy behavior. For this purpose, differences in physical activity and sedentary behavior with respect to sociodemographic and study related factors were examined. Methods A total of 4,351 students partici…
Psychological Burdens among Teachers in Germany during the Sars-CoV-2 Pandemic—Subgroup Analysis from a Nationwide Cross-Sectional Online Survey
The online survey was conducted during the "third wave" of SARS-CoV-2 in Germany, which might have influenced risk perception and psychological strains. Future studies at different times, ideally longitudinal monitoring of the mental health of teachers, are recommended. Based on our results, evidence-based subgroup-specific interventions should be implemented to sustain teachers' mental health; for example, younger teachers or teachers with risk …
