The Prediction of Academic Productivity through various Health Behaviors: Demographic Variability within College Students

Aaron Trondle

Various health behaviors have been shown to influence productivity. The purpose of this study was to investigate what health behaviors predicted productivity amongst diverse students. Students self-reported demographics, physical activity, sleep, alcohol consumption, and academic productivity. Linear regression models were utilized to identify significant predictors of productivity. Results suggested that various health behaviors significantly (p<0.05) predicted academic productivity differently among demographics. University health behavior interventions should be tailored towards specific demographics populations.
