Resumen
To find out the effectiveness of an educational program on university students' perceptions of a
healthy exercise pattern. A quasi-experimental study to find out the exercise pattern of Mosul
University students for the period from 9th November 2022 to 2nd January 2023, the sample of (60)
students. The questionnaire consists of two parts: a part that measures social and demographic
information and includes (6) items, and a part that measures healthy lifestyle data with regard to
exercise pattern and includes (10) items. Determine the validity of the content of the questionnaire by
presenting it to experts and using the half-division technique and calculating the Pearson correlation
coefficient to determine the validity. The results of the data showed that all (60) students in the study
sample did not have an adequate level of perception of the healthy physical activity pattern in the
pre-test, while the results of the post-test after implementing the program were high, which shows
that there is an improvement in their perceptions of the healthy physical activity pattern.The study
showed that there was an improvement in perceptions of a healthy lifestyle related to exercise pattern
in the study group compared to those in the control group.The study recommended the need to
develop educational programs, lectures, courses and seminars on the benefits of a healthy exercise
pattern that university students must follow to increase their perceptions that lead to changing their
lifestyle and getting rid of wrong behaviors and habits.
