| Abstract: | The relationship between perceived academic pressure and sedentary time moderated by trait conscientiousness in university students (sample: N = 32; M age= 20.75; SD age = 2.25; female = 71.9%) is analysed in an experience sampling study. Conscientiousness was measured once in a baseline questionnaire. Perceived academic pressure and sedentary time were measured daily over the course of nine days. The data was analysed using Linear Mixed Models. Against expectations, the relationship between academic pressure and sedentary time turned out to be insignificant (p = .76). Further, no significant influence of academic pressure on active sedentary time could have been found (p =.50). The moderation effect of conscientiousness on the relationship turned out to be insignificant as well (p = .93). However, research with other closely related constructs, specifically the concept studying, is advised. |
