However, there was significant difference between D and NDA and between NDAand NDS insert ignore into journalissuearticles values( p < 0.05);. In multinomial regression model, it was found that when weekly duration exercise increases 1 unit in the D, 1.082 unit increase occurs compared to NDA insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(β=1.082, p = 0.012);.
