With 398 respondents from 4 universities, selected through stratified sampling, the researcher found out that: The level of influence of socio ecological factors on the physical activity of the students is considered to be very influential. Students who believe that socio-ecological factors have a significant impact on their physical activity are more likely to advocate for changes in their communities that make it simpler for them to be active. Those with high physical literacy are better prepared to participate in a variety of physical activities and sports. They possess the required skills and talents to participate in activities.
