Brief summary: This study will investigate the relationship between sedentary behaviour and subjective well-being among a sample of university students. Eligible participants will fill out an online survey with questions assessing their sedentary behaviour, physical activity, subjective well-being, life satisfaction, depression, anxiety, and demographic variables.

Detailed description: An electronic survey will be used to assess outcomes of interest (i.e., demographics, sedentary behaviour and physical activity history, subjective well-being, life satisfaction, depression, and anxiety). The survey will be created and hosted on SoSci Survey. Interested participants will contact the investigators and will be sent a personal link to access the survey. Upon following the link, participants will answer inclusion/exclusion criteria and give electronic consent. Upon confirming consent and eligibility, participants will complete the survey. Upon completion of the survey, participants will be thanked and offered an entry into a draw.
