dc.description.abstractWith the acceleration of modern life's pace, university students have experienced a decline in physical activity, leading to numerous health problems. This issue has become a significant concern in public health and urban planning, particularly in china, which has the largest population of university students in the world. Walking, as a simple and effective form of physical activity, is crucial for improving the physical and mental health of university students, making it a key strategy in addressing this challenge. Although many studies have explored walking behaviour from a single perspective of individual psychological or environmental factors, there is still limited research that comprehensively analyzes the influence of multiple factors on walking behaviour. Therefore, based on the socio-ecological model, this study focuses on chinese university students and aims to comprehensively investigate the effects of individual, psychosocial, and campus environmental factors on walking behaviour.
