The research method was causal-comparative and its statistical population included all citizens of Semirom (26,942 people), from whom 338 people were selected as a sample according to the Morgan table and by available random method. The research tools included the active lifestyle questionnaire of Beck et al. (1982) and the use of sports media of Shojie (2015). In order to assess the validity of the research tool, the questionnaires were provided to experts and professors related to the research topic to express their opinions and suggestions on how to write the questions, the number of questions, the content of the questions, the relationship of the questions with the options, and the coordination of the questions with the research objectives. After the questionnaires were reviewed by experts and professors and their results were announced, it was determined that all questionnaires had face and content validity and were approved by the professors. Also, Cronbach's alpha test was used to measure the reliability of the research questionnaires, and the results obtained from the Cronbach's alpha test confirmed the reliability of the research questionnaires. Descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (Kolmogrov-Smirnov test and one-way analysis of variance test and Scheffe and Games Hall post hoc tests) were used to analyze the data. The results of the present study showed that there is a significant difference in all three components related to lifestyle (work-exercise-leisure) based on the amount of use of visual, auditory and printed media.
