Introduction: Leisure and family relationships are two importance variables in university student normal development; its correlation could indicate some work strategies in the health field. Objective: To relate leisure and family relationships in two independent samples. Methods: The sample selected was 40 students from the Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE (ESPE) and 35 students from the Universidad Central del Ecuador (UCE). Two internationally validated questionnaires were applied to establish the relevant correlations. Results: Descriptive aspects of each independent group studied are detailed. The correlation of leisure between the independent groups determined significant differences (p = 0.000) in favor of ESPE students (53.53), while the family relationships did not determine significant differences (p = 0.810) between independent groups. The interdependencies established with the Spearman test did not show conclusive results when relating leisure and family relationships in the students of the ESPE (bilateral significance: r = 0.038, correlation coefficient:-0.329), said correlation being low. In the UCE case, the correlation between leisure and family relationships did not determine a significant difference (r = 0.330). Conclusions: There is no convincing relationship between the amount of leisure and the family relationships quality of the student's research, recommending the inclusion of other related variables for future research. © 2018, Editorial Ciencias Medicas.
