Urban-Rural Contrasts in Attitudes, Motives and Sport Preferences in Adolescents

Original language description

This study focuses on the attitudes, motivation for physical activity (PA), structure of sport preferences and physical activity of students of two selected high schools (rural area; urban area). There were several questionnaires employed in this study: Dimension of attitude for children and youth (DIPO-J), motivation for physical activity questionnaire (MPAM-R) and sport preferences questionnaire. The research group (in total 300 respondents) consisted of 150 students from rural area and 150 students from urban area. According to the results, adolescents at both schools have moderately positive attitudes toward physical education. For both girls and boys was the most frequently chosen attitude to performance, health and fitness. The results of the sport preferences survey indicate that adolescents, in terms of different types of physical activity, preferred most the category “Individual Sports”, in which they placed swimming on the top. In terms of evaluation of PA, we found that boys are more physically active than girls are. After comparing the PA between rural and urban areas, the respondents from urban area have scored better in the category “Total PA” than the respondents from rural area.
