Abstract

Istraživanje ovog diplomskog rada imalo je za cilj ispitati kakvoću prehrambenih navika i tjelesnu aktivnost djece primarnog obrazovanja. Uzorak ispitanika je obuhvaćao njih 111, te su podaci prikupljeni putem online anketnog upitnika objavljenog na društvenoj mreži Facebook u grupi Školska zbornica čiji su članovi roditelji i ujedno većinom učitelji. Istraživanje je pokazalo da postoji niz izazova u održavanju ravnoteže između unosa kalorija i tjelesne aktivnosti među školskom djecom. Prema dobivenim podacima, većina djece ima četiri obroka dnevno s naglaskom na nutritivnu vrijednost pri pripremi obroka, no voće i povrće su nedovoljno zastupljeni u prehrani. Unatoč tome, gotovo 70% djece je uključeno u organizirane tjelesne aktivnosti, no nažalost i velik broj provodi znatno više vremena pred ekranima nego u aktivnoj igri na otvorenom. Osim toga, konzumacija slatkiša i grickalica i dalje predstavlja izazov u postizanju uravnotežene prehrane, iako roditelji pokazuju svijest o ograničavanju unosa šećera i brze hrane. Iako postoji potreba za boljom ravnotežom u unosu različitih namirnica kako bi prehrana djece školske dobi bila izvan prosjeka, roditelji prepoznaju važnost zdrave prehrane i tjelesne aktivnosti te su svjesni potrebe za promjenama u prehrambenim navikama i smanjenju vremena provedenog pred ekranima. Važno je dalje promicati zdrave prehrambene i životne navike među školskom djecom kako bi se osigurao njihov zdrav razvoj i budućnost.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this master's thesis research was to examine the quality of dietary habits and physical activity of primary school children. The sample of participants included 111 individuals, and data were collected through an online survey questionnaire published on the social media platform Facebook, within the group Školska zbornica, whose members are parents and predominantly teachers. The study revealed a number of challenges in maintaining a balance between caloric intake and physical activity among school children. According to the obtained data, the majority of children have four meals a day, with an emphasis on nutritional value when preparing meals, but fruits and vegetables are underrepresented in their diets. Despite this, nearly 70% of children are engaged in organized physical activities, but unfortunately, a significant number also spend more time in front of screens than in active outdoor play. Furthermore, the consumption of sweets and snacks continues to pose a challenge in achieving a balanced diet, although parents demonstrate an awareness of limiting sugar intake and fast food. While there is a need for better balance in the intake of various foods to elevate the dietary habits of school-age children beyond the average, parents recognize the importance of healthy eating and physical activity and are aware of the need for changes in dietary habits and a reduction in screen time. It is crucial to continue promoting healthy dietary and lifestyle habits among school children to ensure their healthy development and future.
