Abstract

Glavni cilj ovoga istraživanja bilo je utvrditi postoji li povezanost između bavljenja kineziološkim aktivnostima i akademske uspješnost studenata. Pod kineziološke aktivnosti u ovo istraživanje ubrojeni su razni oblici rekreacije, sportova i slobodnih oblika kretanja prema određenoj učestalosti. Akademsku uspješnost studenata u istaživanju predstavlja aritmetička sredina prosjeka ocijena iz prethodno završenih akademskih godina studija te prosjeka ocijena u tekućoj akademskoj godini u obliku pitanja o najčeščoj ocijeni u indeksu ispitanika.
Istraživanje je provedeno na studenticama 3. godine Učiteljskog fakulteta u Zagrebu. Uzorak ispitanika bilo je 40 studentica sa odsjeka za Rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje. Uzorak varijabli bio je preuzet i preveden upitnik za procjenu uobičajne tjelesne aktivnosti osobe (A short questionnaire for the measurement of habitual physical activity in epidemiological studies) uz dodatak pitanja za procjenu akademske uspješnosti. Ispitivanje je provedeno elektorničkim putem. U svrhu potvrde cilja ovog istraživanja, no i prihvaćanja ili odbacivanja postavljenih hipoteza ovoga rada korištene su: metoda deskriptivne statistike, analiza podataka korelacijom i regresijom parametara te provedba t-testa.
Obradom podataka rezultati su pokazali da bavljenje kineziološkom akivnošću ili više njih nije povezano s akademskom uspješnošću studenata. Drugim riječima, glavna hipoteza ovoga istraživanja se odbacuje jer kod usporedbi najčešće ocijene u indeksu i bavljenja kineziološlom aktivnošću nisu pronađene značajne razlikovne vrijednosti. Ipak, ovakav ishod istraživanja ne negira u potpunosti mogućnost da kineziološka aktivnost ne utječe samo na očuvanje optimalnog zdravstvenog stanja i olakšavanje svakodnevnog funkcioniranja, nego i na psihološke procese. Mogući razlog ovakvog ishoda istraživanja je malen i uzak uzorak ispitanika.

Abstract (english)

The main goal of this research was to determine whether there is a connection between engaging in kinesiological activity and students’ academic success. This research includes various forms of recreation, sports and free forms of movement under kinesiological activities according to a certain frequency. Students’ academic success in this study is represented by the arithmetic mean of a grade point average from previously completed academic years of study and a grade point average of the current academic year in the form of the most common grade in a responders index.
The research was conducted on 3rd year female students at the Faculty of Teacher Education in Zagreb. The sample of responders was 40 female students from the Department of Early and Preschool Education. A sample of variables was a taken and translated questionnaire (A short questionnaire for the measurement of habitual physical activity in epidemiological studies) for assessment of habitual physical activity with the addition of a question to assess academic success. In order to confirm the goal of this research, but also to confirm or deny the placed hypotheses of this research used methods were: descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis of parameters and implementation of t-test.
By processing data, the results show that engaging in one or more kinesiological activities isn`t associated with students’ academic success. In other words, the main hypothesis of this study is denied because, when comparing the most common grade in a students` index and dealing with kinesiological activity, no significant difference values were found. Still, this type of outcome of this study doesn`t completely deny that kinesiological activity does not only affect the preservation of optimal health state and facilitates daily functioning, but also the psychological processes. A possible reason for this outcome is of the study is a small and narrow sample of respondents.
