ИНТЕРЕС НА СТУДЕНТИТЕ ЗА ВКЛУЧУВАЊЕ ВО АКТИВНОСТИ НА ОТВОРЕНО

Abstract

Being outdoor and practicing different outdoor sports has multiple benefits for the level of physical activity, health, socialization and closer contact with nature. The study aim is to determine students’ opinions for being in nature and exercising outdoor in nature, as well as to identify differences in student’s interest for participation in outdoor activities based on their gender and type of study. Study sample was comprised of 85 respondents, students at UGD. Specially designed questioner was applied. Results were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t – test. Results suggest that students prefer to be in nature whenever weather conditions allow, mainly in spring; choosing different forms of outdoor sports: hiking, running or cycling. The interest of students for being in nature and participation in outdoor sports is not determined by students’ gender or selected type of studies, suggesting that personal preferences and characteristics are determining factors for participation in outdoor sport.
