ASSESS THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY OF PUPILS AGED 11
Abstract
The purpose of this research is to assess the physical activity among pupils in primary schools in Novi Sad, aged 11 years. The sample consisted of 185 participants (90 boys and 95 girls). Data were collected through a questionnaire, and modified Beacke Q questionnaire was used. Physical activity related to school - physical education, sports and leisure were assessed. For all data frequencies were calculated, and significance of differences in inclusion and type of physical activity of pupils by sex was determined by Chi-square test. In all three dimensions of physical activity, there was presence of significant differences between boys and girls (p ≤ 0.05). Boy’s higher level of physical activity compared to girls. Regular attendance of physical education is high, but the intensity of the class is low, while girls exercise with lower intensity compared to the boys. Boys are more active in sports and the most common sports for them are: football and basketball, while for girls: volleyball and tennis. Pupils involved in sports, generally carry out their activities more than 4 hours per week and 9 months per year. Most of leisure time pupils spent with computers and TV, boys spend more time in sports, while girls more in walking.
