Pētījuma mērķis bija noskaidrot fizisko aktivitāšu saistību ar uztverto stresu. Pētījumā piedalījās 265 respondenti, no tiem 57 (21,5%) vīrieši un 208 (78,5%) sievietes, vecumā no 16 līdz 74 gadiem (M = 29,66, SD = 12,43). Uztvertā stresa mērīšanai tika izmantota Uztvertā stresa skala (Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Cohen, Kamarck & Memelstein, 1983, aptauju latviešu valodā adaptējusi Ieva Stokenberga, 2008) un fiziskās aktivitāšu mērīšanai tika izmantota Fiziskās aktivitātes līmeņa aptauja un pašnovērtējums (Judzika, 2018). Pētījuma rezultāti neparādīja statistiski nozīmīgas saistības starp fiziskām aktivitātēm un uztverto stresu.The aim of this study was to find out the connection between physical activity and perceived stress.
