INTERNAL FACTORS OF MEDICAL COLLEGE STUDENTS TO PERFORM PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Аrticle’s purpose is to determine the causes of low physical activity of medical college students, implemented in various forms of physical activity, to find ways to increase its volume and quality. Methodology. A set of adequate methods was used during the relevant studies. The main used method was the method of written survey and methods of mathematical statistics. The study was attended by 147 students of medical colleges in Kamianets-Podilsky and the Chemirovtsi.

The necessary information was obtained by means of a questionnaire developed by us taking into account the recommendations of experts. Scientific novelty. It was found that much more boys than girls are considered physical activity as an effective means of influencing health; but the smaller part of all respondents shows an interest in physical education; such activities do not contribute to the other position regarding health impacts; the theoretical and methodical preparedness of respondents is low in questions of physical activity. Conclusions. The obtained information explains a difference between a needed and the existent state of physical education tasks decision. In a larger sense, the state of this problem negatively affects the professional competence of students, as future medical workers. We need to improve the content and approaches for the physical activity performing formation and implementation to make the solution of the problem
