SPORT AND ADOLESCENTS – Aspect of Sport with Adolescents who are Differently Active in Sport

Z raziskavo sem želel ugotoviti, kakšne so razlike med športno aktivnimi in športno neaktivnimi mladostniki. Vzorec anketirancev je zajemal dijake prvega in drugega letnika Gimnazije Ravne na Koroškem, dva splošna in dva športna razreda. Ugotovil sem, da imajo športno aktivni mladostniki več delovnih navad in samodiscipline, da si znajo dobro organizirati svoj čas in so uspešni v šoli, da si skozi športno aktivnost razvijajo tudi svoj sistem športnih vrednot in da je pri tem zelo pomembna tudi vloga staršev v športu v obliki spodbujanja in podpiranja pri njihovi športni dejavnosti. Rezultati so tudi pokazali, da so športniki uspešnejši od nešportnikov tudi na drugih življenjskih področjih, vendar le na tistih, kjer je čas nerelevanten dejavnik. Nešportniki so tako na primer lahko bolj dejavni tudi na glasbenem področju.The aim of my research was to find out differences between adolescents who are active in sport and others who are not. The pattern of survey participants included the first and second year pupils at the Grammar School Ravne na Koroškem, two general and two sports classes. I found that adolescents who are actively involved in sport have better work habits and self-discipline, they can efficiently organise their time and are also successful at school. The survey also established that when young people are developing their sports activities, they are simultaneously also building up their own system of sports and life values. Parents play an important role here by encouraging and supporting their children in their sports activities. Results showed that sportsmen perform better also in other life areas than those who do not take an active part in sport, however, only in those areas where time is an insignificant factor. Adolescents who are not engaged in sport can be, for example, more active in the area of music
