| Summary: | The contribution presents the relationship between the frequency of physical activity duringthe week and fields of life quality of kindergarden teachers in three mature parts. In the research tookpart kindergarden teachers from Slovakia (n = 211) who were divided into groups according to theirontogenesis. The life quality was observed with a modified questionnaire SQUALA and the physicalactivity level frequency during the week. The data is presented by descriptive characteristics (n, M, SD)and statistic importance of differences, let us say relationships which are measured by non-parametricmethods (W, U, rs), by the importance level (p<0.05; p<0.10). The results showed the most numerouscorrelations between the physical activity during the week and fields of life quality of teachers in agegroup from 36-46 years (middle mature) who do the physical activity M: 3.250 during the week by SD:2.761. In this group were proved positive correlations with the field of physical well-being (p<0.01),psychosocial well-being (p<0.01), material well-being (p<0.01), education (p<0.10), free time (p<0.05),appearance and property of things (p<0.01). Specially this age is characteristic by reaching the highestgoals of physical and mental performance. In the groups of younger and older mature we do not find somany important relationships between the physical activity and some fields of life quality. In thesegroups we did not find any important correlations of physical activity with physical well-being wherethe group of young mature reached the same level of physical activity as the group of middle mature. The conclusions show the importance of physical activity in life of kindergarden teachers, they showsome possibilities of influencing the life quality through the physical activities but also creating theoptimal conditions possibilities to increase the life quality in social environment. The contribution ispart of the Ministry of Education grant KEGA 014UKF-4/2013 Improving the quality and level ofhealth of adolescents by means of physical activity in primary and secondary schools. |
