Description
Summary:The report presents the internship analysis results between the physical activity during the week and life quality fields in mid and late adolescence of students in different sport level. In the research took part students from secondary schools and universities from Slovakia (n=308). The life quality was observed via modificated questionnaire SQUALA and the level of the physical activity during the week in hours (PA). The results are presented by descriptive characteristics (n, M, SD) and the statistic importance of differences, relations is rated by non –parametric methods (W, U, rs) at the levels of importance (p<0.05, p<0.20; p = level of significant = p-value = 1%, 5%, 10%, 20%).Positive interactions PA with life quality fields were found in mid adolescence. In the group of active athletes in mid adolescence were proved positive interactions with the field of physical well-being (p<0.10),field of appearance and possession of things (p<,01), by occasional athletes with the spiritual field (p<0.01) and the field of education (p<0.20). In the group of students in lateadolescence was proved a positive interaction PA only with the field of material safety (p<0.01).It was repeatedly proved that mid and late adolescence is a very stormy and unstable period of lifetime, mainly when talking about satisfaction with life quality. The importance of life quality plays a great role in the lives of adolescents. It was also pointed out that there are possibilities to influence the fields of life quality via physical activities, but especially the importance of creating sufficient circumstances to enhance the life quality in social environment of adolescents.
