Recently, changes to our pace of living and to our quality of life (including demands of our leisure possibilities) have been rapid. We now expect higher standards of living filled with goods, services, and recreation activities unimaginable some decades ago. In the last two decades, there have been massive changes in work, communication, and travel resulting in what could be described as “leisure revolution.” The opportunities have increased in terms of both the time available and the variety of ways in which we can spend this time. Several aspects of physical exercise benefits are well recognized: we know that active recreation is especially stimulating and rewarding and that it helps to achieve sharper mental awareness and heightened consciousness. To be able to enjoy everyday outdoor active recreation and sports (netball, badminton, etc.), there has to be a network of recreation grounds and a supply of facilities that respond to the needs and expectations of society. The study of contemporary trends of leisure provision could be an essential spatial planning tool when contemporary housing estates functional programs are considered. Our research study (conducted on the basis of grants ds-114 and ds-144 AWF JP Warsaw; 2008-2012, supported by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education) aimed to provide information on present trends in the area of active recreation that could impinge on leisure facilities expected at urban housing estates (outdoor recreation grounds).

Purpose: This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of health education on adolescents' healthy lifestyle and health perceptions given an adolescent group. Materials and methods: The study's universe constitutes a total of 234 students attending the 9th grade of a high school. The study was constructed according to the single-group pre-test, quasi-experimental research model, in the 9th class in a high school. Data collection form, Adolescent lifestyle scale(ALS) and health perception scale were applied to the adolescents as a pre-test during the first phase of the study. The adolescents who were below the median score of ALS were accepted as the risk group and taken to the experimental group. Adolescents in the experimental group received a 6-week "Health Promotion Program" and a final test was given to the adolescents at the end of the training sessions. Descriptive statistics, Paired-t-test, independent-, and correlation were used in the evaluation of the data. Results: ALS total score was 94.52±9.53 before adolescents' health promotion education and 104.05±15.4 after education. The relationship between them was statistically significant(p<0.05). It was determined that the health perception of adolescents included in the study decreased after post-training total scores compared to the pre-training scores and that this relationship was statistically significant(p<0.05). Conclusion: Public health nurses may be recommended to develop healthy lifestyle behaviours by raising healthy adolescents by providing more adolescent education through school health services.

The paper presents a study based on the questionnaire given to participants of “Winners Training” – a training program which introduced healthy life style to junior high schools students in Mazovia province, and aimed to habituate them to it. The training program consisted of three simultaneous trainings: healthy nutrition training, fitness training and mental training concentrating mainly on development of positive thinking. Skills developed and practiced in these three dimensions were considered as competences necessary to develop a healthy life style and were promoted with the use of films. The paper provides the analysis of observations and opinions of students concerning their participation in the program, the difficulties they experienced and changes which they observed as a result.

The paper focuses on the importance of body image as a criterion for preventing the abuse of habit-forming substances. Within this context, spending leisure time actively is considered to fit in with the general trend of following and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, which is an essential contributory factor to the health status of an individual. At present, the expectation is that the ability to maintain a healthy lifestyle and prevent lifestyle diseases will be seriously affected by the Internet and by other interventions. The study found that there is indeed a close correlation between body image and the hazardous behaviour of children and adolescents, in particular with regards to eating disorders, thereby confirming the results of many other studies. Children that practice organised sports were also found to have a greater physical and emotional self-concept. However, no evidence could be found for a link between body image and sports, although sports constitute organised leisure time activities. Nevertheless, the correlation between the dissatisfaction with one´s body image and a healthy lifestyle definitely warrants greater interest to be shown in this topic.

Much like Western societies with developed economies, Polish society has become increasingly consumer-oriented, as is manifested by Poles’ desire for instant pleasure and the search for the meaning and sense of life through the purchase and consumption of goods and services available on the market. Such an approach could be positively or negatively connected with a healthy lifestyle. The aim of our study was to explore the relationship between a healthy lifestyle and the pro-consumer orientation in Poland. The study involved a survey conducted in 2016 on a nationwide sample of 1,000 people. The findings suggest that a pro-consumer orientation is positively correlated with those elements of a healthy lifestyle that are trendy and symbolize membership in certain social groups. On the other hand, this orientation is inversely correlated with behaviors that require constant self-control and do not bring immediate benefits.

In the article theoretical aspects of development of future teachers’ culture of health by facilities of physical education are revealed. The basic principles, goals and directions of culture of health forming in the students of higher pedagogical education institutions are characterized. The role of physical education in the formation of healthy lifestyle and health culture is outlined. The problem of development of future teachers’ culture of health, formation of stable motivation to physical culture, development of professional values are being investigated by modern scientists and specialists in training in higher education institutions. A number of researchers, referring to the definition of this concept, highlight its physical component, not paying enough attention to socio-psychological and spiritual-moral component of this concept. Therefore, for a holistic and purposeful development of future teachers’ culture of health must have a coherent work of physicians, physiologists, psychologists, sociologists, educators. However, health information that the student receives different stages of learning was not systematic. There is no integrative approach to solve problems related to health. Education on health typically orients young people mainly on treatment rather than on prevention of diseases not giving adequate attention to the ways of overcoming the risk factors and the ability of the organism to withstand adverse environmental influences. We believe that the system of higher pedagogical education should ensure the development of future teachers’ culture of health. The most effectively it can be done in the classroom of physical education. Higher school needs to upgrade the modern lessons of physical culture in such a way as to develop not only physical qualities of students, but also everything that is included in the concept «culture of health». Especially requires upgrading professional-pedagogical preparation, because the health of the younger generation depends on the teacher.

Klasa średnia w społeczeństwach rozwiniętych uważana jest za kategorię społeczną prowadzącą styl życia o nachyleniu prozdrowotnym. Jednocześnie coraz istotniejszym nurtem kulturowym w społeczeństwach rozwiniętych jest konsumpcjonizm. Uważa się, że praktyki prozdrowotne pozwalają klasie średniej na godzenie konsumpcjonizmu z charakterystyczną dla niej etyką pracy. Celem analizy było określenie związków między orientacją prokonsumpcyjną a prozdrowotnym stylem życia wśród warszawskiej klasy średniej. Sprawdzana była hipoteza, że orientacja prokonsumpcyjna jest pozytywnie związana z elementami prozdrowotnego stylu życia, które symbolizują przynależność do klasy średniej i są modne, oraz negatywnie z takimi, które wymagają stałej samokontroli, a jednocześnie nie przynoszą natychmiastowych korzyści. Wyniki badania częściowo potwierdziły tę hipotezę.

The middle class in developed societies is considered a social category leading a special health-oriented lifestyle. At the same time, consumerism is becoming an increasingly important feature of culture of developed societies. It is believed that the health practices allow the middle class to reconcile consumerism with the work ethic, which is considered its hallmark. The aim of the analysis is to define the relationship between consumer orientation and health-oriented lifestyle amongst the Warsaw middle class. The hypothesis was put that consumer orientation is positively associated with such elements of health-oriented lifestyle which symbolize belonging to the middle class and are trendy, and negatively with those that requires constant self-control, and yet do not bring immediate benefits. The results of the study confirmed these hypotheses in part.

The learning of scientific literature of the research problem showed the need of education sector in the field of highly qualified specialists who are capable of social adaptation and creative fulfillment based on saving high efficiency. Today the teacher is an example of a healthy lifestyle for those who study and is the bearer of a culture of health, which he intended to transmit to the younger generation. The culture of health as an integral characteristic of the personality and behavior and activity of the teacher is an indication of his general cultural development and at the same time – a component of his professional culture. Based on the above mentioned, the purpose of our study is creation of a culture of health as a component of teacher profession. The nature and multi-functional specificity of the phenomenon of “culture of health educators” are investigated in this paper as a component of professional culture that reflects the scientifically based and the experience of a healthy lifestyle is proved with the traditions of the nation that the teacher as his bearer passes to the younger generation in their professional activities. The organizational and pedagogical conditions are defined to ensure meaningful impact on the value-motivational, cognitive competence and effectively practical components of the culture of health as part of the professional culture of the teacher, that is self-test diagnostics of the health and the culture of health of the teachers; information support of continuing education of teachers in the field of health culture; personal self-organization of the teacher in a healthy lifestyle based on awareness of health as a value; interaction of the educational process on the basis of a healthy lifestyle; complex of medical and health conditions of health care of the teacher. It is proved that the culture of teacher’s health in the professional activity is a sign of his readiness to activities to preserve and improve the health of students. Creation of the teacher’s culture of health should be carried out on all stages of training in higher pedagogical institution by influencing the cognitive-intellectual, motivational and value-effective and practical areas that make up the integrity of the phenomenon of health (spiritual, moral, mental, physical, social, emotional, and reproductive etc.).

Cel badań. Wolontariat sportowy różni się od wolontariatu w ogóle. Wolontariusze sportowi mają odmienne motywy, czy stopień zaangażowania się (np. zwykle pozostają wolonta­riuszami dłużej). Przewiduje się, że ten typ wolontariatu będzie się bardzo szybko rozwijał z powodu coraz większej liczby imprez sportowych, które łączą się znacząco ze zdrowym stylem życia. Celem badań jest sprawdzenie, czy zachodzi relacja pomiędzy udziałem w wolontariacie sportowym a aktywnością fizyczną i zainteresowaniem sportem. Materiał i metody. Badania prowadzone były w dwóch grupach – badawczej i kontrolnej. Objęły one w sumie 138 respondentów. Metodą, która została użyta do badań był sondaż diagnostyczny w postaci ankiety. Metody statystyczne, które zostały wykorzystane do analizy wyników badań to test U Manna–Whitneya, test t-Studenta dla grup niezależnych, test 2. Obliczeń dokonano w programie Statistica 12 i Excel 2013. Wyniki. Obsługa imprez sportowych to domena młodych ludzi. Analiza wyników badań wykazała istotne różnice w aktywności fizycznej badanych grup. Wolontariusze z długim doświadczeniem angażowali się w pracę społeczne częściej, niż ci z krótkim stażem. Grupę kontrolną cechowała niska świadomość na temat wolontariatu sportowego. Wnioski. Istnieją znaczące różnice statystyczne w zainteresowaniu sportem zespołowym i indywidualnym w obu grupach. Potwierdzono, że wolontariusze sportowi istotnie częściej uprawiali sport rekreacyjny i wyczynowy niż osoby niezaangażowane w wolontariat. Sportowcy wyczynowi po zakończeniu kariery sportowej angażowali się w wolontariat sportowy.

Background. Sports volunteering is different from volunteering in general. Sports volunteers have specific motives and degree of commitment (e.g. usually they volunteer for a longer time). It is anticipated that this type of voluntary service will grow rapidly owing to the growing number of sports events associated with healthy lifestyle. The aim of the research was to verify whether there is a relationship between sports volunteering and physical activity or interest in sport. Material and methods. The research was conducted in two groups – the research and the control group. These involved the total of 138 people. The method used in the study was a diagnostic survey in the form of a questionnaire. The statistical methods of Mann-Whitney U test, t-Student test for independent samples, and test 2 were applied to analyse the results. The calculations were performed with the Statistica 12 and Excel 2013 software. Results. Volunteering in the service of sports events is dominated by young people. The analysis of the results showed significant differences in the physical activity of the studied groups. Volunteers with long experience engage in social work more often than those less experienced. The control group was characterized by low awareness of sports volunteering. Conclusions. There are significant differences between the groups regarding interest in both team and individual sport. It was proved that sports volunteers significantly more often practised professional and recreational sport than people not involved in volunteering. Professional athletes engaged in volunteering after retiring.

The aim of this research was to study the dynamics of motor activity of urban pupils of secondary school age from 2010 to 2015. With the help of questionnaire «My physical activity», which included 12 questions about the physical activity both at school and outside school hours in adapted for secondary school age children form, two surveys with a five-year interval were conducted in Kyiv. To establish the common patterns of physical activity assessment, the integral indicator of the level of physical activity has been calculated. The quantitative characteristics of the influence factors have been assessed by calculating the relative risk. It is determined that in the process of the study the integral estimation of the average value of physical activity is decreased by 16,4 % (p<0,001). In the 2010-2015 period we have determined (p<0,05) the following increase: the proportion of the pupils that do not do morning exercises - in 1,7 times, the proportion of children who do not come to the school yard during the break - in 2,7 times, the proportion of children who are not engaged in the lessons of physical training in full force - in 3 times; significantly, the proportion of children walking 1,5 hours or more in the open air decreased by 1,3 time; the proportion of children who are engaged in «physical activity minutes» in the classrooms decreased by 1,4 times and the proportion of children attending sports/dance clubs decreased by 1.8 times. The probability of diseases of the pupils with low physical activity increased significantly by 20% in comparison with average and high (p<0,01). The diseases, in turn, increase the likelihood of low physical activity almost in 2 times. That’s why the sufficient physical activity as an important criterion for a healthy lifestyle of the middle-aged pupils is decreasing by increasing the popular types of non-physical activity (computer games, social networks) and shows a lack of motivation for responsible enhancing of their physical activity. In addition, a dramatic progression of non-communicable diseases among schoolchildren (scoliosis, obesity, neurosis) makes this problem an issue for further study, as well as development and implementation of hygiene measures to promote physical activity among the pupils.
