In the past few decades, sport and tourism, two significant industries, have gone through a phase of rapid development. The relationship between the two fields is becoming more and more recognized by economic actors, policymakers and social scientists as well; nevertheless, there is a question of how widespread active sport tourism is in the different social groups of Hungarian society, and what the perspectives of sport tourism are as a leisure time activity in the future. The objective of the current paper is to answer these questions, based on survey research conducted in a representative sample (n=1027) of the Hungarian adult population. In the first phase of data analysis, the author focused on the following two questions: (1) What percentage of the population is engaged in doing regular physical exercise, and travelling during their holidays? (2) Is there a relationship between doing exercise and travelling? Based on the two dimensions (physical exercise and travelling) four groups could be separated, the in-depth analysis of the groups was carried out in the second phase of the data analysis. During this phase, the following questions were in focus: (1) How can the four groups be characterized concerning their socio-economic status? (2) What leisure activities are characteristic of them? (3) What can be said about the social networks of the members of these groups? (4) How can we characterize their attitudes to healthy lifestyle, and within this, sport? According to the results, the social basis of active sport tourism is not very wide. The majority of the Hungarian population is hindered by worsening living standards and worsening health levels, and by the lack of adequate knowledge about active sport tourism and the positive impact of it on the quality of life. A further problem is that although many people are familiar with the influence of lifestyle on health, and recognize the benefits of exercise in theory, in reality few people are involved in sporting activities, and for many, doing exercise is not a source of pleasure. That is why it is important that the messages referring to the positive impact of regular physical exercise reach the different social groups. In these messages, besides the often stressed health-preserving role, social and recreational aspects of sport as a leisure time activity should also be emphasized.

Globalization leaves its footprint on the leisure market contributing to the global popularization of brand new forms of recreation. A perfect example of such instant diffusion of innovation on a global scale is the rapid development of escape rooms. The aim of the article is to try and explain the extraordinary popularity of escape rooms in Poland, mainly through an analysis of what they offer. The author presents the origins and development of this particular form of recreation, discusses the location of nearly 600 facilities functioning in 2016, as well as giving a detailed description of escape rooms in the ten large Polish cities. The study leads to the conclusion that the phenomenon of escape rooms stems from, among other things, the fundamental assumptions of the experience economy.

Czech tramping can seem to be a mere leisure-time activity of a selected segment of the Czech population (especially young people but by far not only of them), but its essence is much more complex and its importance usually bigger. Tramping does not only consist in unrestricted wandering through freely accessible nature (usually at weekends), in camping and development of peculiar festivities, but it also demonstrates its specific material and spiritual attributes, significantly influenced by scouting and woodcraft. It was mainly the tramps´ code of ethics, applied not only to tramping itself, that defined ethical attitudes of the tramps towards the environment and members of the majority society. Over the last one hundred years, Czech tramping has become a real lifestyle of its bearers not only in the period of their youth, but often also later in their life, often until their death. This lifestyle has always been a specific, even in the context of a certain space, non-consumption-oriented, and alternative way how to spend leisure time.

In most societies disabled people constitute a group with the lowest level of activity of occupational activity as well as organization of leisure time. These two dimensions in a very essential way influence each other depending on socio-demographic characteristics. In the case of disabled people vocational activity fulfils not only an economic function but also holds essential functions of rehabilitation and integration. Making proper use of free time has even greater influence on progress in rehabilitation, especially in the social sphere. This study aimed at examining the participation in leisure activities among disabled people in Lubelskie Voivodship in the context of occupational activity.

Osoby niepełnosprawne w większości społeczeństw stanowią grupę o najmniejszym poziomie aktywności, tak w obszarze aktywności zawodowej, jak i wolnoczasowej. Te dwa obszary w sposób istotny wpływają na siebie i w zależności od cech społeczno-demograficznych, determinują się nawzajem. W przypadku osób niepełnosprawnych aktywność zawodowa spełnia nie tylko funkcję ekonomiczną, lecz pełni również istotną funkcję rehabilitacyjną i integracyjną. Jeszcze bardziej na postępy rehabilitacji, szczególnie społecznej, wpływa właściwe wykorzystanie czasu wolnego. Celem pracy było zbadanie uczestnictwa w czasie wolnym niepełnosprawnych województwa lubelskiego w kontekście ich aktywności zawodowej.

The article entitled “The consequences of structural transformations of leisure time on the ship” discusses the transformation of the structure of leisure time on the ship. The analysis is based empirical research carried out at an interval of forty years. The research material is supplemented with a statement posted on the seafarers' online forum.

Then – referring to the classification of selected authors – the basic functions of leisure time were characterized, including the perspective of social pedagogy (having a rest, playing, self-development). Next, the essence of social work was defined and its essential functions were listed. Finally, the attention was paid to leisure time as an important indicator of social participation and one of the key domains of social work. Here the concept of Pierre Bourdieu’s capital was referred to. In the final part of the study, the educational dimension of social work in the context of leisure time was pointed out.

During a single season, animators work with several thousand hotel guests. Parents and their children expect entertainment and attractions at a high level. Certainly, animation is a lot of fun. However, it is associated with numerous challenges. The aim of this study described in this article was to identify the most common benefits and challenges reported by animators in the survey conducted the by authors. The first part outlines the job of a leisure animator in the light of the literature. The main part is concerned with the benefits of working as an animator and challenges that animators can face in their work. The study is based on data collected during an online questionnaire survey involving 110 animators from Poland, working in various travel agencies. The findings confirm the main hypothesis of the study: opportunities to interact with people and travel are the most frequently reported advantages of leisure animation. Animation is also seen as a chance for self-fulfillment and continuous development. However, the job is associated with a lot of stress and long working hours, which constitute one of its challenges.

Psychologically and physically straining work conditions increase the risk of low back pain (LBP) development. According to recent recovery theories, leisure time recovery can counteract the negative influences of work stress on health. Similarly, a recent empirical work has indicated a moderating role of recovery on the link between stress and health issues. In this paper, a theoretical model is deduced to integrate the moderating effects of recovery on work stress and LBP development. Based on theoretical and empirical results, 2 separate recovery paths are distinguished: on the one hand, recovery can prevent the experience of stress because a well-recovered person can cope more easily with work demands; while on the other hand, recovery refills the depleted resources after confrontation with work strain and reduces stress experiences. Given that work strains is a main risk factor for LBP development, recovery in leisure time seems to be a highly relevant aspect, which has not been investigated to date in the field of LBP.

Consumer behavior in developed economies is the subject of constant interest more focused and is contained in many theoretical and practical studies. Consumer behavior has the character of a dynamic nature, ie the growth needs and desires and the possibility of satisfying them changes both quantitatively and qualitatively consumption. Structural changes affect consumer segments, broken down into smaller parts market and leads to greater individualization. High material consumption and consumption of services symbolize prosperity of developed countries, prosperity and high standard of living in them. Qualitative leap in the development of consumer orientation occurred in the sense that it is in developed countries waived unilateral preference of material consumption and emphasizing its quantitative growth. Greater importance and attention is paid to the quality of life, the ethical and aesthetic development. Quality of life is associated with a sense of selfactualization needs, creative personal development, active life position, multiplicity of individual consumption and active multilateral use of leisure time. To understand consumer behavior in the tourism market we should build on the knowledge of theoretical approaches to this issue.

Regular physical activity positively affects the entire organism and also the vitality of the human body. The aim of our study was to analyse the attitude of recreational swimmers to other sports activities. The research group involved 55 participants from Košice (35 men aged 34±11,7 and 20 women aged 33±10,7). As a research method, we used a questionnaire with mostly closed questions. The answers of recreational swimmers suggest a positive finding that recreational swimming inspires them to practice also other sports activities. Most of the recreational swimmers practice other sports activities that are not organized but they do other sports activity 1–5 times per week. The men prefer and practice more sports activities per week than women (p < 0,05). The participants mostly practice cycling, running, men also play football and hockey, wheres women practice fitness and dance. Most of the participants would like to do more activities but they are limited by lack of free time and specifically women are limited by family care (p < 0,05). All the participants practice other sports activities because of their own need, whilst women chose to maintain appropriate body weight and good figure as the significant reasons for practicing the sports activity. In general, we can conclude that recreational swimmers, who practice swimming 1–2 times per week and also practice 1–5 times per week other sports activities, have enough physical activity positively influencing their health and physical condition.

Regularna aktywność fizyczna pozytywnie wpływa na cały organizm, jak również na witalność ludzkiego ciała. Celem naszego badania było zanalizowanie nastawienia osób pływających rekreacyjnie do innych czynności sportowych. Badaniem objęto grupę 55 mieszkańców Koszyc (35 mężczyzn w wieku 34±11,7 lat, oraz 20 kobiet w wieku 33±10,7 lat). Zastosowaną metodą badawczą był kwestionariusz zawierający głównie pytania szczegółowe. Odpowiedzi udzielone przez osoby pływające rekreacyjnie sugerują pozytywne stwierdzenie, że pływanie rekreacyjne pobudza ich do uprawiania również innych dyscyplin sportu. Większość uczestników chciałaby brać udział w jeszcze innych Odpowiedzi udzielone przez osoby pływające rekreacyjnie sugerują pozytywne stwierdzenie, że pływanie rekreacyjne pobudza ich do uprawiania również innych dyscyplin sportu. Mężczyźni uprawiają w tygodniu więcej dyscyplin sportowych niż kobiety (p < 0,05). Uczestnicy przeważnie uprawiają kolarstwo i bieganie, mężczyźni grają w piłkę nożną i w hokeja, natomiast kobiety uczęszczają na fitness i tańce. Większość uczestników chciałaby brać udział w jeszcze innych zajęciach, ale są ograniczani przez brak wolnego czasu oraz – szczególnie kobiety – przez obowiązki domowe (p < 0,05). Wszyscy uczestnicy uprawiają inne dyscypliny sportu ze względu na własne potrzeby, natomiast kobiety wybierają te, które pomagają im utrzymać odpowiednią wagę ciała i zgrabną figurę, co jest ważnym argumentem na rzecz uprawianego przez nie sportu. Uogólniając, można wnioskować, że osoby uprawiające pływanie rekreacyjne 1–2 razy w tygodniu oraz biorące udział w innych zajęciach sportowych 1–5 razy w tygodniu zażywają wystarczającą dawkę aktywności fizycznej pozytywnie wpływającą na ich zdrowie i warunki fizyczne.

Objective of the study: The study aims at diagnosing the opinions of parents of children with minor and moderate intellectual disabilities on the forms and significance of leisure time behaviour. Materials and methods: The study was conducted in 2017 among the parents of students of the Maria Montessori Special Primary School at the 102nd Special School Complex in Poznań. The author’s own research questionnaire was used, containing questions about forms of spending free time, the amount of free time available and the participation of children in extracurricular classes and out-of-school activities, as perceived by parents. Results: The majority of parent respondents, regardless of the degree of their children’s disability, stated that their children had a lot of free time, at least two hours per day on weekdays and over six hours per day during the weekend. In the perception of most parents, during summer and winter holidays their children have whole days free. The respondents notice both active and passive forms of leisure activities pursued by their sons and daughters. The parents confirmed the participation of their children in numerous extracurricular classes and out-of-school activities. The study revealed that parents, siblings, or other family members were most often partners of leisure for intellectually disabled children. All the  respondents declare that they know what their children are doing in their leisure time and who they spend it with.

The study aimed at diagnosing the opinions of parents of children with mild and moderate intellectual disability on the forms and significance of leisure time behaviour. The study revealed that parents, siblings, or other family members were most often partners of leisure for intellectually disabled children. All the respondents declare that they know what their children are doing in their leisure time and who they spend it with. Leisure time appears to be the area of limitless rehabilitation opportunities, and therefore it should occupy a significant position both in scientific research and (perhaps predominantly) in practical activities undertaken to help children with intellectual disability. Extensive activity of the school, family environment and special education teachers themselves is required to implement leisure time as a vital element in the process of revalidation of intellectually disabled children.

Czas wolny, jako ważna kategoria aktywności życiowej współczesnych społeczeństw pojawił się dopiero w XIX wieku i odtąd jego wymiar i znaczenie rosną. Obecnie czas wolny interpretowany jest w wieloraki sposób. W rozumieniu potocznym traktuje się go jako czas, który wymaga racjonalnego i intencjonalnego zagospodarowania. Właściwie wykorzystany czas wolny przynosi wiele korzyści nie tylko osobistych, ale i społecznych, pozwala bowiem na utrzymanie zdrowia psychofizycznego a zwłaszcza na wzbogacanie własnej osobowości i tożsamości. Kształtowanie potrzeb i postawy do aktywnego i sensownego spędzania czasu wolnego powinno zacząć się już w dzieciństwie, stąd też celem niniejszego opracowania jest próba określenia zachowań rekreacyjnych realizowanych w czasie wolnym dzieci i młodzieży w środowisku wiejskim.

Leisure time, as an important category of active life of modern societies, emerged only in the nineteenth century and since then its dimension and importance has been growing. Nowadays, free time is interpreted in different ways. Commonly it is treated as the time which requires rational and intentional planning. Free time which is properly used brings many benefits, not only personal but also social, as it allows for the maintenance of mental and physical health and especially for the enrichment of one's own personality and identity. Forming the needs and the right attitude to active and meaningful leisure time activities should already be initiated in childhood, hence the aim of this paper is to attempt to determine the behavior of recreational leisure activities of children and young people in rural areas.

The study uses advertising sections of the widely read and successful weekly Humoristické listy [Humorous Papers] as a source of the history of music. Through an analysis of advertisement departments, it maps the city inhabitants´ opportunities in the late nineteenth century to fill their leisure time with musical activities. The advertisements create a space where the offer encounters the inquiry. They thus become a witness to contemporary tastes, preferences, and mentalities. The research shows that alongside traditional musical instruments, which required at least a rudimentary interpretation skills to master the play, instruments operating by mechanical means (automatophones) or those designed without much artistic ambition for profane social entertainment (e.g. bigotphones) were gaining in popularity. The space in which contact with music took place was also expanding. Various refreshment venues allured people with regular concerts. The submitted text is a contribution to the history of popular music in the Czech lands, and it partly reflects the public taste of the time.

Streszczenie Człowiek powinien uczyć się racjonalnego spędzania czasu wolego. Szczególnie istotnym jest, aby jego zagospodarowanie wiązało się ściśle z aktywnymi formami szeroko rozumianej kultury fizycznej. Podstawowe umiejętności winne być wyniesione ze środowiska rodzinnego, by na tej podstawie mogły być następnie rozwijane i utrwalane w procesie edukacji. W polskiej myśli pedagogicznej wspomnianym zagadnieniem zajmowało się wielu badaczy, a na szczególną uwagę – jak się wydaje – zasługują doniesienia: Ryszarda Wroczyńskiego, Sergiusza Hessena. Bogdana Suchodolskiego i Bogdana Nawroczyńskiego. W wielu opracowaniach doszukać się można wychowawczych, społecznych i zdrowotnych walorów racjonalnego zagospodarowania czasu wolnego.

Due to the constant chase for achieving professional success, human life is tied to a permanent stress. One of the forms of releasing stress is various kinds of activity and increasingly ones that are extreme. We require a total cut-off from everyday life issue, redirecting our attention to another track. Events that include elements of extremes are getting more and more popular. Undertaking this kind of activity requires a strong will and fortitude, as it helps to overcome our own weaknesses and fears. We are looking for new experiences that could provide us with an adequate dose of adrenaline. One such form is the Slackline. It is a new and dynamic form of physical activity. Its history is relatively short, but it is fast in shaping new trends and records. Slackline is all about body balance and this is done by walking on a tape stretched between two points. This activity involves people from all over the world who meet together during many competitions and festivals. Walking on the tape is not the only goal in itself. Currently, it is often treated as a lifestyle and philosophy of life.

Rozwój usług gastronomicznych i turystycznych w Polsce jest ściśle ze sobą powiązany. Pomiędzy gastronomią a turystyką tworzy się sprzężenie zwrotne. Dzięki rozwojowi turystyki i zwiększonej liczbie odwiedzających Polskę turystów jest potrzeba stworzenia nowych placówek w sektorze gastronomicznym. To z kolei zachęca turystów do przyjazdów do miejsc o rozwiniętej infrastrukturze, między innymi gastronomicznej. Z badań wynika, że Polacy coraz częściej podróżują w celach turystycznych i coraz częściej korzystają z usług gastronomicznych. Blisko połowa konsumentów usług gastronomicznych w aglomeracji warszawskiej deklarowała, że wyjazdy turystyczne i podróże są okazją sprzyjającą korzystaniu z usług gastronomicznych. Wzrost realnych dochodów ludności, wzrastający standard życia, zmieniający się styl życia i wydłużanie się czasu wolnego będą w dalszym ciągu wpływać na rosnący popyt na usługi turystyczne i gastronomiczne.
