摘要
Engaging in sports activities certainly possesses multiple facets. Notwithstanding the apparent health dimension, doing sports is a pertinent social activity, and is of particular importance for the young population, including students. The main aim of this paper is to present the key contours of sports performance of the student population in Zagreb. The focus is on the examination of the following three aspects: self-estimation of (non)obtained sport skills and capabilities, attributes of health condition and attitudes towards sports as a social activity. The empirical analysis is based on survey data gathered in February 2016 on a non-probable occasional sample (N= 2400) that comprised attendants of mandatory physical education courses at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (of the University of Zagreb) and the Faculty of Science (of the University of Zagreb). The diversity of fields of study allows for interesting comparisons among students of different study groups. Despite certain slight differences, preliminary findings indicate quite a poor general engagement in sports activities and a relatively weak level of attained abilities. At the same time, sport is considered as a valuable activity in itself which also contains the important social dimension of nurturing friendship and connecting with other people. In conclusion, the necessity for the systematic organization of sports activities and their more intensive incorporation in the academic environment, school system and at different societal levels, is emphasized. Besides, the need of sensitizing students, the young population and overall public about the importance of doing a sport, recreation and physical activity, also of pursuing a healthy life-style, is underlined. The urgency of multidisciplinary scientific inquiry of sport is highlighted, as well.
