This pilot study of lifestyle of 11-15 years old students with visual impairment is the spin-off project from longitudinal HBSC study (The Health Behavior in School Aged Children) entitled disHBSC. The aim of the study was to analyze the determinants of physical activity and lifestyle of 11- to 15-year-old students with visual impairment, who are actively engaged in sports. The pilot study is based on original HBSC survey, which was adapted to meet specific needs of children with visual impairments. DisHBSC survey contained 48 questions divided to the following areas: demographical information, nutritional habits, physical activity and leisure, health, abuse of drugs, self-esteem, violence, school, family and peers. We have found surprising results regarding the amount of weekly physical activity, where only 9% of students met WHO minimal suggestions for physical activity. More than 50% of students identified school-based physical education as the main area of physical activities. We found alarming examples in school-based bullying. 11.7% of boys and 21% of girls experienced bullying 2-3 times in the past months. The main motive for engagement in a physical activity was to improve health. The most preferred activity is swimming, adapted aquatics and ball games. Our respondents spend significant time in sedentary activities and screen time, less in from of TV but more with PC, tablets or smartphones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
