Abstract
The investigation was performed in order to establish the effect of the social status on taking up kinesiologic activities. The data obtained in the questionnaire for assessment of the social status and scales for establishing the intensity of kinesiologic activity were processed by means of the factor and regression analysis. The results show:
(1) there are relatively low but statistically significant relations between the social status and taking up kinesiologic activities.
(2) the greatest positive effect on taking up kinesiologic activities is the dimension named as the socio-political status, to a certain extent also the so called life style, political orientation and the basic residential status. The negative effect, although statistically smaller is the educational status of the mother and the basic economic status.
Besides the statistical reasons there are some objectives ones of the obtained results. A greater participation of women in sports is related with the status of the parents in society and at work, but also with the nature of influence of the social environment on the individual, particularly in childhood, as well as with the political orientation and a higher standard of living, while the educational status of the mother and the basic economic status.
Besides the statistical reasons there are some objective ones of the obtained results. A greater participation of women in sports is related with the status of the parents in society and at work, but also with the nature of influence of the social environment on the individual, particularly in childhood, as well as with the political orientation a higher standard of living, while the educational status of the mother is on the margins of positive social power, at least in the case of women who participated in this investigation.
A few hypotheses have been postulated for these results that should be checked since they differ from some investigations carried out so far.
