Abstract

Cilj rada je istražiti motive održavanja fizičke aktivnosti na primjeru polaznika joga centara.
Zahvaljući holističkom pristupu čovjeku kroz njegovo fizičko i psihičko zdravlje, joga postaje
sve popularnija kao oblik fizičke aktivnosti. Zbog današnjeg užurbanog načina života, velikom
je broju ljudi teško održati ustrajnost u tjelovježbi. Međutim, s druge strane, postoji skupina
ljudi koji su ustrajni u održavanju fizičke aktivnosti. Teorije motivacije, koje objašnjavaju
čovjekovo ponašanje iz... More različitih perspektiva, služe za istraživanje motiva koji utječu na
ponašanje pojedinca. Za objašnjenje ustrajnosti u fizičkoj aktivnosti na primjeru polaznika joga
centara odabrana je teorija Modela predanosti sportu, po kojoj postoje pet čimbenika koji
oblikuju ustrajnost pojedinca: užitak u sportu, osobna ulaganja, alternativne mogućnosti,
dostupne mogućnosti i društveni pritisci. Osim dubinskog intervjua, za istraživanje je korišten
postojeći anketni upitnik Modela predanosti sportu, koji je bio modificiran za potrebe rada.
Istraživanje je potvrdilo pretpostavku o utjecaju užitka u sportu i osobnih ulaganja kao
čimbenika koji najviše utječu na ustrajnost u fizičkoj aktivnosti. S obzirom da joga nije sport,
pretpostavke o utjecaju alternativnih mogućnosti i društvenih pritisaka kroz dubinski intervju i
anketni upitnik pokazale su manji utjecaj od izvornih pretpostavki Modela predanosti sportu,
po kojem navedeni čimbenici imaju veliki utjecaj na ustrajnost. Dostupne mogućnosti kao
čimbenik pokazale su djelomičan utjecaj na motivaciju, do granice koja se tiče intrinzičnih
motiva pojedinca, koji su se naposlijetku pokazali kao najvažniji za ustrajnost u joga praksi,
odnosno fizičkoj aktivnosti. Less

Abstract (english)

The aim of this study is to investigate the motives of maintaining physical activity on the
example of students in yoga centers. Thanks to its holistic approach on physical and mental
health, yoga is becoming more popular as a form of physical activity. Due to today's busy
lifestyle, a great number of people find it difficult to maintain persistence in exercise. On the
other hand, there is a group of people keen on maintaining physical activity. Theories of
motivation, which are explaining... More human behavior from different perspectives, are used to study
the motives that influence behavior of an individual. For an explanation of perseverance in
physical activity on the case of students in yoga centers, the Sport commitment model has been
used, by which there are five factors shaping individual perseverance: sport enjoyment,
personal investments, alternative opportunities, involvement opportunites and social constrains.
In addition to in-depth interview, the study used existing questionnaire of Sport commitement
model, which has been modified for the purposes of this study. The research confirmed the
assumption about the impact of sport enjoyment and personal investments as the factors
influencing the persistence of physical activity the most. Since yoga is not a sport, assumptions
about the impact of alternative options and social contraints through in-depth interview and
questionnaire have shown less impact than the original model assumptions, in which these
factors have a major impact on persistence. Involvement opportunities as a factor showed a
partial effect on motivation, to the extent that concerns the intrinsic motivations of the
individual who is ultimately proved to be the most important for the determination in yoga
practice, and physical activity in general. Less
