Nors laikomasi nuostatos, kad kūno kultūra yra viena iš pagrindimą emocinės gerovės sąlygų, ir yra atliekami įvairūs tyrimai šioje srityje, tačiau Lietuvos kaime tani dar nėra skiriama pakankamai dėmesio. Tik turint informacijos apie kaimo žmonių gyvensenos ypatumus, i ėliau galima kurti ir taikyti įvairias kaimo žmonėms skirtas kūno kultūros veiklos programas. Tai ir lėmė mūsų tyrimą, kurio tikslas buvo nustatyti kaimo moterų mankštinimosi motyvų ir galimybių ypatumus. Tiriamąją imtį sudarė 405 kaimo moterys, paklausančios Lietuvos ūkininkių draugijai ir atsitiktiniu tikimybiniu būdu parinktos iš visos Lietuvos apskričių. Tyrimai vyko anketinės apklausos būdu pagal mūsų parengtą klausimyną, kuriame buvo pateikti 54 klausimai apie požiūrį į kūno kultūrą, galimybes užsiimti šia veikla laisvalaikiu. Gauti rezultatai parodė, kad daugiau kaip pusė visų tiriamųjų domisi kūno kultūra. Svarbiausi nurodyti mankštinimosi motyvai yra: sveikatos gerinimas ir noras sustiprėti fiziškai. Tačiau motyvų išskyrimo svarbą diferencijavo ir socialiniai bei demografiniai rodikliai. Jaunesnės tiriamosios dažniau nurodė išvaizdos gerinimo ir svorio kontrolės motyvus, o vyresnės - norą gerinti sveikatą, sustiprėti fiziškai bei atsipalaiduoti nuo darbų. Be to, nustatyta, kad didelį poveikį tiriamosioms darytų tai, jog kūno kultūros veikla kartu užsiimtų kiti šeimos nariai ir draugai.One can find an attitude in our society that physical culture is one of the most important conditions for personality's emotional welfare. There was also some research carried out, but in Lithuanian villages there is still not enough consideration about physical culture. Research can create and help to applic various programs of physical activity only in case it is enough information about peculiarities of life of rural inhabitants. We feel shortage of theoretical and empirical research in this field, thus the aim of our research was to identify motives and possibilities of rural women for exercising. We interviewed 405 rural women, who are members of Association of female farmers. Using questionnaire (54 questions) survey, the standpoint of rural women and their possibilities for exercising during leisure time were investigated. According to the results of research more than half of interviewed women are interested in physical activity because of health motives. The difference was determined by peculiarities of social and demographics factors -junior respondents prefer exterior and weight loss motives for exercising, senior women - robust health and relaxation motives. Purposeful support from family members or even exercising together supposed to have a great influence for respondents

Assessment of emotional and behaviour disorders of girls living in restricted environment and intervention strategies through physical activity

Background. Students with emotional and behavioural disorders (EBD) represent one of the most challenging groups not only to provide effective educational services, but often present complex challenges for schools, families, and society. There is a lack of information about concrete research-based interventions and practices which could be helpful for delinquent students with EBD to cope with problem behaviour more effectively.

Analysis of our study results reveals that the girls with delinquent behaviour living in CSC show the risk of having problems in school, high level of social stress, anxiety, sense of inadequacy, atypicality, attention problems, hyperactivity and lower levels of self-esteem, self-reliance, interpersonal relations.
