Abstract

The aim of the research was to establish a hierarchy of motifs directing the recreational activeness of girls during the period of adolescence as well as the changes within this hierarchy achieved together with age. It was assumed that through recreational activeness there is achieved a form of compensation for negative emotional stress.Material and method. A 30-individual strong group of girls from large towns was examined (12, 15, 18 year olds). The evaluations of the level of negative emotional states were carried out by means of: C.D. Spielberger’s STAI test (a scale of x-2, fear-feature) and the test of Mood and Humour by A.H. Bussá and A. Durkee (the general level and occurring forms of aggression). An author-devised questionnaire on Motivational Dispositions served to establish the motifs of recreational activeness amongst those examined. This was worked on in conjunction with the concept of recreational activeness expounded by R. Winiarski (1991).Results and conclusions. The effect of the research was the establishment of the levels of negative emotional stress as well as the hierarchy of motifs for recreational activeness and their changes amongst the age groups examined.
