“…Self-efficacy is one of the factors that affects behavior. With an increased belief in one's own possibilities to solve tasks, there is the motivation to form intentions and undertake action [35][36][37][38]. An increase in mental fortitude could also be linked to recommendations for coaches to put emphasis on the development of high determination amongst their students [39].…”

Background: The aim of this paper is to expand the knowledge on the subject matter of the relations between behavior that is geared towards health and the feeling of effectiveness in the context of martial arts tourism in the form of Taekwon-do training summer camps. Method: The research encompassed 58 people (32 men and 26 women) who train Taekwon-do (ITF) (aged: 26.36 ± 8.97; scope: 18–45 years of age). The measurement of the feeling of effectiveness and healthy behavior was conducted by means of standardized tools, including the General Self-Efficacy Scale. Results: The analyzed fighters who participated in the research in the majority of the sports meetings declared a higher level of the feeling of effectiveness (p < 0.001). Through cluster analysis emerged two groups, with a significant difference between self-efficacy (mean value of 20.05 points in contrast to 33.93 points in the second group). The group with higher psychological indices values attended a higher amount of summer camps during their practice history (at least two camps attended in the second cluster). Conclusion: Sports tourism connected with martial arts, as exemplified by training groups (professionally organized training camps) of Taekwon-do (ITF), is connected with the increased feeling of personal effectiveness, while also serving the enhancement of psycho-physical health, well-being, and the development of social skills.

“…The results and considerations presented in this work may contain material for comparisons for other researchers and may indicate the path for further research of an interdisciplinary character. This research provides examples of striving towards the optimization of the psycho-physical functioning which will have a positive impact on the later stages of the life of an individual (including the elderly stage), which in turn may take multiple routes (Góra, Wąsik, 2014;Kmiecik, Bakota, Płomiński, 2020;Pivovarnik, 2016;Wąsik, 2010;Wąsik, Shan, 2015).…”

Introduction. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the development of scientific output, while also to define the scope of the subject matter of research in the sphere of the physical activity of senior citizens. The research process concentrates on the following research questions: In what way has the research output developed in the field of research on the physical activity of senior citizens? Who is the principal participant (countries, universities, authors, source titles in terms of accumulating the research subject matter in a particular field? What are the prominent subject areas that attract the greatest attention among the academic environment? Research material. Scopus data was availed in the process of selecting a research sample as the source of bibliometric data. The research data (N = 415) consisted of publications which included such phrases in their contents as: "Physically Active Elderly, Physically Active Seniors, Physically Active Older Adults" in their titles or key words. The process of analysis and visualization of the findings was supported by the use of MS Excel software. Results. The research illustrated that the physical activity of the elderly is a field of science that has a long tradition. In 2011, it gained increasingly high levels of interest among the academic environment, which in turn bore fruit in terms of the breakthrough growth in the number of publications in 2014 that are indexed in Scopus data. This scientific output encompasses 20 research areas. Conclusions. The principal areas of the greatest number of publications relate to the activity of the elderly are to be found in the areas of medical science and health science. The main authors and co-authors in this field of research are as follows: the representatives of the USA, whereas the most productive research institute is The University of British Columbia. The author of the largest number of publications is Rodríguez-Artalejo from Spain. The main sponsors of research activities in the sphere of the physical activity of the elderly are the National Institutes of Health.

“…15 In Poland, data on yoga among adults in different age groups, which could represent a wider cross-section of society, are lacking. 26 Although yoga has been practised in Poland for many years, it has never been widely accepted and many Polish citizens have never tried yoga at all; some scepticism likely stems from popular Catholic Church doctrine which frowns on the activity's ties to Jainism, Buddhism, Hinduism and other non-Christian faiths. 27 Even if not every book on yoga promotes Hindu gods, and not every yoga class has pagan statuary, some do, and this concern was voiced in the 'Letter to the bishops of the Catholic Church of some aspects of Christian meditation'.…”

Are yoga and physical activity determinants of quality of life in Polish adults? a cross-sectional study

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

ObjectivesYoga is an ancient form of physical activity (PA) that encompasses meditation, stretching and breathing techniques. Although the benefits of PA and associated lifestyle interventions are clear, we here addressed the paucity of evidence regarding the specific relationship between yoga and quality of life (QOL) in adults in Poland. We hypothesised that participation in PA and yoga could result in a positive impact on QOL.DesignCross-sectional, self-administered questionnaire-based survey. Both the quantitative and qualitative variables were statistically compared. Multivariate analyses were performed using linear regression. Results were determined based on age, sex and education level; a p<0.05 was considered significant.SettingQuestionnaires were delivered to participants online, at high schools and universities, and in elderly communities in Poland.Participants714 polish citizens aged over 18 participated in the study; there are no specific entry and exclusion criteria besides age.ResultsStatistically significant differences (p<0.05) were observed between the QOL of the physically active group (PAG) and non-PAG (N-PAG). Meanwhile, yoga practice was revealed to have a significant effect on QOL; QOL was found to be statistically higher (p<0.001) in the PAG with yoga (PAG-Y) (4.29±0.66) than in the N-PAG (3.83±0.92) and PAG without yoga (4.07±0.68).ConclusionsThe study shows that both regular PA and yoga practices could improve QOL; however, PAG-Y produced higher QOL scores than PA of other types. This outcome may be explained by the impact of physiological and psychological aspects within yoga practice. These results suggest that this unique combination impacts health more positively than other kinds of PA alone.
