Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this study has been to describe the possible differences in children’s habits of physical activity in three different schools in the Stockholm area.• What types of physical activity occur with the students in these three schools?• How active are the children in these three schools and what types of sports occur?• Do the boys and girls activities differ in a comparison between these three schools?Method: The research is accomplished by a quantitative study where the data has been collected from a poll which was handed out in the classes. The poll is made of own questions and formerly used poll questions. The answering alternatives are mostly closed. The selected group is based of students from class 5 and 6 from three schools in the Stockholm County. There were 52 boys and 65 girls included in the research. A total of 117 students participated. Eleven students dropped out and the reason was student absence the day of the poll.Results: The purpose of our research was to give an overall mapping of the athletic activity in the spear time, both in organised form and unorganised, in organisations and outside of organisations, and the physical activity of these youths in their daily life. The goal which was fulfilled was too see if there was any difference in habits of physical activities with the students in three different schools in the Stockholm area. Too see how active the children were in these three schools and what activities occurred. Also we wanted to see if the boys and the girls’ activities differ in a comparison between these three schools.In some cases you see clear differences and in some it doesn’t differentiate very much between the three schools. We can clearly see that the spear time interests with both boys and girls surrounds being with friends, doing sports activities and listening to music while on the boys side in all of the three schools there is a limited interest in animal activities and being at home with parents. On the girls side there is a limited interest in motor- and nature activities.
