    Gender differences in seasonal decline of physical activity in natural environments and their associations with health limitations
    (Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2026) Baisová, Karin; Marko, Michal; Adamčák, Štefan; Luptáková, Jana
    Physical activity in natural environments plays an important role in adolescent health, yet seasonality and health barriers may affect participation. Differences in gender may indicate needs for targeted interventions; therefore, the study examined differences in gender in seasonal changes in physical activity and their relationship to health limitations during summer and winter. The sample included 1,034 adolescents (boys, N = 545; girls, N = 489). Differences in responses underwent evaluation with the chi-square test and Cramér’s V. Seasonal changes in activity (summer - winter) underwent analysis with the Mann-Whitney U test. Seasonal differences in health limitations underwent assessment with McNemar’s test for paired binary data. Statistically significant differences in gender appeared in both the frequency of physical activity and health barriers (p < .001; small to medium effects). Girls showed significantly greater seasonal declines in physical activity (p < .001; r = .10). Among girls, health limitations increased significantly during winter (p = .007), whereas no significant seasonal changes appeared among boys. These findings highlight greater seasonal vulnerability among girls in relation to physical activity in natural environments. We recommend targeted school- and community-based programs that support winter physical activity and reduce health barriers, in particular, girls.

    Harmonizing nature and tech: exploring the fusion of mobile technology in outdoor adventure
    (Mendelova univerzita v Brně, 2024) Baisová, Karin; Marko, Michal; Adamčák, Štefan; Ľuptáková, Jana
    Mobile technology (tablets, smartphones) may provide students with access to educational resources (maps, navigation tools), enriching the outdoor adventure experience and facilitating the learning; therefore, the present study was aimed at exploring the fusion of mobile technology in outdoor adventure (in students). Instrument of survey (3 questions) was carried out 2 months (Jan. - Feb., 2024), through the sampling (purposive) of 1 624 (100%) students: (i) Male (846, 52.10 %); (ii) Female (778, 47.90%). Descriptive (percentage - %, arithmetic mean - x̄ ) and inferential (chi-square test - x2) statistics was used to evaluate the data. 62. 80% (1020) of students use mobile technology in outdoor adventure; in contrast to 30.48% (495) (not using) (p ˃ .05). 36.82% (598) of students use additional devices of mobile technology (mobile apps) in outdoor adventure (p ˂ .01). 8.78 % (142) of students (only) are aware of apps, aimed at discovering the natural attractions (p ˃ .05). Exploring the fusion of mobile technology (apps) in outdoor adventure is students may promote the learning (experiential), engagement and environmental awareness, making it an important aspect of educational and/or outdoor recreation programs.

    University students' perspectives on physical activity in natural environments
    (Mendelova univerzita v Brně : Brno, 2025) Baisová, Karin; Adamčák, Štefan; Marko, Michal; Luptáková, Jana
    Physical activity in natural environments, often referred to as “green exercise” is linked to numerous benefits (e.g., physical, psychological) including reduction of stress, improved mood, and enhanced motivation for regular exercise (“green”, in our case). University students, who face increased risks of physical inactivity because of academic demands and lifestyle changes, have unique perspectives on participating in physical activity in natural environments; therefore, it (study) aims at exploring university students' perspectives on physical activity in natural environments; in particular, motivations and barriers. Instrument of survey (4Qs) was carried out 2 months (Jan. 1 – Feb. 28, 2025), as means of exploring 1,121 university students' (45.94% of boys, 54.06% of girls) perspectives on physical activity in natural environments. 35.33% (396) of students participated in green exercise 1x/ week (p ˂ 0.01), in general, for 1-3 hours/ week (51.57%; 580) (p ˂ 0.01). 43.69% (225) of male students participated in green exercise because of improving health (p ˂ 0.01), and 56.60% (343) of female students participated in green exercise because of relaxation and stress relief (p ˂ 0.01). “Lack of time” to participate in green exercise reported 67.81% (760) of students (p ˂ 0.01). It (study) highlights the need for strategy (targeted) to promote green exercise in university students by addressing the time constraints and emphasizing gender-specific motivators.
