Published: February 2021

Background

University teaching methods are changing, and in response to a classical teacher-centered approach, new methods continue to strengthen knowledge acquisition by involving students more actively in their learning, thus achieving greater motivation and commitment.

Objective

This study aimed to analyze the degree of satisfaction of physiotherapy students who used a board game–based approach, as well as to compare the difference between traditional and gamification teaching methods and their influence on the final evaluation of these students.

Methods

A comparative study was conducted. Participants were physiotherapy students who were enrolled in the subject of “physiotherapy in geriatric and adult psychomotricity” (n=59). They were divided into two groups (experimental [n=29] and control [n=30] groups) through convenience sampling. The experimental group received gamification lessons, where the students performed different tests adapted from Party&Co, and the control group received traditional lessons. A total of 16 theoretical lessons were received in both groups.

Results

The scores in the final examination of the subject were higher in the experimental group (mean 7.53, SD 0.95) than in the control group (mean 6.24, SD 1.34), showing a statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=.001).

Conclusions

Overall, the “Physiotherapy Party” game not only stimulated learning and motivated students, but also improved learning outcomes among participants, and the improvements were greater than those among students who received traditional teaching.

Authors: Jaworski Beth K , Taylor Katherine , Ramsey Kelly M , Heinz Adrienne , Steinmetz Sarah , Pagano Ian , Moraja Giovanni , Owen Jason E
Published: February 2021

Background

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted mental health and well-being. Mobile mental health apps can be scalable and useful tools in large-scale disaster responses and are particularly promising for reaching vulnerable populations. COVID Coach is a free, evidence-informed mobile app designed specifically to provide tools and resources for addressing COVID-19–related stress.

Objective

The purpose of this study was to characterize the overall usage of COVID Coach, explore retention and return usage, and assess whether the app was reaching individuals who may benefit from mental health resources.

Methods

Anonymous usage data collected from COVID Coach between May 1, 2020, through October 31, 2020, were extracted and analyzed for this study. The sample included 49,287 unique user codes and 3,368,931 in-app events.

Results

Usage of interactive tools for coping and stress management comprised the majority of key app events (n=325,691, 70.4%), and the majority of app users tried a tool for managing stress (n=28,009, 58.8%). COVID Coach was utilized for ≤3 days by 80.9% (n=34,611) of the sample whose first day of app use occurred within the 6-month observation window. Usage of the key content in COVID Coach predicted returning to the app for a second day. Among those who tried at least one coping tool on their first day of app use, 57.2% (n=11,444) returned for a second visit; whereas only 46.3% (n=10,546) of those who did not try a tool returned (P<.001). Symptoms of anxiety, depression, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were prevalent among app users. For example, among app users who completed an anxiety assessment on their first day of app use (n=4870, 11.4% of users), 55.1% (n=2680) reported levels of anxiety that were moderate to severe, and 29.9% (n=1455) of scores fell into the severe symptom range. On average, those with moderate levels of depression on their first day of app use returned to the app for a greater number of days (mean 3.72 days) than those with minimal symptoms (mean 3.08 days; t1=3.01, P=.003). Individuals with significant PTSD symptoms on their first day of app use utilized the app for a significantly greater number of days (mean 3.79 days) than those with fewer symptoms (mean 3.13 days; t1=2.29, P=.02).

Conclusions

As the mental health impacts of the pandemic continue to be widespread and increasing, digital health resources, such as apps like COVID Coach, are a scalable way to provide evidence-informed tools and resources. Future research is needed to better understand for whom and under what conditions the app is most helpful and how to increase and sustain engagement.

Authors: Liang Jun , Li Ying , Zhang Zhongan , Shen Dongxia , Xu Jie , Zheng Xu , Wang Tong , Tang Buzhou , Lei Jianbo , Zhang Jiajie
Published: February 2021

BACKGROUND

The adoption rate of electronic health records (EHRs) in hospitals has become a main index to measure digitalization in medicine in each country.

OBJECTIVE

This study summarizes and shares the experiences with EHR adoption in China and in the United States.

METHODS

Using the 2007-2018 annual hospital survey data from the Chinese Health Information Management Association (CHIMA) and the 2008-2017 United States American Hospital Association Information Technology Supplement survey data, we compared the trends in EHR adoption rates in China and the United States. We then used the Bass model to fit these data and to analyze the modes of diffusion of EHRs in these 2 countries. Finally, using the 2007, 2010, and 2014 CHIMA and Healthcare Information and Management Systems Services survey data, we analyzed the major challenges faced by hospitals in China and the United States in developing health information technology.

RESULTS

From 2007 to 2018, the average adoption rates of the sampled hospitals in China increased from 18.6% to 85.3%, compared to the increase from 9.4% to 96% in US hospitals from 2008 to 2017. The annual average adoption rates in Chinese and US hospitals were 6.1% and 9.6%, respectively. However, the annual average number of hospitals adopting EHRs was 1500 in China and 534 in the US, indicating that the former might require more effort. Both countries faced similar major challenges for hospital digitalization.

CONCLUSIONS

The adoption rates of hospital EHRs in China and the United States have both increased significantly in the past 10 years. The number of hospitals that adopted EHRs in China exceeded 16,000, which was 3.3 times that of the 4814 nonfederal US hospitals. This faster adoption outcome may have been a benefit of top-level design and government-led policies, particularly the inclusion of EHR adoption as an important indicator for performance evaluation and the appointment of public hospitals.
Evaluation of Therapeutic Stepping Exergame (TSE)- a tailored Exergame for Fear of Falling and Balance Confidence for Elderly in India (Preprint)
Authors: Yein Nilakshi , Pal Swati
Published: February 2021

BACKGROUND

Fall is a critical problem that leads to various issues in the elderly. The fear of falling (FOF) is a common problem in the elderly population. There is an association between FOF and balance confidence. Exergaming (EXG) is a promising technology for the elderly to address these issues. Existing EXG needs an advanced infrastructure to install a camera or other devices. In a developing country like India, many areas cannot afford such arrangements. Moreover, the use of exergame itself is relatively new among the elderly in India.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to determine the effect of exergame (EXG) technology on FOF and the balance confidence in the Indian elderly. A tailored (Indian context) EXG termed Therapeutic Stepping Exergame (TSE) is used in the study. The paper also shows the relationship between FOF and balance confidence after the use of TSE.

METHODS

The TSE- a session is 30 minutes per day and seven days a week for four weeks. TSE has incorporated four stepping exercises. Twenty-seven Indian elderly (able to stand and walk independently, ten female and seventeen males; age: 66.44 ± 5.84 years) played four different stepping games in a tailored- EXG for four weeks, thirty minutes per day. For data analysis, SPSS version 20 is used.

RESULTS

Statistical results conﬁrmed TSE directly affects elderly balance confidence and further supported that it reduces the FOF. Results show significant improvement in the balance confidence at t(26)= 11.735, p=.00, less than .05; and a significant decrease in the FOF at t(26)= -18.528, p=.00, less than .05. There is a significant negative correlation between the FOF and balance confidence at r (26)= -.682, p=.00, less than 0.01.

CONCLUSIONS

The paper contributes to the elderly- fall and EXG research by providing insight into the TSE’s effectiveness in terms of balance confidence and fear of falling. The analysis suggests that in the Indian context, EXG can be a promising tool for delivering fall preventive exercises and a novel way to motivate the elderly to so. TSE can play a positive influence on the elderly fall research. For future study, more exercises can be incorporated with more participants.

Published: February 2021

BACKGROUND

Cancer treatments can cause a variety of symptoms that impair quality of life and functioning but are frequently missed by clinicians. Smartphone and wearable sensors may capture behavioral and physiological changes indicative of symptom burden, enabling passive and remote real-time monitoring of fluctuating symptoms

OBJECTIVE

The aim of this study was to examine whether smartphone and Fitbit data could be used to estimate daily symptom burden before and after pancreatic surgery.

METHODS

A total of 44 patients scheduled for pancreatic surgery participated in this prospective longitudinal study and provided sufficient sensor and self-reported symptom data for analyses. Participants collected smartphone sensor and Fitbit data and completed daily symptom ratings starting at least two weeks before surgery, throughout their inpatient recovery, and for up to 60 days after postoperative discharge. Day-level behavioral features reflecting mobility and activity patterns, sleep, screen time, heart rate, and communication were extracted from raw smartphone and Fitbit data and used to classify the next day as high or low symptom burden, adjusted for each individual’s typical level of reported symptoms. In addition to the overall symptom burden, we examined pain, fatigue, and diarrhea specifically.

RESULTS

Models using light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) were able to correctly predict whether the next day would be a high symptom day with 73.5% accuracy, surpassing baseline models. The most important sensor features for discriminating high symptom days were related to physical activity bouts, sleep, heart rate, and location. LightGBM models predicting next-day diarrhea (79.0% accuracy), fatigue (75.8% accuracy), and pain (79.6% accuracy) performed similarly.

CONCLUSIONS

Results suggest that digital biomarkers may be useful in predicting patient-reported symptom burden before and after cancer surgery. Although model performance in this small sample may not be adequate for clinical implementation, findings support the feasibility of collecting mobile sensor data from older patients who are acutely ill as well as the potential clinical value of mobile sensing for passive monitoring of patients with cancer and suggest that data from devices that many patients already own and use may be useful in detecting worsening perioperative symptoms and triggering just-in-time symptom management interventions.

SETTING UP A PROBLEM OF AIR-BORNE SOUND IN-SULATION CALCULATION FOR DOUBLE LAYER MASSIVE ENCLOSURES ON THE BASE OF THE MODELS WITH THE CONCENTRATED PARAMETERS
Authors: Zakharov Arkadiy , Saltikov Ivan
Published: February 2021

The calculation methods on the base of the concentrated parameters models, which were formed in the XX century, allowed to get simple and theoretically consistent solutions for the problems of one-layered building partitions sound insulation finding. The sound insulation estimation for the double-layered massive building partitions also is of scientific and practical interest, as double layer partitions are the particular case of the single layer enclosure's application. The concept of concentrated parameters includes the concentrated and the reduced masses, as well as the concentrated elasticity. The criteria for the object application as a specified kind of the concentrated parameters in the acoustical problems is the presence or the absence of the oscillation movement in it. The three calculation models with the application of the concentrated (discreet) parameters that to define the sound insulation of the massive double layer enclosures are given. The equations for sound insulation computation for one layer partition are represented. They were derived on the base of momentum law and energy conservation formulas under the continuity of energy flow conditions at the interface of different media. The three main paths of sound propagation from the room with the air-borne noise to the isolated room are shown. The two frequency range are separated on the way of the direct sound propagation: at the first, the surface density of the one of two layers and the air elasticity in the inter-layer gap influence on isolation; at the second one, the predominant role belongs to the summarized insulation by the "Mass Action Law" of the two layers. The indirect way's insulation is taken in account through the additional sound insulation graph drawing. The compound insulation curve is defined by the ways, where the sound energy transmittance is maximal at the standard frequency spectrum. The method of sound insulation calculation for the double layer partitions on the base of the concentrated parameters model application is revealed. As an example, the calculation of a prefabricated double layer inter-flat wall in the panel building was performed.

Published: February 2021

Rural areas occupy the major part of the territory of Ukraine, but they are characterized by low levels of socio-economic development, limitations in the amount and quality of public services, negative demographic trends. The aim of the article is to systematize modern means of financing rural development in Ukraine and to identify problems of their application by local governments. The authors proposed to improve the mechanism for financing rural development by active use its budgetary, credit and investment instruments. The prevalence of budgetary funding, whose limitation constrained rural development, was proven. Modern approaches to financing rural development were stated based on broadening community involvement in local budgeting, as well as in attracting investment resources. It has been found out that government subventions are the most powerful support instrument for rural development in the spheres of infrastructure, education, health care etc. The possibilities of financing rural development through the development budgets under financial decentralization have been investigated. It was noted that the use of participatory budgeting and other forms of project finance most clearly demonstrated real democratic transformations in local finance in Ukraine. The proposals for the use of PPP agreements, crowdfunding, and international funds’ grant programs for financing rural development were provided.

Indonesia has many types of unique and rare landforms, one of which is sand dunes, which is located in Parangtritis. Sand dune has the main function as a conservation area, natural wall for the tsunami disaster, water catchment area, and habitat for sand dune flora and fauna. However, the existence of sand dunes is currently threatened with extinction due to the decrease in their area, which is caused by changes in land use. Every year, the land use in the Parangtritis sand dune changes. Therefore, it is important to map land use changes to determine the changes that occur in the sand dune core zone. This study aims to map land use change in the core zone of sand dunes using small format aerial images and the OBIA (Object-Based Image Analysis) method. Land use in the study area is classified into nine classes, namely sand dunes, dry land forest, shrubs, coastal shoals, open field, built-up area and settlements, dry land agricultural fields, roads, and fishponds. The results showed that there were changes in all land use classes. Based on the accuracy assessment, the overall accuracy for 2020 was 68.95%, while the classification results for 2015 were 61.81%.Keywords: land use changes, OBIA, Small Format Aerial PhotographyIndonesia memiliki banyak jenis bentuklahan yang unik dan langka, salah satunya adalah gumuk pasir yang terletak di wilayah Parangtritis, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta.

Kófið og leikskólinn: „Þetta var mögnuð „tilraun“ til að sjá gæðastarf verða til við skrítnar aðstæður“
Authors: Sigurðardóttir Ingibjörg Ósk , Mörk Svava Björg
Published: February 2021

Leikskólastarf getur verið eins ólíkt á milli leikskóla og þeir eru margir, enda stjórnast dagskipulag hvers leikskóla af áherslum og sýn þeirra er þar starfa. Sýn starfsfólks á nám og börn endurspeglar áherslur þeirra í starfi. Nýlegar rannsóknir benda á að það sé mikilvægt að hafa jafnvægi á milli athafna sem stýrt er af starfsfólki og athafna sem börnin stýra. Í þessu samhengi er einnig mikilvægt að taka tillit til þarfa og áhuga hvers barns þegar skipuleggja á leikskólastarfið. Jafnframt þarf að taka mið af réttindum barna og gefa þeim tækifæri til að hafa áhrif á nám sitt.Markmið rannsóknarinnar sem hér er sagt frá var að skoða áhrif takmarkana á leikskólastarf vegna fyrstu bylgju COVID-19 faraldursins, á leik barna og hlutverk leikskólakennara og annars starfsfólks. Jafnframt að skoða hvaða lærdóm mætti draga af reynslunni af takmörkununum. Gögnum var safnað með blönduðum aðferðum (e. mixed methods), annars vegar í gegnum einstaklingsviðtöl við leikskólastjóra og deildarstjóra, og hins vegar í gegnum spurningalista sem voru sendir út til 248 leikskóla um allt land.Niðurstöður benda til þess að takmarkanirnar hafi haft töluverð áhrif á leikskólastarf í landinu. Stjórnendur töldu að starfið hefði einkennst af meiri gæðum. Þeir töldu einnig að áhrif takmarkana hefðu skilað sér í aukinni vellíðan barna og fullorðinna. Takmarkanirnar urðu þó til þess að skerða þurfti aðgengi barnanna að leikefni. Þó að stjórnendur nefndu að ný vinatengsl hefðu myndast í barnahópnum þá kom einnig fram að einhver börn söknuðu vina sinna þegar takmörkun var á viðveru barnanna. Einhverjir starfsmenn upplifðu einnig einmanaleika þar sem samgangur á milli þeirra var takmarkaður. Rannsóknin er mikilvægt framlag til leikskólasamfélagsins og eykur skilning á þeim áhrifum sem takmarkanir á skólastarfi vegna fyrstu bylgju COVID-19 höfðu á leikskólastarf. Niðurstöðurnar benda til þess að mikilvægt sé að rýna í skipulag og starfshætti leikskóla landsins og huga að hvernig hægt sé að tryggja gæðastarf með leikskólabörnum.
TEORI OLIGARKI WINTERS ATAS PENAMBANGAN BATUBARA DI KALIMANTAN TIMUR (RELASI PENGUSAHA MENJADI PENGUASA)

Oligarchy portrait occurs in the process of coal mining in East Kalimantan. Many of the power-holding elites are involved in collaborating to become a mining resource chain in East Kalimantan. The Sexi Killer film by WatchDoc Documentary provides an illustration that explains how the elite was involved in becoming coal mining players in East Kalimantan. Coal mining does not necessarily bring prosperity to the surrounding community but instead brings about various environmental disasters. Several names of the ruling elite were dragged into the circle of mining business practices. Jefri A. Winters' oligarchic theory can explain why this portrait can occur. Democracy seems to have slipped in an oligarchy circle. The elite control material resources to increase wealth and maintain its social means.

Keywords: Elite, Oligarchy, Kalimantan Coal Mining.
POLITIK KEKERABATAN DAN PERWUJUDAN GOOD GOVERNANCE (STUDI KASUS: TABANAN)
Authors: Wijaya Komang Adi Sastra
Published: February 2021

Studi ini merupakan analisis neo-institusionalisme terhadap permasalahan politik dinasti dalam kaitannya dengan perwujudan good governance di Kabupaten Tabanan. Sebagaimana diketahui bahwa pasca reformasi, Tabanan dipimpin oleh satu kelompok keluarga yang sama. Dengan berfokus pada sektor pelayanan kesehatan, studi ini akan melihat seberapa jauh politik dinasti memberi dampak terhadap sektor kebijakan publik dan perwujudan good governance. Secara umum, kebijakan pelayanan kesehatan yang ditempuh oleh pemerintah Kabupaten Tabanan adalah kebijakan non-populis. Pemkab  Tabanan lebih memilih membangun rumah sakit berstandar internasional dibandingkan dengan menyediakan layanan kesehatan gratis bagi warga miskin. Selama ini studi mengenai politik dinasti dan pengaruhnya terhadap sektor kebijakan publik di Tabanan dilihat sebagai permasalahan politis semata tanpa melihat kepada persoalan deep state structure, yakni fungsi normatif dan budaya di dalamnya. Studi ini menemukan bahwa terdapat pertentangan antara sociological instution, historical institution dengan rational choice institution dibalik kukuhnya politik dinasti dan pergumulan dalam mewujudkan good governance di Kabupaten Tabanan. 

Kata kunci: Politik dinasti, good governance, neo-instutionalisme, kebijakan publik, Kabupaten Tabanan.
Trademarks: The retrospect, definitions, partial tools of research
Authors: ZHIL'TSOVA Yuliya V. , ZHIL'TSOVA Alina V. , PAVLOVA Ol'ga А.
Published: February 2021

Subject. Currently, the growing competition and the economic crisis make manufacturers and sellers actively use trademarks so as to win new business and retain customers. Over 80 percent of any buying decision depend on the visual information, rather than the reasonable approach. Legal issues of trademark use in business relations draw the attention of professional and scientific communities in Russia and abroad, dating back to far away times.
Objectives. We provide the rationale for a clearer definition of trademark for purposes of legal relations, examine the partial tools for studying verbal trademarks, and conduct an experiment to prove the efficiency of tachistoscopic tools for trademark studies as part of legal examinations.
Methods. The study is based on general and partial methods of research. Studying verbal trademarks, the use of tachistoscopic tools helped conduct an experiment and make conclusions, notwithstanding a small sample.
Results. Trademarks circulated in business affairs even in the A.C. times. In the second half of the 19th century, advanced economies set up the legislative framework on personalization means. All corresponding regulations are still being improved consistently. The systems approach and generalization helped sort out priority views on the concept trademark and coin a more specific term, which is important for scientific and practical activities of lawyers, managers and economists. Drawing upon the experiment, we made respective conclusions and suggest extrapolating them to similar studies as part of legal examinations.
Conclusions and Relevance. Trademark is a construct of law from professionals' perspectives and a symbol attracting people’s attention to goods as ordinary people perceive it. In mixed economies, consumers’ perception of goods significantly determines the producer’s market position. Therefore, many market actors need to specify the concept trademark, including legal departments of companies. Trademark disputes have become more frequent cases heard by the Russian arbitration courts. So, the specified definition and the experiment are of scientific and applied value. The findings are designated to improve the legislative framework for personalization means. The tools and findings we present in our experiment can serve not only for scientific, but also practical purposes of legal examinations concerning verbal trademarks. They will also work for teaching on legal disciplines.

Authors: KOZHEVINА Ol'ga V. , BELYAEVSKAYA-PLOTNIK Lyubov' A.
Published: February 2021

Subject. The article discusses export opportunities of the Russian regions, including green entrepreneurship, in terms of sustainable development goals.
Objectives. We conduct the aggregate evaluation of the export potential of the Russian regions by indicator of export opportunities, including the description of the development of green business segments.
Methods. Integral analysis is the baseline methodology accounting for multiple parameters of the local export potential and green business development.
Results. We determined the highest export potential of green entrepreneurship in regions by commodity group. To perform the comprehensive analysis of the export potential for business segments of the green economy, we propose and assess the aggregated index, which provide for factual indicators of exported products and requirements for green business development.
Conclusions and Relevance. If the export potential of the green economy is evaluated by simply examining exports of the above sectors, the findings will not be very informative, because they will not unveil business opportunities of the green segment. To comprehensively analyze the export potential for development business segments of the green economy, it is necessary to assess the aggregate index providing for factual indicators of exported products and requirements for the green business development.
Kierunki ewolucji systemu upadłościowego w Polsce
Authors: Tokarski Andrzej
Published: February 2021

Upadłość to jedna z najważniejszych instytucji gospodarki rynkowej. Poprawnie skonstruowana, normatywnie i prawidłowo wdrożona instytucjonalnie gwarantuje skuteczną ochronę wierzycieli oraz efektywną alokację środków produkcji. Polski ustawodawca zdecydował się na rozstrzyganie konfliktu interesów między dłużnikiem a jego wierzycielami na tle niewypłacalności w jednym po-stępowaniu sądowym. Zgodnie z art. 2 Ustawy z dnia 28 lutego 2003 roku. Prawo upadłościowe i  naprawcze postępowanie należy prowadzić tak, aby roszczenia wierzycieli mogły zostać zaspo-kojone w jak największym stopniu, a jeśli racjonalne względy na to pozwolą, by dotychczasowe przedsiębiorstwo dłużnika zostało zachowane. Przedmiotem artykułu jest ukazanie możliwego kierunku ewolucji polskiego systemu upadłości na podstawie analizy obowiązujących przepisów prawa oraz opublikowanych wyników badań na temat upadłości, przeprowadzonych przez pracowników naukowych Szkoły Głównej Handlowej pod kierunkiem E. Mączyńskiej oraz przez Polską Agencję Przedsiębiorczości. Podstawowe metody badawcze wykorzystane w pracy to: analiza danych zastanych oraz obowiązujących przepisów prawa dotyczących upadłości przedsiębiorstw w Polsce, analiza wyników badań na temat funkcjonowania systemu upadłościowego w Polsce oraz przegląd literatury przedmiotu. W artykule omówiono również historię rozwoju prawa upadłościowego w naszym kraju oraz wyszczególniono etapy przebiegu postępowania upadłościowego. W zakończeniu zaprezentowano wnioski dotyczące funkcjonowania polskiego modelu postępowania upadłościowego, w    którym dominuje restrykcyjny model instytucji upadłości, ukierunkowany przede wszystkim na ochronę wierzycieli wraz z propozycją stworzenia modelu pośredniego upadłości opracowanego przez S. Morawską.
Innowacyjne rozwiązania w dostosowywaniu przestrzeni miejskiej i rozwoju turystyki dla osób z niepełnosprawnością na przykładzie wybranych miast europejskich
Authors: Popiel Marcin
Published: February 2021

Około 80 mln osób w Europie ma jakiś stopień niepełnosprawności. Większość z nich mieszka naobszarach miejskich. Oczywiste jest, że ludzie ci mają takie same zdolności, aspiracje i motywacjedo podróżowania jak osoby zdrowe, jednak z drugiej strony niepełnosprawni napotykają na znaczniewięcej barier niż osoby pełnosprawne. Jest to szczególnie widoczne na obszarach miejskich. To sprawia,że pełny i równy udział niepełnosprawnych w turystyce i życiu codziennym staje się niemożliwy.Dlatego wiele miast europejskich – w obliczu wyzwania, jakim jest podniesienie poziomu dostępnościswoich ulic, zabytków, atrakcji turystycznych czy budynków – wprowadza liczne innowacyjnekoncepcje i rozwiązania, często wykorzystujące nowe technologie i metody projektowania. Miastadostrzegły potencjał, który tkwi w grupie niepełnosprawnych turystów, i zaczęły wprowadzać szeregusprawnień, gdyż dostosowywanie przestrzeni miejskiej do potrzeb niepełnosprawnych – zarównomieszkańców, jak i gości – niesie korzyści w długoterminowej stabilności. Niniejsza praca ma nacelu przedstawienie wiedzy na temat dostępności i adaptacji przestrzeni miejskiej, usług i produktóworaz omówienie zrównoważonego rozwoju turystyki osób niepełnosprawnych.
Aktywność fizyczna i turystyczna wśród uczestników Uniwersytetów Trzeciego Wieku na przykładzie Krakowa
Authors: Dubińska Anna
Published: February 2021

W artykule przedstawiono problematykę aktywności fizycznej i turystycznej wśród słuchaczy Uniwersytetów Trzeciego Wieku działających na terenie Krakowa. Celem pracy jest  zwrócenie uwagi na   konieczność poszerzenia oferty w zakresie aktywizacji ruchowej osób  starszych oraz wspierania działalności oferowanej przez wskazane jednostki. Do prezentacji zagadnienia wykorzystano część wyników badań zgromadzonych w ramach większego projektu badawczego. Dane uzyskano na podstawie kwestionariuszy ankietowych (m.in. IPAQ), wypełnianych na następujących krakowskich uczelniach: UTW przy Uniwersytecie Pedagogicznym im. KEN, UTW przy  Uniwersytecie Rolniczym im.   Hugona Kołłątaja, UTW przy  Uniwersytecie Jagiellońskim. W sumie analizie poddano 116  ankiet. Postępujący proces starzenia się  populacji rodzi konieczność podjęcia działań zmierzających zarówno ku   poprawie jakości życia poszczególnych jednostek, jak  i funkcjonowania państwa jako organizmu. Jedną z szans na utrzymanie zdrowia i sprawności fizycznej ludzi jest  stwarzanie im możliwości do   podejmowania aktywności fizycznej oraz   turystycznej. Wśród badanych wszyscy spełniali normę WHO dla   osób    starszych (500–1000 MET min/tydz.) w zakresie minimalnej aktywności ruchowej w czasie wolnym. Podczas wyjazdów krajowych seniorzy, jako  jeden z głównych sposobów spędzania czasu, wybierali aktywność ruchową. Wskazano pole  do działania dla  wszelkich  instytucji publicznych i niepublicznych zajmujących się   organizacją czasu dla  osób starszych, których problemem nie   jest   brak    chęci do   podejmowania różnych aktywności, lecz deficyt środków finansowych. Dzięki odpowiedniej współpracy w skali regionu i kraju należy wprowadzać programy wspierające aktywizację seniorów oraz  działalność UTW. Sprawna osoba starsza to  wyższy poziom samodzielności i samoobsługi, a w konsekwencji mniejsze koszty opieki zdrowotnej i socjalnej.
