Stališča in vedenje osnovnošolskih učiteljev na področju zdravega življenjskega sloga

Lovšin, Kaja (author), Kostanjevec, Stojan (mentor)

Vsak posameznik ima svoj značilni način življenja, ki ga imenujemo življenjski slog. Življenjski slog zajema skupino izrazitih vedenj, ki se pojavljajo konsistentno v določenem časovnem obdobju. Življenjski slog posameznika lahko vključuje tako zdravju škodljiva kot zdravju naklonjena vedenja, zato pomembno vpliva na zdravje in kakovost življenja. Namen magistrskega dela je bilo ugotoviti, kako zdrav je življenjski slog učiteljev in kakšna so stališča učiteljev do zdravega življenjskega sloga. Podatke smo pridobili z anketiranjem učiteljev s pomočjo spletnega vprašalnika. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 217 osnovnošolskih učiteljev, od tega je bilo 87 učiteljev, ki niso poučevali vsebin zdravega življenjskega sloga, in 130 učiteljev, ki so poučevali vsebine zdravega življenjskega sloga. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da učitelji večinoma ne dosegajo meril zdravega življenjskega sloga. Ugotovili smo, da učitelji ne uživajo dovolj redno priporočenih dnevnih obrokov, uživajo premalo sadja in zelenjave ter priporočenih živil (npr. ribe in mleko ter mlečne izdelke). Učitelji zelo redko uživajo odsvetovana živila in pijače. Zaznali smo, da so učitelji premalo telesno aktivni, pogosto doživljajo stres in veliko časa namenijo uporabi elektronskih naprav. Učitelji se zavedajo, da nekatera njihova vedenja, povezana z zdravjem, niso ustrezna in da morajo spremeniti določene navade njihovega življenjskega sloga. Zavedajo se tudi vpliva dejavnikov življenjskega sloga (npr. prehrana) na zdravje. Zaznali smo, da učitelji, ki poučujejo vsebine zdravega življenjskega sloga, pripisujejo dejavnikom zdravega življenjskega sloga večji vpliv na zdravje kot učitelji, ki teh vsebin ne poučujejo. Rezultati raziskave kažejo na to, da učitelji, ki poučujejo vsebine zdravega življenjskega sloga, živijo bolj zdravo, saj v večji meri dosegajo priporočila zdravega življenjskega sloga. Glede na ugotovitve raziskave je treba učitelje spodbujati k zdravemu življenjskemu slogu in že v času študija vključevati vsebine zdravega življenjskega sloga v študijske programe, ki so namenjeni izobraževanju učiteljev. Učitelji z ustreznim znanjem prispevajo k oblikovanju zdravega življenjskega sloga učencev, ki ga spodbujajo tudi z lastnim zgledom.

• Title: Attitudes and behaviours of primary school teachers in relation to a healthy lifestyle

Abstract

Each person has a distinctive way of living or what we call a lifestyle. A lifestyle encompasses a group of distinct behaviours that occur consistently over a period of time. A person's lifestyle can include both health-promoting and health-damaging behaviours. It, therefore, has a significant impact on health and quality of life. This master thesis aimed to determine how healthy teachers' lifestyles were and their attitudes towards healthy lifestyles. The data was obtained using an online questionnaire. The survey included 217 primary school teachers, 87 of whom did not teach healthy lifestyle topics and 130 who did. The survey results showed that the majority of teachers did not meet healthy lifestyle criteria. We found that teachers did not follow the recommended amount of daily meals and did not consume enough fruits and vegetables and recommended foods such as fish and dairy products. Teachers very rarely consumed discouraged foods and beverages. We observed that teachers were not physically active enough, experienced stress often, and spent a lot of time on electronic devices. Teachers were aware that some of their health-related behaviours were inappropriate and that they needed to make lifestyle changes. They were also aware of the impact of lifestyle factors (e.g., a healthy diet) on health. We observed that teachers who taught healthy lifestyle topics attributed a much more significant impact on health to healthy lifestyle factors than teachers who did not. The results suggest that teachers who taught healthy lifestyle topics lived healthier lives and met healthy lifestyle recommendations to a much greater extent. According to the findings of the study, teachers should be encouraged to adopt healthy lifestyles, and healthy lifestyle topics should be included in teacher education programmes. Teachers with the required knowledge can contribute to and promote the development of healthy lifestyles in their students by their example.
