| Popis | According to the latest demographic data, contemporary population is facing progressive process of ageing. Recently conducted studies have shown that intergenerational relation and common activities among seniors and their children or grandchildren present a significant factor in both physical and mental fitness of the seniors (World Health Organisation [WHO], 2011; Hoff, 2007; Uhlenberg and Hammill, 1998). This paper presents preliminary results of a qualitative study, conducted within the international Czech-Austrian AKTION project, delivered at the Faculty of Sports Studies, Masaryk University (Febr.2015 – June2016), which deals with the intergenerational context between grandparents and grandchildren, especially in the area of physical activities. The goal of the study is to study the mutual influence between the senior and grandchildren generation in the area of daily physical activity and routine as well as the geographical, political and other factors in the two included countries. For the purpose of the study with seniors we use a semi-structured interview conducted with total amount of 50 Czech and Austrian seniors – grandparents (n = 50), in order to monitor their childhood memories of common activities with their grandparents as well as their contemporary situation of performing common activities with their own grandchildren. The semi-structured interviews have been progressed by general data analysis firstly (such as age, sex, nationality, number of children and grandchildren and possible occurrence of a child/ grandchild with disability). The second part of the analysis consists of qualitative data progression by means of interview transcript analysis and matching particular key words to significant domains. For the purpose of the study with the grandchildren qualitative projective method of an essay will be used. Final results of both age groups will be compared in both countries subsequently. |
