摘要:Introduction.In the period from 1963 to 1998 regular PE classes were organized for all first year students at the universities in Serbia.At the University of Belgrade,non-swimmers attended compulsory swimming lesson,while the swimmers were given a choice of other activities such as skating,exercises accompanied with music,sports games,etc.The compulsory part of the course implied the weeks of preparation for cross country race and its realization and all students participated in it.We wanted to examine whether the students’ would be interested in attending PE classes as an optional course.Methods.A survey method was applied,i.e.,we made the transversal cross section of the students’ attitudes and interests.Basic research technique was the survey carried out by the means of a standardized cloze-type questionnaire.The research was performed in May and November 2010,on the sample of 2160 students from Belgrade,plus 300 students from Novi Sad and 300 students from Niš.The average students’ age in this study was 21.5.Results.Belgrade university students were mostly interested in swimming (51.33%),then in basketball (48,00%),mountaineering (40.00%),fitness (36.33%),volleyball (36%),etc.The students at the University of Novi Sad showed interest in almost the same sports and recreational activities.These students showed the greatest interest in swimming (44.21%),followed by volleyball (33.84%),basketball (27.04%),fitness (19.72%) etc.The students at the University of Niš also displayed the greatest interest in swimming (36.30%).About 42.5% of the respondents exercise at least once a week.It can be noticed that the frequency of doing physical exercises decreases with age.Over 56% of students exercise at least once a week,whereas this percentage reduces to 40% among the employed and among the retired it reduces to about 32%.On the basis of the obtained data it may be stated that a great number of students do not meet the minimum criterion of the weekly exercise frequency which should be at least three times a week.Conclusion.On the basis of the data obtained from the survey carried out on the sample of students at the universities of Belgrade,Novi Sad and Niš,we can conclude that the students at all three universities are largely interested in having organized regular PE classes at their universities.The survey confirmed that there is a variety of interests in particular sport-recreational activities among the students at different universities.
