THE PERSPECTIVE OF FREE TIME MOVEMENT IN PERSONS WITH MOTOR DISABILITY
THE PERSPECTIVE OF FREE TIME MOVEMENT IN PERSONS WITH MOTOR DISABILITY

Summary/Abstract: This research aimed at investigating the ways of spending leisure time in terms of gender and age, for people with motor disabilities (N - 93 subjects). It has been noticed that both men and women prefer to practice hobby activities at leisure, read, listen to music or collect stamps or watch television. Activities that do not appeal to both men and women are the same: to practice a hobby, such as walking, going for excursions, practicing a sport. For women there is added activity that does not please them: going out with friends with the city. For those with motor disabilities, younger ages (under 40) are associated with active leisure activities (going out in town with friends, going to recovery activities and practicing a hobby: walking, excursions, practicing a sport etc.), while older (over 40 years) are associated with passive activities (sleeping, watching TV, I have a hobby like: reading, listening to music, collecting stamps, etc.).
