Sažetak
The main purpose of this study was to determine the similarities and the differences regarding sports preferences among people of different chronological age and gender. 705 adult persons aged 20 to 65 were questioned in the study. The canonical discriminant analysis revealed three significant discriminant functions (p<0, 00). The first function can be identified as the function of gender stereotypes, the second as the function of social values and the third as the function of a smaller or greater risk of injury. It can be concluded that there are differences regarding interests toward different kinds of sports according to gender and age in this population, but also that social values of a person may play an important role in what kind of sports a person will choose.
