Female students, Intrinsic motivation Inventory

Sažetak
The aim of this research was to establish exercise attitude differences in female students of Economy Faculty at University of Zagreb. The research study included sample of 332 first and second year female college students who, within mandatory PE course, chose different exercise programs: volleball, basketball or aerobics. The intrinsic motivation inventory (McAuley et al., 1989) with 18 items in which all of the items employed were scored on a five-degree type of Likert scale was used to estimate exercise attitudes. The differences between participants' samples were tested by discriminant analysis. The obtained results showed how, in the intrinsic motivation inventory, one discriminant function successfully differed analyzed students' groups according to chosen exercise program. However, none of the variables was found to be particularly contributing to the differences between groups. Some variables slightly contributed to students' exercise efforts and, at the same time, to the indiference towards exercise success. Volleyball and basketball engaged students seemed to show less effort and an opinion of not being successful at exercising, in contrast to students who chose aerobics program. It can be concluded how in PE classes at Economy Faculty at University of Zagreb more incentive should be placed on exercising and perfecting volleyball and basketball elements and skills, along with introducing the collegiate competitions. It should also be noted that students are foremost oriented at their personal contribution, skills amelioration and group unity, that is, on intrinsic motivation.
