Sažetak
Introduction: This study examined the knowledge of and attitudes towards proprioception and proprioception exercises/training among football and handball players, in terms of knowledge sufficiency and attitudes consistency, as well as determination of differences between groups. Methods: An internally created questionnaire based on the Likert scale was used in this cross-sectional study (football players N=20, handball players N=25). Eight claims were related to knowledge, and five to attitudes. The Mann-Whitney U test for nonparametric, unpaired data was used for data analysis. Results: There are no statistically significant differences between groups regarding knowledge (p>0.05), except in knowledge about prevention (p=0, 021). There are no statistically significant differences between groups in attitudes (p>0, 05). Insufficient knowledge was recorded in both groups (the median value ranged from 3-5, in both group). The need for education in terms of better understanding of proprioception exercise and the physiotherapist’s role was recorded in both groups (median 5). Discussion and conclusion: There is a lack of knowledge about the importance and the role of proprioceptive training, but the players are aware of it and want to educate themselves further in this matter.
