Purpose. The aim of the study was to determine correlations between ways of spending free time and work-related and family-household duties among women taking part in physical recreation activities for many years. Basic procedures. The study included 1,104 women, aged 20 to 75, exercising in organized groups in cities of western Poland. The length of the respondents' physical activity history was defined by the number of years of doing exercise. The study used the diagnostic poll method and complementary survey techniques verified in a pilot study. The research results were analyzed qualitatively and statistically (χ2 test of independence, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Mann-Whitney U test, and multiple comparisons z-test). Main findings. The shortest length of physical activity (one year) was characteristic of women-mothers with children at the pre-school or school age, burdened with household chores and working jobs. At the same time, respondents with a shorter length of physical activity (under four years) spent more of their free time watching television both on weekdays and weekends. Conclusions. A comparison between the weekly volume of time of women's participation in physical exercise and the amount of time devoted to watching television proves that apart from the existence of objective barriers connected with the real work-related and family-household responsibilities, involvement in physical activity remains more of a question of the subjects' personal preferences and choices rather than having free time. Long-lasting physical activity is the decisive factor influencing the choice of active forms of spending free time.

The aim of the study was to assess the extent of depressive symptoms and anxiety and to assess the quality of life of mothers taking care of children with moderate to severe mental retardation in relation to the presence of children’s behavioural disorders and psychopathological symptoms. Material and method: Seventy-five mothers taking care of mentally retarded children were included in the study. The mean age of mothers was 42.95 (SD=8.47) and the mean age of children was 14.7 (SD=6.25). Fifty-two percent of children were irritable, 25% were aggressive, 7% had sexual disorders, 36% of children had depressive symptoms, 10% – anxiety, 10% – somatoform disorders, 13% – sleep disorders, 15% had eating disorders; psychotic symptoms/ odd behaviour were characteristic to 37% of children. Thirty-one percent of children were under control of a psychiatrist. The mental health condition of mothers was tested using Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Hopelessness Scale (HS), whereas the quality of life was tested by the Quality of Life Scale. Next, the test results were statistically analysed. Results: The study revealed a significant correlation between the mental health condition of the mother and behavioural and mental disorders of the child (depression, anxiety, somatoform disorders or psychotic symptoms/ odd behaviour). There was a correlation between the quality of life of the mother and child’s irritability (p=0.006), depressive symptoms (0.0476) and psychotic symptoms/odd behaviour (p=0.0006). Conclusion: There were apparent correlations between the quality of life and the mental health condition of mothers and some child’s behavioural disorders or psychopathological symptoms (irritability, depressive symptoms, psychotic symptoms/odd behaviour).

Celem badania była ocena nasilenia objawów depresyjnych, nasilenia lęku oraz ocena jakości życia matek opiekujących się dziećmi z diagnozą upośledzenia umysłowego w stopniu umiarkowanym i znacznym w zależności od występowania u dzieci zaburzeń zachowania i objawów psychopatologicznych. Materiał i metoda: Populację badaną stanowiło 75 matek opiekujących się dziećmi z rozpoznaniem upośledzenia umysłowego. Średni wiek badanych kobiet wynosił 42,95 roku (SD=8,47); średni wiek dzieci wynosił 14,7 roku (SD=6,25). Drażliwość występowała u 52% dzieci, zachowania agresywne – u 25% podopiecznych, a zaburzenia zachowań seksualnych – u ok. 7%. Objawy depresyjne miało 36% dzieci, lękowe – 10%, somatyzacyjne – 10%, zaburzenia snu – 13%, zaburzenia odżywiania – 15%, objawy psychotyczne/zachowania dziwaczne – 37% dzieci. Pod opieką psychiatry pozostawało 31% dzieci. Stan psychiczny matek oceniano za pomocą Inwentarza Depresji Becka (BDI), Inwentarza Stanu i Cechy Lęku Spielbergera (STAI) i Skali Poczucia Beznadziejności (HS), a jakość życia za pomocą Skali Jakości Życia. Otrzymane wyniki poddano analizie statystycznej. Wyniki: Wykazano istotne związki między stanem psychicznym matki a występowaniem u dziecka zaburzeń zachowania i niektórych zaburzeń psychicznych (depresyjnych, lękowych, somatyzacyjnych, psychotycznych/zachowań dziwacznych). Potwierdzono związek między jakością życia matki a występowaniem u dziecka drażliwości (p=0,006), objawów depresyjnych (0,0476) oraz objawów psychotycznych/zachowań dziwacznych (p=0,0006). Wnioski: Jakość życia i stan psychiczny badanych matek miały wyraźny związek z obecnością u podopiecznego niektórych zaburzeń zachowania i objawów psychopatologicznych (drażliwości, objawów depresyjnych, objawów psychotycznych/zachowań dziwacznych).
