Attitude of students of creative specialties and directions of preparation to physical education and sport
Permanent monitoring of the need-motivational sphere in the field of physical culture and sports activity of student youth of various specialties and areas of training is of no small importance in the formation of cognitive-axiological components of the professional physical culture of the individual. The aim of the research is to study the attitude of students of creative specialties and directions of preparation for physical culture and sports activity in terms of the unconscious component of the personality of future specialists. Methodology and organization of the research: the research was carried out based on GSU at the Department of Physical Culture and Life Safety, in which 61 students participated. The study used the method of "Semantic differential" and semantic statistical processing of student essays in conjunction with the descriptive methods of mathematical statistics. Results of the research and discussion: as a result of the study, it was revealed that students of creative specialties and areas of training have a low level of theoretical literacy in the field of physical culture and sports activity, negative previous motor experience and pronounced redistribution of the need-motivational sphere of their personality into the area of professional interests, which formed among them the nihilistic attitude towards its further application in social and professional activities. Conclusions: to improve the identified low level of theoretical training, it is necessary to strengthen the work of the teaching staff of the Department of Physical Culture and Life Safety of GSU in this direction. In addition, it is necessary to consider the nihilistic attitude of students in conducting practical classes for the formation of students' positive attitude to physical culture and sports, as the basis for their further performance throughout their life.
