Sisällön kuvaus

This survey investigated the sporting activities of Finnish children and young people aged between 3 and 18: how much they exercise and in what sports they participate. Respondents' attitudes towards sports organisations in Finland were also charted. Parents answered on behalf of children under 12 years old, and young people aged 12-18 were interviewed in person.

Firstly, participation in sport both within and outside of sports organisations was surveyed. One question focused on how often children and young people exercised. The sports facilities mostly used were charted. A set of questions covered various aspects of sporting activities undertaken in a sports organisation or club (which organisation, type of sport, duration and frequency of the activity, number of years they had participated, etc.) Respondents were also asked how often they would prefer to exercise that sport. Same type of questions were asked about sporting and physical activities taken outside of sports organisations.

Respondents not involved in sports organisations were asked whether they would like to take part in organised sports in a sports organisation, and if so, what forms of sport they would undertake and how often. The attitudes of young people aged between 12 and 18 towards sports organisations in general were studied. One topic covered participation in sports competition. Parents or other caretakers of children aged between 3 and 11 were asked whether they had found sports organisations lacking in certain aspects, for example, should children have more free time, is the organisation too competition-oriented, should there be more variety in types of activity, and are children's and parents' wishes taken into account.

Background variables included respondents' age, gender, county and municipality of residence, and the number of children aged under 18 in the household. Parents/guardians of children aged between 3 and 11 were asked about the occupation of the household member with the highest income.

Otantamenetelmä

Probability: Multistage

Multistage stratified sampling. The data were collected in two stages, so that the 3-11-year-olds and the 12-18-year-olds formed two different samples. Respondents were randomly drawn from a national household telephone directory. To guarantee regional representativeness quotas based on place of residence and type of municipality were used. Only one interview was conducted in each household, even if there were more than one child of the appropriate age. Children under 12 years old were randomly selected. If there were several children aged between 3 and 11 in the household, then the parent/guardian answered on behalf of the child whose birthday was next after the interview date. The selection of young people (aged between 12 and 18) was based on quota sampling. Quotas were based on age and gender. The questionnaires were identical for both sample groups.
