Abstract

V pričujočem magistrskem delu smo preučili odnos med pogostostjo uporabe interneta in pogostostjo uporabe spletnih družbenih omrežij ter prekomerno telesno maso in pomanjkanjem telesne dejavnosti pri mladih v Sloveniji. V teoretičnem delu magistrskega dela smo se osredotočili na opredelitev osnovnih pojmov, kot so mladi, množični mediji, prekomerna telesna masa in prosti čas. S pomočjo statistik o uporabi interneta ter spletnih družbenih omrežij smo predstavili vlogo novih medijev v življenju mladih. Predstavili smo tudi enega od perečih težav današnje družbe, in sicer prekomerno telesno maso pri mladostnikih. Prikazali smo tudi pregled nekaterih dosedanjih raziskav o odnosu med pogostejšo rabo interneta in prekomerno telesno maso ter pomanjkanjem telesne dejavnosti ter med pogostejšo rabo spletnih družbenih omrežij in prekomerno telesno maso ter pomanjkanjem telesne dejavnosti. Zastavljene hipoteze smo oblikovali na podlagi znanstvene literature in jih v empiričnem delu, s pomočjo podatkov raziskave Mladine 2010, tudi analizirali. Rezultati so pokazali, da pogostost uporabe interneta ni statistično značilno povezana s prekomerno telesno maso niti s pomanjkanjem telesne dejavnosti. Prav tako pogostost uporabe spletnih družbenih omrežij ni statistično značilno povezana s prekomerno telesno maso ali zmanjšanjem pogostosti telesne dejavnosti. To nakazuje na kompleksnost povezave. Eden izmed razlogov za takšne rezultate je tudi ta, da mladi internet in spletna družbena omrežja uporabljajo z določenim namenom, lahko je to zabava ali klepet, zato niso toliko pozorni na oglase nezdrave hrane in pijače. Oglaševanje tako ne vpliva na višji indeks telesne mase. V zadnjem času se veliko pozornosti namenja tudi promociji zdravega življenja in povečanega gibanja v šolah, kar morda tudi vpliva na mlade v Sloveniji. Poraja se vprašanje, ali bi bili z novejšimi podatki o uporabi interneta in spletnih družbenih omrežij pri mladih v Sloveniji rezultati drugačni.

Secondary title: Internet use, social media use and obesity among young peaple in Slovenia
Secondary abstract: The aim of this master thesis was to examine the relation between internet usage frequency and social media usage frequency, and obesity and lack of physical activity among youth in Slovenia. The theoretical part focuses on the definition of basic concepts such as youth, mass media, obesity and leisure time. With statistical data of internet usage and social media we showed the role of new media in the life of youth. Furthermore, we examined one of the most problematic issues of today's society - obesity among young people. Master thesis presents several studies between often use of internet, obesity and lack of physical activity, as well as the relationship between social media usage frequency, obesity and lack of physical activity. Hypothesis are based on scientific literature are examined and analyzed in empirical part based on the data of Mladina 2010 research. Results show that, frequently usage of internet is not statistically distinctive related to obesity, neither to lack of physical activity. Moreover, frequently usage of social media is also not statistically related to obesity or reduction of physical activity frequency. This results show the complexity of relation. One of the reasons for those results is that the youth use internet and social media with a certain purpose, such as having fun or chatting, and are therefore paying less attention to unhealthy food and drinks commercials. Therefore, advertising is not raising the index of body weight. Besides, healthy life and the importance of increased physical activity in schools get more attention in advertising and everyday life, which perhaps influences youth in Slovenia. However, there is a rising question, whether there would be different results if we have possessed up to date data of internet usage and social media usage among youth in Slovenia.
