An anonymous poll was conducted among a group of 133 first-year 103 male
(M) and 30 females (F) students of the Police and Criminal Justice Academy following
the end of the Special Physical Education I course and completion of pre-examination
tasks in the 2008/09 school year. The aim of this research was to find out the views of
female first-year students regarding the subject of Special Physical Education, which
belongs to the group of general-professional subjects.
The analysis of the poll results indicates that a large number of subjects holds
that the subject in question is very significant or that it is among subjects of
significance (72.93%; M-74.76%; F-66.67%), whereas the number of practical
training hours is insufficient, being average (67.67%; M-69.90; F-60.00), and that it
should be 4 lessons a week (41.35%; M-39.81%; F-46.67%) or 5 (30.08%; M-31.07%;
F-26.67%). The subjects also expressed an important view of the number of theory
lessons, which they found was satisfactory (65.41%; M-58.25%; F-90.00%) and that
lessons should take place during both semesters, i.e. throughout the school year
(87.97%; M-86.41%; F-93.33%). The students said that they preferred (87.22%; M-
87.38%; F-86.67%) the special part of the curriculum (hitting, levers, throws…) to the
theoretical part. As for the students’ views related to achievement expectations in the
observed subject, it can be inferred that 53.39%; M-49.52%; F-66.67% subjects
achieved results equaling or exceeding their expectations, whereas 43.61%; M-
46.60%; F-33.33% failed to achieve the desired results. A large number of subjects,
72 (54.14%); M 48 (46.60%); F 24 (80.00%) were of the opinion that the teachers and
assistants engaged on this subject were extremely correct or correct, whereas 23
(17.29%); M 19 (18.45%); F 4 (13.33%) subjects stated that they were incorrect or
that their conduct was disappointing. opinion poll, students, training, Special Physical EducationAbstract
