HESSOVÁ, Jana
The bachelor thesis addresses the importance of leisure time for the quality of life of people with visual impairment. Leisure time has the same importance for the target group as it has for the majority. It brings relaxation, physical and mental relief and stress reduction. Leisure time also plays an important role in casual and informal integration. Sports activities constitute an ideal tool for involvement and integration of individuals with visual impairment into the society. These activities have a considerable benefit in the prevention of secondary impacts in individuals with visual impairment. The theoretical part consists of three main chapters. The first section defines the term ?quality of life.? The second section of the theoretical part addresses the term ?visual impairment.? The final section of the theoretical part defines the term ?leisure time?. The practical part of the bachelor thesis contains research objectives and research questions. The data were collected in a qualitative procedure, using the technique of a structured interview with open-ended questions. The research set consisted of four respondents with visual impairment from the region of České Budějovice. The objective of the bachelor thesis is to perform a qualitative research to introduce sports activities as a possible tool of prevention of secondary impacts of visual impairment. The above stated objective has two sub-objectives. A qualitative procedure was selected for achieving the objectives of the practical part of the bachelor thesis. The research took place through structured interviews with open-ended questions. The data collected from the respondents helped me to answer the below stated research questions. Research question No. 1: What is the importance of sports activities from the view of an individual with visual impairment? It is possible to state that the main benefit of sports activities for all the respondents is the improvement of both mental and physical condition, wellbeing and stress relief. These activities have a positive effect in the area of relieving the tension and having fun, and contribute to the feeling of living the day to the fullest. Research question No. 2: What sports activities do the respondents with visual impairment perform? The qualitative research has clearly shown that the sports activity most commonly performed by the respondents is swimming, followed by hiking and riding a tandem bike. Research question No. 3: Why do the respondents with visual impairment not perform sports activities in their leisure time? Ascertain the reasons. The qualitative analysis of the collected data has shown that the obstacles for performing sports activities in leisure time have an external nature. The reasons are either organizational problems or absence of assistance or guiding services. It has followed from the conclusions derived in relation to the first sub-objective that according to the analyzed individuals, the most common obstacle for performing sports activities is a limited availability of assistance. Another obstacle for performing the activities is their costs and problems with accessibility by transport. The outputs obtained in relation to the second sub-objective have proven that a very beneficial and preferred activity of the research set is swimming. Other sports activities conducted by them are hiking and riding a tandem bike. The analysis has shown that these activities have a positive effect particularly on the locomotor system. All these activities have a great benefit for the prevention of secondary impacts in individuals with visual impairment. The bachelor thesis may be used as a study material for the students of related branches due to the narrow specialization of the thesis in the branch of special education of people with visual impairment.
