Abstract: 

Quality of life assessment is a valuable modern method for diagnosing deviations in various types of individual functioning. The aim of the study is to assess the quality of adolescents’ life taking into account their level of physical fitness. The quality of life was analyzed among adolescents aged 15–17 in a comprehensive school (n = 139), a separate analysis was conducted among schoolchildren systematically engaged in physical activity, including sports sections (n = 61). The adapted PEDsQL 4.0 questionnaire (Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory version 4.0) was used, statistical data processing was carried out using nonparametric statistics methods. The highest rates were noted in adolescents’ selfassessment of social functioning, reflecting children’s sociability. A comparative analysis of children’s and parents’ versions of the questionnaire indicated statistically significant differences in characteristics of physical functioning (running, walking, child’s mobility), “Life at school” (role functioning in a team and adaptation to academic workloads) with lower scores in the parents’ questionnaires; and characteristics of emotional functioning, in which adolescents indicated more significant experiences (feelings of fear, sadness, anxiety, bad mood) than in the view of their parents. Gender characteristics of quality of adolescents’ life were established with lower indicators in characteristics of physical and emotional functioning among girls. The comparison of parameters of life quality among adolescent athletes and non-athletes, along with an obviously higher level of physical fitness, indicated a high emotional stability of athletes, but outlined problems of adaptation to academic workload in a comprehensive education institution. The use of quality of life analysis in pedagogical practice allows us to identify unfavorable trends in physical, emotional and social aspects of students’ lives for individual work, including in physical education system.
