Because of the correlation between an individual’s health and physical activity, this study examines factors influencing the participation of rural residents in various recreational activities. Using survey data collected from rural residents of two areas of Lubelskie Voivodship, this paper fills the gap in research focused on rural residents. The response summary identifies the two most common forms of recreation among rural residents as walking and bicycling, recreation forms common in other European and non-European countries. To further identify personal characteristics and their relation to the frequency of recreational walking and biking, two equations were specified and estimated using latent dependent variable techniques. The results equation showed that females and farmers were more frequently walking than men or non-farming rural residents. In the case of recreational biking, married respondents, farmers, and residents of the northern area of Lubelskie were twice as likely to bike often or very often than the non-married, not employed in farming, and residents of the southern area. Results indicate that in addition to different demographic characteristics, location determines physical activity as reflected in recreational walking and biking, suggesting different approaches are needed to increase participation in either form of recreation among rural residents.
This article investigates factors influencing knowledge of renewable energy types among 200 residents of 13 villages in Lubelskie province using survey data collected in 2013. Survey summary responses indicate that solar and wind energy were best known and biofuels the least known among five energy types considered in the questionnaire. Factors associated with varying degrees of renewable energy sources were identified using the multivariate ordered probit approach. The largest change in probability that a respondent’s self-assessed knowledge level fell into a specific category was associated with being a farmer, viewing the subject matter of the survey as important, having high income, being from a large household and, being married.
The European Union and Poland aim to increase the role of renewbale energy sources and suppport it through programs encouraging the installation of solar colectors. This study presents preliminary results regarding knowledge about the renewable energy sources, subsidies for solar colectors and factors influencing such decision to install colectors among residents of five villages in Lubelskie Voivodship, the region with the most suitable natural conditions for solar energy utilization. Summary of responses from 93 respondetns shows that they have an average or good knowledge about solar energy, but the majority is not familiar with the solar colector subsidy program, while the lower energy costs, return on investment and colector prices are the most imnportant factors influencing the decision to purchase and install colectors. The preliminary nature of the study suggests that general inferences based on the observed tendencies ave to be treated with caution.
