Abstract

The objective of the research is to study the attitudes towards Karate correlated with the world of values of the apprentices. A diagnostic survey is the main method of the study: a direct extended questionnaire from Cynarski (2006), as an auxiliary questionnaire A and a survey questionnaire "Perception of martial arts by young practitioners. Motives and effects of training, values of martial arts versus other values "with Rokeach's scale of values (Rokeach, 1973). The research material is based on statements of respondents obtained from the national team of the Polish Traditional Karate Association. N = 16 (18 to 20 years old). Respondents associate karate practice and observing the spirit of martial arts with their own philosophy of life. They also see the positive and multifaceted impact of karate on his personality. On the instrumental value scale, "forgiveness" is rated higher by those who do not recognize the habit of continuous goal pursuit as the most important value in their lives. In turn, "family security" is rated higher. The spirit of continuous self-improvement is internalized by trainees who transfer the values and principles of martial arts into their lives. In the case of the karate contestants studied, the impact of the training room rules on their axiology and worldview was found to be in accordance with the stated hierarchy of values.
