40 Section APPLIED ANTHROPOLOGY THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BODY COMPOSITION AND NEIGHBORHOOD WALKABILITY IN OBESE AND OVERWEIGHT WOMEN Přidalovб Miroslavб, Sofkovб Tereza Department of Natural Sciences in Kinanthropology, Faculty of Physical Culture, Palackэ University Olomouc, Czech Republic A neighborhood environment allows defi ning typical features for physically active or inactive lifestyle. <...> An accelerated pace of life and higher availability of an unhealthy lifestyle increase obesity rates. <...> An analysis of body composition can be used as a predictor for assessment of current somatic conditions. <...> The aim of the study was to determine the dependence of selected body composition parameters on neighborhood walkability in 167 women aged 20-60 years attending weight-loss program, so called STOB-courses. <...> A multifrequency bioimpedance analysis InBody 720 was used to determine body composition of respondents. <...> Further, ANEWS questionnaire was used to determine the level of neighborhood walkability. <...> We divided the sample into two age groups (<40 years; ≥ 40 years) and into partial subgroups according to the neighborhood “level of walkability” (lower and higher level). <...> Based on the assessment of body composition, it can be assumed that more walkable neighborhood opportunities positively affect body composition. <...> Body composition in older women is positively infl uenced if they lived in high walkable areas. <...> In younger women we found only one indicator of body composition (body fat mass) infl uenced by neighborhood walkability. <...> The relationship between health indicators of body composition and residential infrastructure might be useful in the strategies aimed at maintaining and developing a healthy lifestyle within the community. <...> Key words: questionnaire ANEWS, environmental conditions, bioimpedance analysis, InBody 720, weight-loss program Contact information: Přidalovб Miroslava, e-mail: miroslava.pridalova@upol.cz, Sofkovб Tereza, e-mail: tereza.sofkova@email.cz. <...> SENSATION SEEKING AND ANTHROPOMETRY OF SUCCESSFUL FEMALE WRESTLERS Prosikova Ekaterina, Butovskaya Marina, Veselovskaya Elizaveta Institute of Ethnology and Anthropology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia In this study a hypothesis was tested about increased level of masculinity in successful female wrestlers. <...> We were looking for signifi cant behavioral and morphological differences between female wrestlers of high achievements compared to the control <...>
