本研究的目的是探讨儿童和青少年的基本运动技能（FMS）与身体成分的措施之间的关联。从4,363名儿童和青少年在年级4，6，8，10作为1997年新南威尔士州学校健身和体育活动调查的一部分收集的横截面数据进行了二次分析。通过观察评估六种FMS（跑、纵跳、投掷、接球、踢腿和击打）。直接测量身高、体重（用于计算体重指数; BMI）和腰围。结果表明，儿童和青少年的FMS执行能力与BMI和腰围显着相关。具体而言，BMI和腰围是8个人口统计学组中6个FMS的重要预测因素。调整后的比值比显示，超重的男孩和女孩在所有年级都不太可能拥有高水平的FMS，更有可能拥有低水平的FMS比那些谁不超重。男性FMS分为运动和物体控制技能，非超重的男孩和女孩在每个年级的两到三倍更有可能拥有更先进的运动技能比超重的男孩和女孩。然而，对于物体控制技能，唯一的人口统计学群体中，非超重学生拥有更多的高级技能比超重的学生在6年级和10年级的男孩。儿童和青少年运动技能的表现与体重状况之间似乎存在显著和重要的关联。这表明，预防儿童和青年不健康体重增加的干预策略可能会有用，包括提高运动技能的熟练程度作为一个关键组成部分。
The purpose of this study was to examine associations of fundamental movement skills (FMS) with measures of body composition among children and adolescents. Secondary analyses of cross-sectional data collected from 4,363 children and adolescents in Grades 4, 6, 8, and 10 as part of the 1997 New South Wales Schools Fitness and Physical Activity Survey were conducted. Six FMS (run, vertical jump, throw, catch, kick, and strike) were assessed by observation. Height and weight (used to calculate body mass index; BMI) and waist circumference were directly measured. Results indicated that the children's and adolescents' ability to perform FMS was significantly related to BMI and waist circumference. Specifically, BMI and waist circumference were, significant predictors for FMS in six of the eight demographic groups. Adjusted odds ratios revealed that overweight boys and girls in all grades were less likely to possess high levels of FMS and more likely to possess low levels of FMS than those who weren't overweight. Men FMS were partitioned into locomotor and object-control skills, nonoverweight boys and girls in each grade were two to three times more likely to possess more advanced locomotor skills than overweight boys and girls. However, for object-control skills, the only demographic groups in which nonoverweight students possessed a greater number of advanced skills than overweight students were boys in Grades 6 and 10. There appear to be significant and important associations between performance of locomotor skills and weight status among children and adolescents. This would suggest that intervention strategies to prevent unhealthy weight gain among children and youth might usefully include increasing proficiency of locomotor skills as a key component.
