Physical Fitness and Lifestyle Habits in Community Festival Participants

本研究では，市民フェスティバルに参加した子どもを対象に，運動習慣と生活習慣との関連について検討を行った。その結果，対象の運動能力は男児では全身反応時間，女児では肺活量で高値を示した。一方，垂直跳び・閉眼片足立ちは男女ともに低値を示した。またほとんどの者が毎朝朝食を摂取しており，週に1回以上運動をしている者の割合が多く認められた。運動能力と運動習慣との関係ついてみると，運動能力の高い者は運動頻度が高い割合を示すことが認められた。以上より，地域と学校が協力し子どもが運動に触れ合う機会を多く作ることにより，良好な運動習慣を身につけさせる可能性が示唆された。The purpose of this study was to determine relationship between exercise habits and lifestyle habits who took part in community festival in children.
