Abstract

ABSTRACT This study analyzed the factorial structure of motor competence tests designed to evaluate motor development among adolescents, focusing on the two main dimensions of coordination and motor control. To this end, we randomly sampled 1,026 adolescents (45.3% males; 45.7% females, age 13.75 years, SD = 1.28). Participants completed the Multidimensional Sportcomp Motor Battery, which features ten motor competence tests. Results indicate that two factors grouped seven of the ten sub-tests related to upper body strength and skill related-fitness. The factorial structure remained stable across age and sex groups, with the exception of manual grip (grip strength) and 7 Meters with Feet Together (jumping) which may relate to a sex-specific evolutionary pattern for upper body force. The Flexibility, Equilibrium and Lateral Jumps tests were not grouped by this factor analysis on any established dimension. These results underscore the multidimensionality of physical factors that influence motor competence among adolescents.

影响青少年运动能力的生理因素的多模态分析

摘要本研究分析了青少年运动能力测试的析因结构，重点分析了协调和运动控制两个主要维度。为此，我们随机抽取了1026名青少年(45.3%男性;45.7%女性，年龄13.75岁，SD = 1.28)。参与者完成了多维运动电池测试，其中包括十项运动能力测试。结果表明，两个因素将与上身力量和技能相关的十个子测试中的七个分组。除手握(握力)和双脚并拢7米(跳跃)外，各年龄和性别群体的因子结构保持稳定，这可能与上肢力量的性别特异性进化模式有关。柔韧性，平衡和横向跳跃测试没有被这个因素分析分组在任何既定的维度。这些结果强调了影响青少年运动能力的物理因素的多维性。

期刊介绍： The scope of Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science (MPEES) covers original measurement research, special issues, and tutorials within six substantive disciplines of physical education and exercise science. Six of the seven sections of MPEES define the substantive disciplines within the purview of the original research to be published in the journal: Exercise Science, Physical Activity, Physical Education Pedagogy, Psychology, Research Methodology and Statistics, and Sport Management and Administration. The seventh section of MPEES, Tutorial and Teacher’s Toolbox, serves to provide an outlet for review and/or didactic manuscripts to be published in the journal. Special issues provide an avenue for a coherent set of manuscripts (e.g., four to five) to collectively focus in-depth on an important and timely measurement-related issue within the scope of MPEES. The primary aim of MPEES is to publish high-impact manuscripts, most of which will focus on original research, that fit within the scope of the journal.
