Abstract

Osnovni cilj ovog istraživanja je utvrditi razliku u bazičnim antropometrijskim karakteristikama djece iz dječjeg vrtića „Šegrt Hlapić“ koji se nalazi u Sesvetama. Uzorak sudionika činilo je 12 djevojčica i 8 dječaka u dobi od 6 i 7 godina te 5 djevojčica i 9 dječaka u dobi od 3 i 4 godine. Kao uzorak varijabli činile su antropometrijske karakteristike djece: tjelesna visina i težina, a računanjem indeksa tjelesne mase (IBM) izračunati su određeni percentili pokazujući u koju skupinu djeca pripadaju, a skupine se dijele na pothranjenost, normalnu i prekomjernu tjelesnu težinu te pretilost. Iz prikupljenih podataka izračunata je deskriptivna statistika i t-test analiza kako bi se utvrdila statistički značajna razlika u bazičnim antropometrijskim karakteristikama između izmjerenih skupina djevojčica i dječaka. U radu su spomenuta i dosadašnja istraživanja o razlikama u antropometrijskim karakteristikama po spolu i dobi djece te na taj način želi se usporediti s provedenim istraživanjem u siječnju, u dječjem vrtiću „Šegrt Hlapić“. Rezultati pokazuju da postoji statistički značajna razlika u varijablama tjelesne visine i težine grupa djece po dobi i spolu. Koristeći t-test za nezavisne uzorke utvrđena je razlika u navedenim varijablama.

Abstract (english)

The main goal of this research is to determine the difference in the basic anthropometric characteristics of children from the kindergarten "Šegrt Hlapić" located in Sesvete. The sample of participants consisted of 12 girls and 8 boys aged 6 and 7 and 5 girls and 9 boys aged 3 and 4. A sample of variables were anthropometric characteristics of children: body height and weight, and by calculating the body mass index (BMI) certain percentiles showing which group children belong to, and groups are divided into malnutrition, normal and overweight and obesity. From the collected data, descriptive statistics and t-test analysis were calculated to determine a statistically significant difference in basic anthropometric characteristics between the measured groups of girls and boys. The study also mentions previous research on differences in anthropometric characteristics by sex and age of children, and in this way wants to compare it with the research conducted in January, in the kindergarten "Šegrt Hlapić". The results show that there is a statistically significant difference in the variables of body height and weight of groups of children by age and sex. Using t-test for independent samples, the difference in the mentioned variables was determined.
