Abstract

Istraživanje je provedeno s ciljem da se utvrdi postoje li statistički značajne razlike u motoričkim sposobnostima između djece predškolske dobi koja se bave klizanjem i djece te dobi koja se ne bave sportom. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 12 djece u dobi od pet i pol do sedam godina koja treniraju umjetničko ili brzo klizanje i 15 djece iste dobi koja se ne bave sportom niti sudjeluju u nekom od sportskih programa u vrtiću ili izvan vrtića. Svaka od motoričkih sposobnosti mjerena je jednim testom. Repetitivna snaga mjerena je testom 8 čučnjeva, eksplozivna snaga testom skok u dalj s mjesta, ravnoteža testom stajanje jedna noga kocka, agilnost testom koraci u stranu, te gibljivost testom pretklon trupa na klupi. Način prikupljanja podataka bio je jednak za sve ispitanike. Podaci su obrađeni isključivo zbirno čime je osigurana najavljena anonimnost sudionika istraživanja. U obradi podataka korištena je deskriptivna analiza i t-test kao metoda pomoću koje su testirane hipoteze. Dobiveni rezultati pokazali su statistički značajne razlike između ispitanika klizača i nesportaša u rezultatima svih provedenih pet testova tako da klizači pokazuju statistički značajno više razine svih promatranih motoričkih sposobnosti. Ovaj zaključak treba promatrati u kontekstu ograničenja ovoga istraživanja, a koja se odnose na broj ispitanika, zatim na izostanak normalne distribucije ispitanika s obzirom na njihov spol, nedostatak podataka o njihovim morfološkim karakteristikama te na prilagodbu u izvedbi pojedinih testova situaciji pandemije. Buduća istraživanja bi trebala adresirati ta ograničenja. Praktične implikacije istraživanja sastoje se u nužnosti stvaranja dostupnosti rekreativnog klizanja djeci predškolske dobi u svrhu njihovog kvalitetnijeg motoričkog razvoja.

Abstract (english)

The research was conducted with the aim of determining whether there are statistically significant differences in motor abilities between pre-school children who ice skate and children of the same age who do not play sports. The research was conducted on a sample of 12 children aged from 5 and a half to 7 who train figure or speed skating and on a sample of 15 children of the same age who do not play sports or participate in sport programmes within the kindergarten or outside. Each of the motor skills was measured by one test. Repetitive strength was measured by the 8-squat test, explosive strength by the standing long jump test, balance by the standing with one foot on the cube test, agility by the side step test and flexibility by the forward inclination of the trunk on the bench test. The data collection method was the same for all respondents. The data were processed only collectively, which ensured the announced anonymity of the participants in the research. In the data processing used were the descriptive analysis and the t-test as the method for testing the hypotheses. The obtained results have shown statistically significant differences between the respondents who ice skate and the respondents who do not play sports in the results of all 5 tests conducted. This conclusion has to be viewed in the context of the limitations of this research that refer to the number of respondents, the lack of normal distribution of respondents in terms of gender, the lack of data on their morphological features and the adjustment of certain tests to the situation caused by the pandemic. Those limitations should be addressed by future research. The practical implications of the research include the necessity to make recreational ice skating available to pre-school children in order to foster their motor development.
