Abstract

Cilj ovog diplomskog rada je utvrditi razlike u antropološkim karakteristikama ( antropometrijske karakteristike i motoričke sposobnosti ) između dječaka i djevojčica predškolske dobi te je u skladu sa ciljem provedeno i istraživanje kako bi se došlo do zaključka postoje li razlike, te ukoliko postoje, u kojim karakteristikama.
U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 51 dijete ( 24 djevojčica i 27 dječaka ) koje je provedeno u dva vrtića Krapinsko – zagorske županije u dobi od 6 godina. Uzorak varijabli čine dvije antropometrijske mjere ( tjelesna visina i tjelesna masa ) te četiri testa za procjenu motoričkih sposobnosti ( brzina, eksplozivna snaga, repetitivna snaga, koordinacija ).
Istraživanje je provedeno s namjerom da se proširi znanje o antropološkim karakteristikama te sama važnost praćenja koja je potrebna kako od strane roditelja, tako i od odgojitelja. Prikupljeni podaci obrađeni su programskim paketom Statistica 13. Značajnost razlika aritmetičkih sredina među spolovima mjerena je Mann–Whitneyevim „U“ testom. Dobiveni rezultati pokazali su postojanje značajnih razlika u antropometrijskim karakteristikama i motoričkim sposobnostima među spolovima. Zaključci ovog istraživanja potvrdit će i dosadašnja istraživanja.
Upotrebom literatura istražit će se i antropološka obilježja, točnije antropometrijske karakteristike i motoričke sposobnosti; razvojne karakteristike djece predškolske dobi te neka dosadašnja provedena istraživanja.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this graduate paper is related to identifying differences in anthropological characteristics (anthropometric characteristics and motor skills) between boys and girls of preschool age and in relation to that, research was provided to conclude if there are any differences, and if they really are, in which anthropological characteristics we can see them.
The research involved 51 children (24 girls and 27 boys) who were conducted in two kindergartens in Krapina-Zagorje county at the age of 6. The sample of variables consists of two anthropometric measures (body height and body mass) and four tests to assess motor skills (speed, explosive power, repetitive power, coordination).
The research was provided in purpose of expanding the knowledge of anthropological characteristics and the importance of tracking and reacting in time which should be necessary from both parents and preschool teachers. The collected data were processed by the software package Statistica 13. The significance of differences in arithmetic means between the gender was measured by Mann-Whitney "U" test. The obtained results showed the existence of significant differences in anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities between the genders. Results of this research will confirm the results of previous research on the same or similar basis.
By using various literature we will investigate anthropological features, more specifically anthropometric characteristics and motor abilities; developmental characteristics of preschool children and some of the research done so far.
