Abstract

Cilj ovog rada bio je utvrditi postoji li razlika u morfološkom statusu djece koja su uključena u organizirane sportske aktivnosti u svom dječjem vrti u i morfološkom statusu djece koja ne pohađaju takav oblik organizirane sportske aktivnosti. Istraživanje je provedeno u 3 dječja vrtića u gradu Zagrebu u RH u veljači 2024. godine. Istraživanjem su bila obuhvaćena 102 ispitanika, odnosno djece predškolske dobi, a sve u skladu s Etičkim kodeksom Sveučilišta u Zagrebu. Rezultati su pokazali da postoje statistički značajne razlike u morfološkom statusu djece koja su uključena u organizirane sportske aktivnosti i one djece koja nisu, mjereno varijablama tjelesne težine, tjelesne visine, opsega struka i bokova, WHR indeksa, postotka tjelesne masti te kožnih nabora ruku, leđa i trbuha. Djeca uključena u organizirane sportske programe pokazuju bolje rezultate u svim antropometrijskim mjerenjima koja su bila obuhvaćena ovim istraživanjem za razliku od djece koja nisu uključena u aktivnosti takve vrste. Upravo ovakvi rezultati pokazuju važnost uključivanja djece u bilo kakvu vrstu tjelesne aktivnosti, a pogotovo onu organiziranu koja je praćena od strane profesionalaca i prilagođena djetetovim razvojnim karakteristikama. Drugim rije ima rečeno, sport uvelike pridonosi psihofizičkom odgoju djeteta, pravilnom rastu i razvoju, izgrađuje karakter i olakšava prilagođavanje zajednici.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this research was to ensure whether there is a difference in the morphological status within children which were included in organized sports activities within their kindergarten programs and the morphological status within children which were not included in organized sports activities within their kindergarten programs. The research has been conducted in 3 kindergarten facilities in Zagreb, Croatia, in February of 2024. The research includes 102 participants, or in other words – children of preschool age, all in compliance with the Code of Ethics of the University of Zagreb. The results have shown that there are notable differences in the morphological status of children who are included in the organized sports activities and in the morphological status of those who are not, measured by variables of body weight, body height, waist circumference, hip circumference, WHR index, body fat percentage, and skinfolds of the arms, back, and abdomen. Those included in the organized sports programs have shown better results in allof the anthropological measurements which were included in this research, compared to those who were not included in the aforementioned activities. These results in particular show the importance of including children in physical activities alike, especially those organized and supervised by professionals and adapted to the child’s developmental characteristics. In other words, sport greatly contributes to the psychophysical development of a child and its proper growth. It also builds their character and assists them with adapting to communities.
