Abstract

Objective: This study aims to retrospectively evaluate the fundamental motor competence of healthy early adolescents and to examine the affecting factors. Materials and Methods: 89 children aged 11.33±0.95 were included in the study. Minnesota Manual Dexterity Test (MMDT) for manual dexterity, 9-Hole Peg Test (9-HPT) for finger dexterity, Korebalance™ Premiere for balance, manual muscle strength measurement device for quadriceps muscle strength, hand dynamometer for hand grip strength, EMG Biofeedback for muscle activation was used. Results: Compared by gender, there was a statistically significant difference in the right and left-hand placing of MMDT and 9-HPT (p=0.004, p=0.041, p=0.004, respectively). In comparison of the age groups, there was a statistically significant difference in the left-hand placing and turning subtests of MMDT and left grip strength (p=0.010, p=0.048, p=0.025, respectively). In a correlation analyses, age had a correlation with the left-hand placing of MMDT (r=-0.336, p=0.001); and left grip strength (r=0.219, p=0.039). Height and weight had a correlation with dynamic balance (r=-0.242, p=0.022; r=-0.244, p=0.021). Weight and BMI had a correlation with static balance (r=0.342, p=0.001; r=0.305, p=0.004) and EMG Biofeedback score (r=0.237,p=0.025; r=0.212,p=0.046). Conclusion: Manual dexterity and hand grip strength develop with age in children, and girls' manual and finger dexterities are better than boys. While the increase in BMI and weight affect static balance negatively, the increase in height and weight affect dynamic balance positively. It is thought that investigating the factors affecting motor competence will be important in evaluating the development of children and directing them to appropriate sports.
Keywords: Balance, Finger dexterity, Manual dexterity, Muscle activation.

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmadaki amacımız, erken adölesan dönemdeki çocukların temel motor yeterliliklerini retrospektif olarak değerlendirmek ve etkileyen faktörleri incelemektir. Yöntemler: Çalışmaya yaşları 11.33±0.95 olan 89 çocuk dahil edildi. El becerisi Minnesota El Beceri Testi (MEBT) ile, parmak becerisi 9 Delikli Peg Test (9-DPT) ile, denge Korebalance™Premiere ile, kuadriseps kas gücü manuel kas gücü ölçüm cihazı ile, el kavrama gücü el dinamometresi ile, kas aktivasyonu EMG Biofeedback ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Verilerin cinsiyete göre karşılaştırılmasında MEBT sağ ve sol-el yerleştirme ve 9-DPT'in arasında (sırasıyla p=0.004, p=0.041, p=0.004); yaş gruplarına göre karşılaştırılmasında MEBT'nin sol-yerleştirme ve döndürme testleri ile sol kavrama kuvveti arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardı (sırasıyla p=0.010, p=0.048, p=0.025). Korelasyon analizinde yaş ile MMDT'nin sol-yerleştirme (r=-0.336,p=0.001) ve sol kavrama kuvvetiyle (r=0.219,p=0.039); boy (r=-0.242,p=0.022) ve kilonun (r=-0.244,p=0.021) dinamik denge ile, kilo ve beden kitle indeksinin (BKİ) statik denge (r=0.342,p=0.001; r=0.305,p=0.004) ve EMG Biofeedback skoru (r=0.237,p=0.025; r=0.212,p=0.046) ile korelasyonu vardı.
Sonuç: Çocuklarda yaş ilerledikçe el becerisi ve el kavrama kuvveti gelişmekte olup kızların el ve parmak becerileri erkeklere göre daha iyidir. BKİ ve kilonun artması statik dengeyi olumsuz yönde etkilerken, boy ve kilonun artması dinamik dengeyi olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. Motor yeterliliği etkileyen faktörlerin araştırılmasının çocukların gelişimlerinin değerlendirilmesi ve uygun sporlara yönlendirilmesi açısından önemli olacağı düşünülmektedir.
