Computing and Evaluating Relationships Between Equal and Differential Factor Weighting for Fundamental Movement Skills and Physical Activity with Guided Active Play During Childhood
Background/Objectives: The Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-2) totals assume equal weighting of the 12 locomotor (LOC) and object control (OC) skills, yet validation studies indicate differential contributions. The study compared equal- and differential-weighted scores for LOC and OC skills, with three fitness and two physical activity (PA) outputs during guided active play (GAP). Methods: Children's (n = 82; 7.6 ± 1.5 years) TGMD-2 LOC and …
The Role of Fundamental Movement Skills and Health-Related Fitness on Physical Activity During Guided Active Play for 8- to 10-Year-Old Children
Background: Active play has been proposed to complement school-based physical activity (PA) and promote increased movement-related activities relevant for the development of motor competence. Guided active play (GAP) paired with cooperative games provides sufficient moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) to improve motor competence for younger children. Whether guided active play exhibits physical activity outputs that are related to motor…
Stable physical activity tracking during children's guided active play
Objective Physical activity (PA) decreases during childhood with PA tracking statistics showing moderate coefficients in early childhood moving to poor coefficients in late childhood. The age-related instability of PA tracking is attributed to variations in age-related PA behaviors when quantifying PA in different settings (in/out of school, sports camps, and habitual PA). This study has examined the stability of age-related PA for children (from…
