The goal of this thesis is to ascertain results in test battery in young school age children, specifically aged 6.-9. years, who took part in project Sazka Olympijský víceboj. We were especially focused on disciplines of Olympijský diplom, which examine motor abilities by using motor tests. Unfortunately, because of Covid-19 pandemic situation, we had to request the results of mentioned tests from elementary schools, and also from organisation, that manages the whole project. The data we have received were from three elementary schools from Central Bohemian Region and Prague. All data were from first stage of elementary school and were measured between 2016-2020, because these data were the most current ones. The practical part of this thesis was formed as quantitative form of research. Population was composed of 92 schoolchildren, who took part in project Olympijský diplom between 2016- 2020 and were in first, second and third year of elementary school during these years. Girls were included in total count of 51 and boys were included in total count of 41. We have analysed collected data from different aspects. The aim of our interest were average values according to gender, school year and also comparison of class with orientation on sports and casual class. The research part of this thesis...

Title: Influence of physical demands on shooting accuracy with hand-operated weapon. Objectives: Aim of this thesis is compare how physical load, present by Burpee motor abilities test, aplicate on selected group of soldiers influence their shooting accuracy from pistol in stand up position with bouth hands grip at standing target. Aggregate of twenty test subjects is comosed of policemen from Department of protect and escort Military police Prague and students from VO at FTVS UK in Prague. Methods: For statistical data processing we used the method of comparison and comparison of averages. To determine statistical significance, we used two- tailed, paired t - test. For the evaluation targets, we used numerical method for detecting mean point of impact. Results: The measured data were processed statistically, it was found that physical activity has statistical effect on the shooting accuracy, while standing and with both hands grip, from pistole in the first group (MP). The second measurement work out similary, which mean physical exercise has statistical effect on the shooting accuracy, while standing and with both hands grip, from pistole. Furthermore, we found that the greatest influence on shooting accuracy after physical exertion realized by Burpee test, have the individual level of fitness...

<p>Na uzorku od 358 devojčica sa teritorije Vojvodine, uzrasta od 11,50 &ndash; 16 decimalnih godina, od kojih 186 odbojka&scaron;ica (najmanje tri godine u trenažnom procesu),<br />i 172 devojčice koje se ne bave organizovanom fizičkom aktivno&scaron;ću, sprovedeno je istraživanje morfolo&scaron;kih karakteristika, motoričkih i intelektualnih sposobnosti. Cilj istraživanja je bio da se utvrde specifičnosti mladih odbojka&scaron;ica u odnosu na devojčice koje se ne bave organizovanom fizičkom aktivno&scaron;ću, testiranjem kako kvantitativnih, tako i razlika u strukturi sposobnosti definisanih predmetom istraživanja. Uvidom u rezultate, možemo zaključiti da se devojčice koje se bave odbojkom odlikuju većim vrednostima telesne visine i telesne mase, obima grudi,<br />nadlaktice i podlaktice u odnosu na devojčice koje se ne bave organizovanom fizičkom aktivno&scaron;ću. Iako u varijablama za procenu potkožnog masnog tkiva nije<br />do&scaron;lo do statistički značajnih razlika, u dve od tri grupe vidimo da su kod odbojka&scaron;ica manje vrednosti varijabli kožnih nabora, ali ne i statistički značajno manje.<br />Navedene razlike grupa devojčica u prostoru morfolo&scaron;kih karakteristika su proiza&scaron;le na osnovu procesa selekcije i rasta i razvoja (telesna visina, volumen i masa tela), dok se manje vrednosti u potkožnom masnom tkivu odbojka&scaron;ica mogu pripisati<br />trenažnom tretmanu bavljenja odbojkom. Na osnovu rezultata primenjene kongruencije ekstrahovanih faktora, možemo zaključiti da se grupe devojčica ne<br />razlikuju u strukturi prvih izolovanih faktora &ndash; koji defini&scaron;u strukturu morfolo&scaron;kog prostora, ali da postoji razlika u strukturi drugih i trećih faktora koji defini&scaron;u<br />varijable za procenu motoričkih sposobnosti i inteligencije. Posebno je važno sagledati razliku u strukturi drugih faktora po uzrastu, odnosno važnost<br />pojedinih motoričkih varijabli gde se vidi da je na uzorku odbojka&scaron;ica motorički prostor mnogo homogeniji, jasnije definisan, sa dominacijom varijabli<br />za procenu intenziteta i trajanja ekscitacije i struktuiranja kretanja. Na osnovu sprovedenog istraživanja o specifičnostima antropolo&scaron;kog prostora<br />dve grupe devojčica starijeg &scaron;kolskog uzrasta, a u skladu sa postavljenim ciljevima i zadacima i u kome su proveravane definisane hipoteze, može se generalno<br />zaključiti da se devojčice koje su u trenažnom programu &ndash; odbojka&scaron;ice statistički značajno razlikuju u morfolo&scaron;kom i motoričkom prostoru od ispitanica koje<br />se ne bave organizovanom fizičkom aktivno&scaron;ću, dok u intelektualnom funkcionisanju dve grupe ispitanica nisu uočene statistički značajne razlike.</p> / <p>A research of morphological features, motor abilities and intelligence was carried out on the sample of 358 girls from the territory of Vojvodina, 11, 50 &ndash; 16 years old, out of which 186 female volleyball players (at least three years in training process) and 172 girls that do not practice organized physical activities. The aim of this study was to determine the specificity of young volleyball players compared to girls who are not involved in physical activity, testing of quantitative as well as differences in the structure of skills defined by the subject of research. After examining the results, we can conclude that girls engaged in volleyball are characterized by higher values of body height and body weight, chest circumference, upper arm and forearm girth in<br />relation to girls who are not involved in physical activity. Although there were no statistically significant differences in the variables for estimating body fat, on the basis of the differences in two of the three groups, we see lower skin fold values of volleyball players, but not significantly lower. These differences of girls in the area of morphological characteristics are derived on the basis of the selection process<br />and the growth and development (height, volume and mass of the body), while the lower values in the subcutaneous adipose tissue of volleyball players can be attributed to the training treatment practicing volleyball. Based on the results of applied congruence of factors extracted, it can be concluded that groups of<br />girls do not differ in the structure of the first isolated factors - that define the structure of the morphological space, but there is a difference in the structure of the second and third factors that define the variables of motor abilities and intelligence. It is particularly important to see the difference in the structure of other factors,<br />by age or importance of certain motor variables by which can be seen that the sample of volleyball players in the motor space is far more homogeneous, more clearly defined, with the domination of variables regarding the intensity and duration of excitation and structuring of movement. On the basis of the research on the<br />specificity of the anthropological area, two groups of girls of school age, in line with the set goals and tasks in which they checked defined hypotheses, a general conclusion is that girls who are in the training program - volleyball players differ significantly in morphology and motor area in respect of girls who are not<br />involved in physical activity, while in the intellectual functioning of two groups of<br />subjects were not observed statistically significant differences.</p>

In my thesis, I focused on the development of motor skills of preschool children through games with an athletic theme. The theoretical part specifies in detail the preschool age, physical abilities - coordination, strength, speed and endurance. This part deals with the specifics of sports training preschoolers and athletics as such. In the practical part I have created a set of games with an athletic theme. Games are focused on the development of motor abilities and skills - running, jumping and throwing. These games I verified in practice and evaluation of resulting in the practical part. The practical part of the thesis is also an experiment in which I find the level of motor performance of preschool children at the beginning and after the end of the experime

In its theoretical part, the thesis "Postural Function at Early Age and Final Condition of Motor Functions at Preschool Age" summarizes the knowledge of motor abilities and skills, postural control and development, control and development of rough and fine motorics. At the same time, the theoretical part resumes briefly characteristic features of developmental coordination disorders, way of their diagnostics and possible treatment. Furthermore, it presents the most common tests used for motorics assessment and its disorders. Practical part focuses on comparison of results according to developmental kinesiology as an investigation method and MABC-2 test. There have not been found any statistically important relations between the results of the developmental kinesiology test as an investigation method performed in the first and fifth week and in the third month of postnatal development and the results of MABC-2 test performed in the same children at school age. Likewise, there seem to be no statistically important relation between the results of MABC-2 test in children playing sports and those not playing any sport, neither in the results of MABC-2 test in children of sporting parents and non- sporting parents. Key words: Postural function, developmental kinesiology, motor abilities, motor skills,...

Thus, this study had as goal to check the influence of a sporting initiation program in the development of fundamental motor abilities of children with physical disabilities. Specifically, we seek to elaborate, apply and describe a sporting initiation program directed to children with physical disabilities; to establish criteria/ parameters for evaluation of fundamental motor abilities of children with physical disabilities contextualized in a sporting initiation program; to verify in which areas of fundamental motor abilities of children with physical disabilities the program exercised greater or lesser influence, before and after the proposed intervention. This is a study of quali-quantitative approach, it characterized as research field, of type quantitative-descriptive directed to "study of evaluation of the program". The study sample was incorporated for three children with physical disabilities, of both genders (2 M and 1 F) and age range between six and ten years old. The instruments of data collection utilized were the systematic observation (the tab) and Evaluation Protocol of Sporting Initiation (PAIE) that was developed by the researcher as a means of evaluating the program and the evolution of the participants. The research was divided in four steps: 1) The achievement the anamnesis 2) The application of initial evaluation 3) The development of the program of sporting initiation for children with physical disabilities, which lasted eight weeks, three sessions / lessons per weeks, for a total of twenty four sessions in a period of two-month of intervention. Each one of sessions was planned with average duration of fifty minutes; 4) The application of final evaluation. As a way of analysis of the data obtained by means of the protocol, it was utilized descriptive statistic analysis; the field diary was interpreted in the light of content analysis. The suggested and employee instrument as parameters for evaluation pre and post intervention (PAIE) was sensitive for the characteristics of the children with physical disabilities participating in the study; being able to check the involved variables in the program. Analysis of the results showed that the involved participants in the study (n=3) obtained improvements in each one of three fundamental motor abilities. It was possible to conclude that in general, the program of sporting initiation directed for children with physical disabilities was efficient for the development these abilities. / Ao refletir sobre a necessidade de desenvolvimento das habilidades motoras para qualquer indivíduo, e tendo em vista que a maioria das crianças com deficiência física encontra-se parcialmente ou totalmente privada da exploração do seu corpo e de vivências motoras diversificadas, surgiu o ideal de sistematização de um programa de iniciação esportiva, utilizando-se de jogos e brincadeiras, com a finalidade de desenvolver as habilidades motoras fundamentais (estabilizadoras, locomotoras e manipulativas) voltadas a iniciação esportiva. Portanto, esse estudo teve como objetivo verificar a influência de um programa de iniciação esportiva no desenvolvimento das habilidades motoras fundamentais de crianças com deficiência física. Especificamente, busca-se elaborar, aplicar e descrever um programa de iniciação esportiva voltado para crianças com deficiência física; estabelecer critérios/ parâmetros de avaliação de habilidades motoras fundamentais de crianças com deficiências físicas contextualizadas em um programa de iniciação esportiva; verificar em quais áreas das habilidades motoras fundamentais de crianças com deficiência física o programa exerceu maior ou menor influência, antes e após a intervenção proposta. Trata-se de um estudo de enfoque quali-quantitativo, caracterizado como pesquisa de campo, do tipo quantitativodescritivo voltado ao estudo de avaliação de programa . A amostra do estudo foi constituída por três crianças com deficiência física, de ambos os gêneros (2 M e 1 F) e faixa etária entre 6 e 10 anos de idade. Os instrumentos de coleta de dados utilizados foram a observação sistemática (ficha de registro) e o Protocolo Avaliativo de Iniciação Esportiva (PAIE), elaborado pelo pesquisador como meio de avaliar o programa e a evolução dos participantes. A pesquisa foi dividida em quatro etapas: 1) Realização da anamnese; 2) Aplicação da avaliação inicial; 3) Desenvolvimento do programa de iniciação esportiva para crianças com deficiência física, o qual teve duração de oito semanas, três sessões/aulas por semana, perfazendo um total de 24 sessões num período de dois meses de intervenção. Cada uma das sessões foi planejada com uma duração média de 50 minutos; 4) Aplicação da avaliação final. Como forma de análise dos dados obtidos por meio do protocolo, foi utilizada a análise estatística descritiva; o diário de campo foi interpretado à luz da análise de conteúdo. O instrumento sugerido e empregado como parâmetro de avaliação pré e pós intervenção (PAIE) foi sensível às características das crianças com deficiência física participantes do estudo, sendo capaz de avaliar as variáveis envolvidas no programa. A análise dos resultados demonstrou que os participantes envolvidos no estudo (n=3) obtiveram melhoras em cada uma das três habilidades motoras fundamentais. Foi possível concluir que, de maneira geral, o programa de iniciação esportiva voltado a crianças com deficiência física foi eficaz para o desenvolvimento dessas habilidades.

According to Dalla Déa, Baldin, Dalla Déa (2009), there are some characteristics in common among people with DS. However, not all of such characteristics are present in all of the people. Some show few characteristics whereas others may show a larger number of them. Among the physical characteristics, we can highlight the epicanthic wrinkle and obliquely placed eyes, small ears with low implant, small nose, hypotonic tongue, small mouth and teeth, fine and straight hair, transversal palm wrinkle, distance among the toes and deep hollow in the sole of the feet. In Brazil, according to the results of the 2000 IBGE (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística) Census, there are 8.000 new cases of children with the syndrome every year in Brazil, that is, around 300 thousand people have acquired Down syndrome (MOELLER, 2006). The objective of this dissertation is to study the influence of a gymnastics program on the motor development, growth and body mass index (BMI) in children with DS. The study is regarded as experimental, of the before and after type (GIL, 2009). Seven children with DS aged 3 to 7, who took part regularly in the APAE activities were included. The research has been approved in the Committee for Ethics in Research with Human Beings of the PRPPG of the UFG (no 082/2008). The intervention was conducted from August to December, 2008. In order to evaluate motor development Francisco Rosa Netos s (2002) Scale of Motor Development (SMD) was used, and in order to determine BMI Key s (1973) equation and WHO values (2007) were used. BMI was evaluated also taking into consideration the parameters for children with Down syndrome (ZAN MUSTACCI, 2002). For the statistical treatment, the average and standard deviation of all quantitative data obtained before and after the intervention have been calculated. The Wilson test was employed to compare the moments, and significance level reached 5%. All procedures were conducted in the computer pack SPSS, 10.0. The seven children with DS had average body weight of 13,6 ± 2,66 before the intervention and 14,3 ± 2,44 kg after the intervention. The BMI found was 16,25 ± 0,99 kg/m² before the program and 16,2 ± 1,08 kg/m² at the end of the program. The gymnastics did not produce statistically significant alterations in the anthropometric variables. Nevertheless, in connection with motor abilities, this practice has contributed significantly approximating the children to the reference values established for their respective ages. / O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar a influência de um programa de Ginástica sobre o desenvolvimento motor, crescimento e o índice de massa corporal (IMC) de crianças com SD. O estudo de caráter experimental durou 12 semanas e contou com sete crianças (6 meninos e 1 menina) com Síndrome de Down com idades entre 3 e 5 anos. As crianças foram avaliadas antes e após a intervenção profissional nas variáveis de desenvolvimento motor, de peso, estatura e IMC. As sete crianças com SD tinham peso corporal médio de 13,6 ± 2,66 kg antes da intervenção e de 14,3 ± 2,44 kg. após a intervenção. A média da estatura foi de 93,3 ±6,38 cm antes e de 93,8± 6,34 cm após a intervenção. O IMC encontrado foi de 16,25 ± 0,99 kg/m² antes do programa e de 16,2 ± 1,08 kg/m² ao final do programa. O programa de Ginástica não promoveu alterações estatisticamente significantes nas variáveis antropométricas, todavia em relação às habilidades motoras esta prática corporal contribuiu significativamente aproximando as crianças aos valores de referência estabelecidos para as respectivas idades das mesmas.

The goal of the thesis is to determine the level of motoric abilities of the children in primary school age (years of birth 2006 and 2007) who do the selected sports games such handball, football, volleyball and basketball. I tested the level of motoric abilities using the test battery Unifittest (6 - 60) what is suitable tool for testing. The testing was carried out in six sports clubs in the Central Bohemian Region and the Vysočina Region. I compared the level of motoric abilities of the children in primary school age doing the sports with standard population and subsequently made a comparison between selected sports. The other task was also to determine whether the structure of sport performance of selected sports will influence the level of motoric abilities of the children in primary school age. The research-oriented part proves that there is no significant difference in average results. The testing showed that handball and basketball players have the highest levels of motoric abilities. The research also showed that the sportsmen in primary school age have the worst results in the tests focused on physical condition of players.

La naissance prématurée se caractérise par des expériences multisensorielles et sensorimotrices atypiques lors d’une période du développement très sensible à ces dernières (Koenig-Zores & Kuhn, 2016). Les recherches ont mis en évidence un impact significatif de la prématurité sur le développement des enfants (Marret et al., 2015) induisant notamment des troubles perceptivo-moteurs avec ou sans troubles neurologiques associés (De Rose et al., 2013). Cependant, si beaucoup d’études portent sur la motricité des nouveau-nés et nourrissons nés prématurés, peu de données existent sur le développement perceptivo-moteur des enfants nés prématurés sans diagnostic de trouble neurodéveloppemental. La question principale abordée dans cette thèse est de savoir si la prématurité n’induit pas des signatures motrices spécifiques, même en absence de ces troubles. Dans l’objectif de répondre à cette question, différents tests standardisés, et trois tâches expérimentales impliquant la perception des équivalences intermodalitaires, la coordination visuomotrice et le contrôle postural, ont été proposés à 48 enfants nés à terme et 32 enfants nés grands prématurés sans diagnostic de trouble neurodéveloppemental et tous âgés de 8 ans. Les résultats ont mis en évidence dans les deux groupes des habiletés comparables de perception des équivalences intermodalitaires dans les modalités haptique et visuelle. Cependant, ils ont aussi révélé une efficience moindre de la coordination visuomotrice et du contrôle postural chez les enfants nés prématurés en comparaison des enfants nés à terme. Ces différences suggèrent des processus perceptivo-moteurs différents chez les enfants nés grands prématurés sans diagnostic de trouble neurodéveloppemental âgés de 8 ans. Ces résultats offrent ainsi de nouvelles perspectives cliniques, notamment d’évaluation plus fine des habiletés perceptivo-motrices, ainsi que de nouveaux questionnements de recherche sur les trajectoires développementales de ces mêmes habiletés et des réseaux neuronaux sous-jacents chez les enfants nés prématurés. / Preterm birth is associated with atypical multisensory and sensorimotor experiences during a period of development sensitive to these experiences (Koenig-Zores & Kuhn, 2016). The studies showed a significant impact of prematurity on children development (Marret et al., 2015), such as perceptual-motor disorders, with or without associated neurological disorders (De Rose et al., 2013). However, even though there are many studies on motor abilities of preterm newborns and preterm infants, little data exists on perceptual-motor development of preterm children without neurodevelopmental disorders. The main question addressed in this thesis is to know whether prematurity does induce specific motor signatures, even in the absence of neurodevelopmental disorders. To answer this question, different standardized tests and three research tasks involving perception of intersensory equivalences, visuomotor coordination, and postural control, have been proposed to 48 full-term children and 32 very preterm children without any diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders, all aged 8 years old. The results revealed comparable perception abilities of intersensory equivalences in haptic and visual modalities in the preterm and the full-term groups. However, they also showed a lower efficiency of visuomotor coordination and postural control in the preterm children compared to the full-term children. These observations suggest different perceptual-motor processes in very preterm children without diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders at the age of 8. The results offer new clinical opportunities for a more precise evaluation of perceptual-motor abilities, and new research questions about developmental trajectories of perceptual-motor abilities and underlying neuronal networks, in preterm children.
