美和技術學院學生與臺灣地區同年齡學生體適能常模之比較－－以90-94學年度為例

A Comparison between the College Students of Meiho Institute of Technology with the General Population of Taiwan in Physical Fitness--Using 2001-2005 School Years As an Example

本研究旨在探討美和技術學院 90 至94 連續五個學年度，四技與五專新生的體適能表現與「台灣地區大專學生體適能檢測常模」和「台灣地區八歲至二十三歲學生的體適能常模測驗」的差異比較，以評估本校同年齡學生體適能之狀況；以四技新生男生576 人、女生1434 人及五專新生女生1186 人為研究對象，依教育部所頒布之體適能檢測項目與方法：身體質量指數（BMI 指數）、柔軟度（坐姿體前彎）、瞬發力（立定跳遠）、肌力與肌耐力（一分鐘屈膝仰臥起坐）、心肺耐力（女800M/男1600M 跑走）進行施測，使用SPSS 套裝軟體，經單一樣本t檢定後，獲得以下結果：（一）91 至94 學年度四技一18 歲男生在瞬發力及心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。（二）92 至94 學年度四技一19 歲男生在肌力與肌耐力、瞬發力及心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。（三）90 至94 學年度四技一18 歲女生在瞬發力及心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。（四）90 至94 學年度四技一19 歲女生在心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。（五）91 至94 學年度五專一年級15 歲女生在瞬發力及心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。（六）91 至94 學年度五專一年級16 歲女生在瞬發力及心肺耐力的表現，顯著低於台灣地區同年齡學生的平均水準。根據以上結果，本研究之結論包括：（一）美和技術學院學生之體適能水準普遍低於台灣地區同年齡學生；（二）學校對於學生體適能低落，現應提出體適能教學之策略，以提升學生之健康程度。

The purpose of this study was to make comparison between the students of Meiho Institute in the four year college program and in the five year junior college program with the college students of Taiwan area and the 8-23 age group students of Taiwan area in level of physical fitness to evaluate the level of physical fitness. The objects included 576 males and 1434 females in the four year college program and 1186 females in the five year junior college program. With the Standard Evaluation for the Physical Fitness issued by the Ministry of Education, the Body Mass Index(BMI), flexibility (sit & bending forward), starting power(long jump), the muscle strength/endurance (one-minute sit-up), and aerobic respiratory endurance(female 800 m/male 1600m run) were used to evaluate. The results of this study were as follows, based on the SPSS Analysis and adopting one sample test. I. The average levels for the muscle strength/endurance, starting power and aerobic respiratory endurance were significantly lower among 19 year-old males in the four-year college program from 2003-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. II. The average levels for the starting power and aerobic respiratory endurance were significantly lower among 18 year-old females in the four-year college program from 2001-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. III. The average level for the starting power and aerobic respiratory endurance were significantly lower among 18 year-old females in the four- year college program from 2001-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. IV. The average level for the aerobic respiratory endurance was significantly lower among 19 year-old females in the four- year college program from 2001-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. V. The average levels for the starting power and aerobic respiratory endurance were significantly lower among 15 year-old females in the five-year college program from 2002-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan. VI. The average levels for the starting power and aerobic respiratory endurance were significantly lower among 16 year-old females in the five-year junior college program from 2002-2005 school years, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. According to the results of this study, our conclusions are as follows: (1) Physical fitness of the college students were significantly lower than that of the general population, when compared with the same age group in Taiwan area. (2) This institute has to take appropriate measures to improve the level of physical fitness for the students here.
