Abstract

The purpose of the study is to analyze the relation between the state of health and the performance of pupils from middle school in the city (U) and village (R) starting from the hypothesis that the body mass index (BMI) is a good indicator and at the same time it can indicate the probability that subjects with a healthy weight can achieve better results at tests regarding motor skills from the curricular area – according to age and gender – compared with subjects who do not have a healthy weight. Subjects. At the study took part pupils from middle school: N=200, the pattern being established for a confidence level of 95%, with a normal distribution of 50% and the margin of error 6,8, the results of the study being valid for 43,1 %-56,9% of the population with ages between 11-16 years in Arad county. Methodology. The stature and the weight were scaled and the body mass index (BMI) was determined according to pediatric charts. For motor skills tests were made from the curricular area for the V-VIIIth grades: speed 50m(S), throwing small ball (TSB), endurance (E) (600m and 800m F, respectively 800m and 1000m B), back extension (BE), abdomens (A), pushups (PU) and standing long jump (SLJ). The data was processed statistically with IBM SPSS Statistic 20 and MedCalc. Results. The body mass indexes associated with performance, thereby: pupils with normal weight presented high chances of performing compared to those overweight and obese, 3 times at the 50 m S, 2 times at TSB and at A, 3,5 times at PU and 4 times at SLJ, related to the values corresponding to the mark 8 and above, from a whole of 5 from 7 tests. Conclusions. In the present stage of the study significant differences were observed regarding the growth and development period compared with the level of motor skills of pupils, but without differences compared to their background (U/R). Although the data indicate that a healthy body mass index is associated with bio motor performance, the present standards for motor skill tests are not congruent with the growth and development stage of the present scholar population.
