Comparison of the level of physical ability of children from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Czech Republic in the context of the stimulus to physical activity

Original language description

The inclination of the youngest age groups of the population to inactivity has been associated with an increase in orthopedic diseases, overweight, obesity and cardiovascular disease in the adult population not only in the Czech Republic. In order to determine the cause of this condition we monitored the relationship and impact of environmental factors on the volume and intensity of physical activity (PA). The aim of this study was to compare the environmental stimuli to the PA and the level of selected motor abilities of children aged 9-11 years, in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Czech Republic. The partial aim was to assess the PA of the sample with regard to intersex differences. The sample consisted of 126 children aged 9-11 years from selected regions of the countries. The level of motor abilities of children was found by Eurofit test and environmental stimulation to the PA was found by questionnaire ESPA (Environmental Stimulus for Physical Activities). The results showed differences in overall score of environmental stimulation to PA among children from Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Czech Republic. In the test of motor abilities boys from Bosnia and Herzegovina showed significantly better results than boys from Czech Republic in the Plate tapping (p &lt;0.001), Sit and reach (p &lt;0,02), Sit - ups (p &lt;0,01) and the Shuttle run 10x5 m (p &lt;0.002). In girls, there was a significant difference between the samples from both countries only in speed of limb movement – Plate tapping (p &lt;0,01) where girls from Bosnia and Herzegovina have achieved better time (14,69 ± 2,20 sec) in comparison to girls from Czech Republic (16,00 ± 1,16 sec). It was proved relation between spatial stimulation and levels of selected motor abilities. The relationship between material stimulation and levels of physical ability were found.
