The aim of the current research was to explore the relationship between motor competence, physical fitness and self-perception, and to study to which extent this relationship may vary by gender.
A sample of 67 children (mean age 11.46 years, SD 0.27) completed Harter's Self-Perception Profile for Children (SPPC), the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC) and the Test of Physical Fitness (TPF) to assess self-perception, motor competence and physical fitness.
The SPPC was stronger related to total score on TPF than to total score on MABC. However, when looking at boys and girls separately, this result was found for the boys only. In the group in general, total scores on both TPF and MABC correlated significantly with three of the domains of SPPC (social acceptance, athletic competence and physical appearance) and general self-worth. This relationship varied by gender. Interestingly, TPF was highest correlated with perception of athletic competence in boys but with perception of social acceptance in girls. A high and significant correlation was found between physical fitness and motor competence for both genders.
The results indicated a strong relationship between physical fitness, motor competence and self-perception in children that varied by gender. This implies that all these factors are essential contributions in order to facilitate participation in physical activity in children.
本研究旨在探讨运动能力、身体素质与自我认知之间的关系，并研究这种关系在性别上的差异程度。
67名儿童（平均年龄11.46岁，标准差0.27）完成了哈特儿童自我认知量表（SPPC）、儿童运动评估量表（MABC）和身体素质测试（TPF），以评估自我认知、运动能力和身体素质。
SPPC与TPF总分的相关性强于与MABC总分的相关性。然而，当分别观察男孩和女孩时，这一结果仅在男孩中发现。总体而言，TPF和MABC的总分与SPPC的三个领域（社会接纳、运动能力和外貌）以及总体自我价值显著相关。这种关系因性别而异。有趣的是，TPF与男孩的运动能力感知相关性最高，但与女孩的社会接纳感知相关性最高。男女的身体素质和运动能力之间都存在高度显著的相关性。
结果表明，儿童的身体素质、运动能力和自我认知之间存在密切关系，且因性别而异。这意味着所有这些因素对于促进儿童参与体育活动都至关重要。
