This study examined the relationship among motor skill competence, perceived motor competence (PMC), health-related physical fitness and physical activity in 8-9-year-old Iranian girls (n = 352).
Locomotor and object control motor skill competence was assessed using the Test of Gross Motor Development - 2nd edition. PMC was assessed using the Physical Ability subscale of Marsh's Self-Description Questionnaire-1. Health-related physical fitness was measured with body mass index, the 600 yard run/walk, curl-ups, push-ups, and back-saver sit and reach tests. Children's physical activity was assessed using the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children.
Regression analysis revealed that locomotor proficiency, aerobic fitness and PMC accounted for 56% (P < .001) of variance associated with moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.
The findings warrant future investigations that examine interventions that focus on motor skill and perceived competence along with aerobic fitness to promote physical activity in girls.
本研究调查了352名8至9岁伊朗女孩的运动技能能力、感知运动能力（PMC）、健康相关身体素质与身体活动之间的关系。
使用《粗大运动发展测试》第二版评估运动和物体控制运动技能能力。使用马什自我描述问卷-1的身体能力分量表评估PMC。通过体重指数、600码跑/走、仰卧起坐、俯卧撑和背部保护坐姿体前屈测试来测量健康相关身体素质。使用《大龄儿童身体活动问卷》评估儿童的身体活动。
回归分析显示，运动熟练度、有氧适能和PMC占与中度至剧烈身体活动相关方差的56%（P < .001）。
这些发现为未来的研究提供了依据，这些研究将考察专注于运动技能、感知能力以及有氧适能以促进女孩身体活动的干预措施。
