The aim of this study was to determine if a potential relationship among physical activity (PA), fundamental movement skills and weight status exists amongst early adolescent youth. Participants were a sample of 85 students; 54 boys (mean age = 12.94 ± 0.33 years) and 31 girls (mean age = 12.75 ± 0.43 years). Data gathered during physical education class included PA (accelerometry), fundamental movement skills and anthropometric measurements. Standard multiple regression revealed that PA and total fundamental movement skill proficiency scores explained 16.5% (P < 0.001) of the variance in the prediction of body mass index. Chi-square tests for independence further indicated that compared with overweight or obese adolescents, a significantly higher proportion of adolescents classified as normal weight achieved mastery/near-mastery in fundamental movement skills. Results from the current investigation indicate that weight status is an important correlate of fundamental movement skill proficiency during adolescence. Aligned with most recent research, school- and community-based programmes that include developmentally structured learning experiences delivered by specialists can significantly improve fundamental movement skill proficiency in youth.
本研究的目的是确定在青少年早期人群中，身体活动（PA）、基本运动技能和体重状况之间是否存在潜在关系。研究对象为85名学生样本，其中54名男生（平均年龄 = 12.94 ± 0.33岁）和31名女生（平均年龄 = 12.75 ± 0.43岁）。在体育课上收集的数据包括身体活动（加速度计测量）、基本运动技能和人体测量数据。标准多元回归分析显示，身体活动和基本运动技能总熟练度得分可解释体重指数预测方差的16.5%（P < 0.001）。独立性卡方检验进一步表明，与超重或肥胖青少年相比，体重正常的青少年在基本运动技能方面达到熟练/接近熟练水平的比例显著更高。本次调查结果表明，体重状况是青少年时期基本运动技能熟练度的一个重要相关因素。与最新研究一致，基于学校和社区的项目，包括由专业人员提供的具有发展结构的学习体验，可以显著提高青少年的基本运动技能熟练度。
