The aim of this study was to define the role of the relative age effect in the 12th Winter European Youth Olympic Festival 2015. The birth dates of all 899 participants and anthropometric data of 655 participants were analyzed. A significant relative age effect was present in the total sample and among the male athletes but not in the female athletes. Additionally, a significant relative age effect was present in strength- and endurance-related sports but not in technique-related sports. Statistically significantly more older athletes won medals. Relative age had a strong influence on participation in strength- and endurance-related sports as well as on performance.
本研究的目的是确定相对年龄效应在2015年第12届冬季欧洲青年奥林匹克节中的作用。分析了所有899名参与者的出生日期以及655名参与者的人体测量数据。在总样本和男性运动员中存在显著的相对年龄效应，但在女性运动员中不存在。此外，在力量和耐力相关运动项目中存在显著的相对年龄效应，而在技术相关运动项目中不存在。从统计学上看，年龄较大的运动员获得奖牌的人数显著更多。相对年龄对参与力量和耐力相关运动以及运动表现有很大影响。
