To verify the agreement between PHYSICAL BEST and FITNESSGRAM health-related criteria for muscle strength and endurance.
This agreement study had a sample of 81 children and adolescents. Participants were submitted to the PHYSICAL BEST (Sit-up and Pull-up) and FITNESSGRAM (Curl-up and Modified Pull-up) test batteries. Additionally, FITNESSGRAM also proposed criteria for Pull-up test. Results of tests were classified in accordance with their respective criteria. Each group had an interval of seven days between the first and second battery of tests. Statistical analysis used the Kappa index (p<0.05).
Sit-up and Curl-up tests among the boys agreed in 72.2% (Kappa=0.368; p=0.004) of cases, and for the girls, in 64.4% (Kappa=0.130; p=0.076). Pull-up (PHYSICAL BEST versus FITNESSGRAM) agreed in 83.3% (Kappa=0.599; p<0.001) for boys. The agreement between Pull-up and Modified Pull-up (PHYSICAL BEST versus FITNESSGRAM) for boys was 47.2% (Kappa=0.071; p=0.533), and for girls, 44.5% (Kappa=0.102; p=0.120). The agreement between the Pull-up and Modified Pull-up tests (FITNESSGRAM) for boys was 58.4% (Kappa=0.215; p=0.143), and for girls, 44.5% (Kappa=0.102; p=0.120).
For individual analysis over time, as well as for the comparison of passing rates between different populations, caution is advised when using different criterion-referenced standards for strength and endurance, particularly if using different tests.
验证 PHYSICAL BEST 与 FITNESSGRAM 健康相关的肌肉力量和耐力标准之间的一致性。
本协议研究的样本包括 81 名儿童和青少年。参与者接受了 PHYSICAL BEST(仰卧起坐和引体向上)和 FITNESSGRAM(俯卧撑和改良引体向上)测试电池。此外,FITNESSGRAM 还为引体向上测试提出了标准。根据各自的标准对测试结果进行分类。每组在第一次和第二次测试电池之间有七天的间隔。统计分析使用 Kappa 指数(p<0.05)。
男孩的仰卧起坐和俯卧撑测试在 72.2%(Kappa=0.368;p=0.004)的情况下一致,而女孩的仰卧起坐和俯卧撑测试在 64.4%(Kappa=0.130;p=0.076)的情况下一致。男孩的引体向上(PHYSICAL BEST 与 FITNESSGRAM)在 83.3%(Kappa=0.599;p<0.001)的情况下一致。男孩的引体向上(PHYSICAL BEST 与 FITNESSGRAM)与改良引体向上(PHYSICAL BEST 与 FITNESSGRAM)之间的一致性为 47.2%(Kappa=0.071;p=0.533),而女孩的一致性为 44.5%(Kappa=0.102;p=0.120)。男孩的引体向上和改良引体向上(FITNESSGRAM)之间的一致性为 58.4%(Kappa=0.215;p=0.143),而女孩的一致性为 44.5%(Kappa=0.102;p=0.120)。
对于随时间进行的个体分析,以及对于不同人群之间通过标准率的比较,在使用力量和耐力的不同标准参考标准时,特别是在使用不同测试时,应谨慎行事。
