Children with better motor skills tend to develop more positive peer relationships. However, there is little information about the relationship between motor skills and the five sociometric status groups, as well as how much it interferes with self-perception of social status.
To analyze the as sociation of low motor skills with sociometric status and perceived social status in students aged 7 to 10 years.
Cross-sectional, descriptive study with convenience sampling. Parti cipated in the study children in public schools from Florianopolis, Brazil. Children with disabilities and those who changed schools during the school year were excluded. Motor skills were evaluated by the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-2), validated for this population. Movement skills were considered low when they were below the 15th percentile. Sociometric Status was assessed using the Subjective Scale of Social Status in the Classroom, according to the sociometric method, and the Perceived Social Status by the MacArthur Scale of Subjective Social Status, classifying chil dren into five groups. Multinominal logistic regression analysis was performed.
439 children participated (242 girls and 197 boys), with a median age of 8.94 ± 1.03. Participants classified as rejec ted, neglected, and controversial, regarding sociometric status, were 5.01, 2.40, and 2.86, respectively, more likely to present low motor skills when compared with the average group. Regarding perceived social status, there were no significant differences.
The difficulties found in children with low motor skills go beyond the motor domain, extending to social relationships.
运动技能较好的儿童往往发展出更积极的同伴关系。然而，关于运动技能与五种社会计量地位群体的关系，以及它对自我感知社会地位的影响程度，信息甚少。
分析运动技能较差与学生 7 至 10 岁时的社会计量地位和感知社会地位之间的关联。
这是一项横断面、描述性的便利抽样研究。参与者为来自巴西弗洛里亚诺波利斯公立学校的儿童。排除有残疾和在学年内转校的儿童。采用儿童运动评估量表（MABC-2）评估运动技能，该量表已针对该人群进行验证。当运动技能低于第 15 百分位时，即视为较低。社会计量地位采用课堂主观社会地位量表，根据社会计量法进行评估，感知社会地位采用麦克阿瑟主观社会地位量表，将儿童分为五个群体。采用多项逻辑回归分析。
共有 439 名儿童参与（242 名女孩和 197 名男孩），中位数年龄为 8.94±1.03 岁。在社会计量地位方面，被归类为被拒绝、被忽视和有争议的儿童分别为 5.01%、2.40%和 2.86%，与平均组相比，他们更有可能出现运动技能较差的情况。在感知社会地位方面，没有显著差异。
运动技能较差的儿童所面临的困难不仅限于运动领域，还延伸到社会关系。
