BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore physical literacy (PL) using the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy, second edition (CAPL-2), adapt it to the Spanish context and provide evidence of its validity for use in Spanish children aged 8-12.
A total of 280 students (150 girls, mean age 10.5±0.9 years) from Extremadura (Spain) completed the CAPL-2. Means and SDs were used to present CAPL-2 scores according to age and sex, as well as frequencies to place participants at different PL levels. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was conducted to establish the best model fit for the data.
The median PL of Spanish children was progressing, and girls had a lower PL than boys for all ages except 12 years. The results supported a four-domain model for the CAPL-2 Spanish version and reported good fit indices after CFA (χ per df ratio=1.118; P (χ)=0.256; root mean square error of approximation=0.021; comparative fit index=0.987; Tuker-Lewis index=0.991; normed fit index=0.895).
The CAPL-2 model is a valid and reliable instrument for Spanish children aged 8-12. It represents the first tool that assesses PL in Spanish children, covering the domains of motivation and confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding, and daily behaviour. It may be relevant for all professionals related to physical activity, education and the health field.
背景/目的：本研究旨在使用《加拿大身体素养评估第二版》（CAPL - 2）探索身体素养（PL），使其适用于西班牙的情况，并为其在8至12岁西班牙儿童中的有效性提供证据。
来自西班牙埃斯特雷马杜拉的280名学生（150名女孩，平均年龄10.5±0.9岁）完成了CAPL - 2测试。使用均值和标准差按年龄和性别呈现CAPL - 2分数，并使用频率将参与者置于不同的身体素养水平。进行验证性因素分析（CFA）以建立最适合数据的模型。
西班牙儿童的身体素养中位数呈上升趋势，除12岁外，各年龄段女孩的身体素养均低于男孩。结果支持CAPL - 2西班牙语版本的四领域模型，CFA后报告了良好的拟合指数（卡方自由度比=1.118；P（卡方）=0.256；近似均方根误差=0.021；比较拟合指数=0.987；图克尔 - 刘易斯指数=0.991；规范拟合指数=0.895）。
CAPL - 2模型是适用于8至12岁西班牙儿童的有效且可靠的工具。它是评估西班牙儿童身体素养的首个工具，涵盖动机与信心、身体能力、知识与理解以及日常行为等领域。它可能与所有与体育活动、教育和健康领域相关的专业人员有关。
