This research studied the health-related physical fitness status of boys and girls in Grades 5 and 6 in a rural school district in East Texas in an examination of possible age, ethnic, and gender differences. A three-way multivariate analysis of variance was conducted with gender, ethnicity, and age as the independent variables and nine physical measurements as the dependent variables. Height was the most important discriminating physical measurement, with girls significantly taller than boys at ages 10 and 11 and with boys significantly taller than girls at age 13. Canonical discriminant function separated black children from both Caucasian and Hispanic children in height, weight, mile run, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure.
本研究调查了得克萨斯州东部一个农村学区五、六年级男女生与健康相关的身体素质状况，以检验可能存在的年龄、种族和性别差异。以性别、种族和年龄为自变量，九项身体测量指标为因变量，进行了三因素多变量方差分析。身高是最重要的区分性身体测量指标，10岁和11岁时女孩显著高于男孩，13岁时男孩显著高于女孩。典型判别函数在身高、体重、一英里跑、收缩压和舒张压方面将黑人儿童与白人和西班牙裔儿童区分开来。
