In 2008, a conceptual model explaining the role of motor competence (MC) on children’s physical activity (PA), health-related fitness, weight status and perceived MC was published by Stodden et al. The purpose of this review is to systematically compile mediation, longitudinal and experimental evidence in support of this model. Searches were undertaken for each pathway of interest using six relevant databases. ...

Tables 6, 7, 11 and 12 each include a header cell, near the top, stating the wording “Proportion of sig. analyses (without studies with > 4 comparisons)”. Table 6 also features a header cell at the bottom, stating “Proportion of sig total Locomotor/ Coordination /Stability analyses without studies with > 4 comparisons”.
Perceived motor competence (PMC) is a psychological construct that may be influenced by various environmental factors. This study aimed to analyze differences in PMC of children from four diverse countries. The sample was comprised of 231 Brazilian, 129 Australian, 140 Portuguese, and 114 American children, aged 5 – 8 years. The PMC was assessed using the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence fo...

Avaliar a validade facial, a consistência interna, a fiabilidade teste-reteste e a validade de conceito dos 12 itens de habilidades básicas da pictorial scale for perceived movement skill competence for young children (PMSC) em crianças portuguesas.
It is important to assess young children's perceived Fundamental Movement Skill (FMS) competence in order to examine the role of perceived FMS competence in motivation toward physical activity. Children's perceptions of motor competence may vary according to the culture/country of origin; therefore, it is also important to measure perceptions in different cultural contexts. The purpose was to assess the face va...
The purpose is to explore relationships among moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary behavior (SB), and actual gross motor competence (MC) and perceived motor competence (PMC) in young children. Data were collected in 101 children (M age = 4.9 ± 0.93 years). MVPA was measured with accelerometry. Gross MC was assessed with the Portuguese version of the Movement Assessment Battery for Children. ...
In 2008, Stodden and colleagues took a unique developmental approach toward addressing the potential role of motor competence in promoting positive or negative trajectories of physical activity, health-related fitness, and weight status. The conceptual model proposed synergistic relationships among physical activity, motor competence, perceived motor competence, health-related physical fit ness, and obesity wit...
