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. ...
In 2008, a conceptual model explaining the role of motor competence (MC) in children’s physical activity (PA), weight status, perceived MC and health-related fitness was published. Objective: The purpose of the current review was to systematically compile mediation, longitudinal and experimental evidence in support of this conceptual model. Methods: This systematic review (registered with PROSPERO on 28 April 2...
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”.
The present study aimed at examining differences in motor competence (MC) in children aged 6 to 9 years old in northern, central, and southern European regions using the Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder (KTK). The secondary aim of the study was to examine interactions between region and children's age, sex and weight status (determined as healthy weight or overweight/obese). Data was pooled from independent s...
The present study examined differences in 5–9-year-old children’s motor competence (MC) across Northern-, Central-, and Southern European countries using the Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder (KTK). A secondary aim was to examine whether the cross-cultural differences in MC accumulate in the interaction with children’s age group and body weight status determined as being normal or overweight. Methods: Data was...
