Identifying childhood movement profiles and comparing differences in mathematical skills between clusters : A latent profile analysis
2021
The aims of this study were; 1) to identify different movement profiles in sixth graders, and 2) to investigate if there are differences in their mathematical basic (BasicMath) and problem solving (ProbSol) skills between existing movement profiles. The sample included 461 (223 girls, 238 boys) students with a mean age of 11.27 +/- .32 years from southern and middle Finland. A latent profile analysis (LPA) revealed four movement profiles: "poor movers", "average movers", "skilled movers" and "expert movers". These profiles differed substantially in their motor competence (MC) and health-related fitness (HRF). A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) also revealed that "poor movers" and …
Combining Numerical Relational and Fundamental Motor Skills to Improve Preschoolers’ Early Numeracy : A Pilot Intervention Study
2022
The aim of this pilot study was to examine the immediate and long-term effects of an intervention program that aims to improve preschoolers' (Le but de cette étude pilote était d'examiner les effets immédiats et à long terme d'un programme d'intervention qui vise à améliorer les compétences précoces en numératie des enfants d'âge préscolaire (N = 36, M = 4.49 ans, SD = 0.35) en combinant l'apprentissage des compétences par la lecture d'histoires avec la pratique des habiletés motrices fondamentales. Le programme d'intervention a été piloté avec deux plans d'étude : un plan à mesures répétées intra-sujet avec 18 enfants (étude I) et un plan d'étude quasiexpérimental avec 18 enfants (étude II…
