本研究探討大學生是否有肌少症的現象。以大學運動管理系學生為受試者,共計295位,採用電子握力器測量握力以及手圍測量小腿圍。資料採用SPSS統計軟體進行資料分析,以描述性統計分析全體受試者個人基本資料。以t檢定(t-test)分析不同性別、不同年齡層大學生握力差異情形。以變異數分析(one-way ANOVA)不同年級大學生握力差異情形。研究結果發現:(一)四分之一大學生小腿圍未達正常,握力有5人未達正常。(二)男生最大握力平均高於女生,但整體握力整齊程度女生優於男生。(三)二年級最大握力優於一年級及四年級。(四)20歲以上受試者最大握力優於19歲以下受試者。結論:大學生使用手機時間過長,加上營養不均衡、對檢康管理不重視等因素,肌少症有年輕化的趨勢。男生會因重量訓練增加肌力而形成群體間男生在肌力表現上差距較大,女生因肌力訓練後在意肌肉線條過於發達,採取健康飲食,因此群體間肌力差距較小。一年級生可能忙於適應新環境、建立人際關係、壓力較大等,忽略運動健身或營養均衡重要。大四生因為準備踏入職場,面對畢業門檻,可能面臨證照、實習或專題等壓力,分身乏術而忽略健康管理。
This study discusses of sarcopenia in university students. Grip strength and calf circumference were measured using electronic grip strength and hand circumference. Data were analyzed using SPSS statistical software to analyze the individual data of all subjects in a descriptive manner. The t -test was used to analyze the differences in grip strength among university students of different genders and age groups. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze the differences in grip strength among college students of different grades. The results showed that: (1) One quarter of the university students did not have a normal calf circumference and five of them did not have a normal grip strength. (2) On average, the maximum grip strength of boys was higher than that of girls, but the overall neatness of the grip strength of girls was better than that of boys. (3) The maximum grip strength in grade 2 is better than that in grade 1 and grade 4. (4) The maximum grip strength of subjects over 20 years old was better than that of subjects under 19 years old. Conclusion: There is a tendency for undergraduates to use mobile phones for too long, the difference in muscle strength between boys and girls is smaller because girls care about overdeveloped muscle lines and adopt a healthy diet after muscle strength training. Grade 1 students may be too busy adapting to a new environment, establishing interpersonal relationships, or under stress to notice the importance of exercise and fitness or balanced nutrition. Grade 4 students may be under pressure from licensing, internships or projects as they prepare to enter the workforce and face graduation thresholds, thus neglecting health management.
