摘要

The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of parental attitudes and knowledge toward exercise on the physical fitness of elementary school boys. One hundred forty-eight boys (aged 11.6±0.3 years) and their parents (father aged 41.8±4.3 years, mother aged 39.0±4.0 years) were recruited from the Chung-Shio elementary school of Banchay city. All boys underwent physical fitness test and their parents underwent the ”Attitudes toward Exercise and Know ledge of Exercise and Health Inventory, EXATI” in three weeks. The 115 questionnaires were validly returned (77.7%). Independent t-test was used to determine any difference in boys of active and inactive parents. One-way ANOVA was used to determine any difference in boys of different parents' exercise knowledge and attitudes. Data are presented as means±SE, and the level of significance was set at p＜.05 for all analyses. Results showed that: 1) Boys of active parents had higher one minute sit up (34.0±6.2 vs. 28.8±7.6), standing long jump (168.4±15.8 vs. 158.2±16.6 cm), and lower skinfold thickness (48.6±16.0 vs. 57.1±18.2 mm), mean blood pressure (67.3±7.4 vs. 70.4±7.9 mmHg) than boys of inactive parents (p＜.05). 2) Boys of different parents' exercise know ledge had significant difference in rest heart rate (median＜low), skinfold thickness (high＜low), sit up (high＞low), standing long jump (high＞low), 800 meters run-walk test (high＜low). 3) Boys of different parents' exercise attitudes had significant difference in skinfold thickness (high, median＜low), one minute s it up (high＞low), and sit and reach test (high＞low). These findings indicate that parents' knowledge and attitudes toward exercise provides important influence on their child's physical fitness such as cardiovascular endurance, strength, obesity, blood pressure, and flexibility.
