本研究目的欲瞭解臺灣學生游泳能力與規律運動習慣之相關性,亦即依現行的五級游泳能力指標進行比較,能力級別愈高的學生,其具有規律運動習慣的比例是否愈高?以「108學年度各級學校學生運動參與情形調查」的27,499筆資料,採次級資料分析法進行分析。研究結果發現:一、將近9成的人有學過游泳,國小有44.1%、國中有48.7%、高中有55.3%、大學有62.5%的學生,游泳能力達到第三級以上。二、透過交叉分析,有學過游泳者其規律運動比例較高,有規律運動學生之游泳能力級別,亦高於無規律運動者。三、透過邏輯斯迴歸發現,游泳能力級別愈高的學生,更傾向於具有規律運動習慣。本研究結論得知學生規律運動習慣與其游泳能力級別具有高度相關,這意味著游泳能力級別高的學生比起級別低的學生具備更高比例的規律運動習慣,此結果可連結運動自我效能,持續探討其相關性。體育政策面則可構思持續培養學生的游泳能力,並在各級學校中建立完善提升游泳能力級別的機制。此外,建議未來亦可以制定各種運動的客觀能力測試指標,並與規律運動習慣交叉研究,挖掘更多實證數據。
The purpose of this study was to understand the correlation between swimming ability and regular exercise habits among students in Taiwan. Current five-level swimming ability indicators were included in the analysis to investigate whether the ability level of students is directly and positively associated with the proportion of regular exercise habits. This paper used secondary data analysis to analyze 27,499 samples retrieved from the 2019 Students Participation in All Levels of Education. The results showed that: 1. Nearly 90% of students have learned swimming, 44.1% in elementary schools, 48.7% in junior high schools, 55.3% in senior high schools, and 62.5% in colleges, with swimming ability above three. 2. Cross-analysis indicates that the proportion of regular exercise is higher for those who have learned to swim, and the level of swimming ability of students who have regular exercise habits is also higher than that of irregular exercisers. 3. The result of logistic regression revealed that students with higher swimming ability levels are more inclined to have regular exercise habits. We conclude that students' regular exercise habits are highly correlated with their swimming ability levels, which means that students with high swimming ability levels have a higher proportion of regular exercise habits than students with lower levels. This result can be linked to exercise self-efficacy and continue to explore its correlation. It is suggested that sports policy can continuously cultivate students' swimming ability and establish a sound mechanism to improve the swimming ability level in schools at all levels. In addition, developing objective ability test indicators for various sports is strongly encouraged so that further research will be able to uncover more empirical findings regarding regular exercise habits in different sports.
