“…In the initial phases of motor development, children's MC involves the mastery of fundamental motor skills that are the foundations for the mastery of specialized motor skills. It has been reported that physical activity, 3,4 cardiorespiratory fitness, 5,6 physical fitness, 7 and perceived physical competence, 8,9 have positive effects and associations with MC, as well as an inverse association with weight status 10 in children and adolescents. This has provided emerging evidence to the theoretical model proposed by Stodden and colleagues.…”

a b s t r a c tObjectives: This study was aimed at developing a quantitative model to evaluate motor competence (MC) in children and adolescents, to be applicable in research, education, and clinical contexts. Design: Cross-sectional. Methods: A total of 584 children (boys n = 300) with ages between 6 and 14 years were assessed using nine well known quantitative motor tasks, divided into three major components (stability, locomotor and manipulative). Structural equation modelling through EQS 6.1 was used to find the best model for representing the structural and measurement validity of MC. Results: The final MC model was composed by three latent factors closely related with each other. Each factor was best represented by two of the initial three motor tasks chosen. The model was shown to give a very good overall fit ( 2 = 12.04, p = .061; NFI = .982; CFI = .991; RMSEA = .059). Conclusions: MC can be parsimoniously represented by six quantitative motor tasks, grouped into three interrelated factors. The developed model was shown to be robust when applied to different samples, demonstrating a good structural and measurement reliability. The use of a quantitative protocol with few, simple to administer and well known, motor tasks, is an important advantage of this model, since it can be used in several contexts with different objectives. We find it especially beneficial for physical educations teachers who have to regularly assess their students.

“…The role of motor competence in children's physical activity levels has been conceptualized in a theoretical model by Stodden et al (2008; recently revised by Robinson et al in 2015). Numerous studies have confirmed the proposed positive relationship between children's motor competence and their physical activity levels (e.g., Holfelder & Schott, 2014;Logan et al, 2014;Lubans, Morgan, Cliff, Barnett, & Okely, 2010). …”

Multilevel regression analyses were conducted to explore how children with different motor competence-based profiles might differ in their autonomous motivation for sports and global self-worth. Validated questionnaires were administered to 161 children (40% boys; age = 8.82 ± 0.66 years) to assess their perceived motor competence, global self-worth, and motivation for sports. Actual motor competence was measured with the Körperkoordinationstest für Kinder. Cluster analyses identified four motor competence-based profiles: two groups were characterized by corresponding levels of actual and perceived motor competence (i.e., low-low and high-high) and two groups were characterized by divergent levels of actual and perceived motor competence (i.e., high-low and low-high). Children in the low-low and high-low group displayed significantly lower levels of autonomous motivation for sports and lower levels of global self-worth than children in the lowhigh and high-high group. These findings emphasize that fostering children's perceived motor competence might be crucial to improve their motivation for sports and their global self-worth.Teachers and instructors involved in physical education and youth sports should thus focus on both actual and perceived motor competence.

“…O domínio das habilidades motoras durante toda a vida está associado à prática de atividade física regular. Contudo, a maior parte das crianças e dos adolescentes não têm praticado os níveis de atividade física recomendados (4) . A hipótese do presente estudo é que o repertório de prática de atividade física tem influência no desempenho motor durante a tarefa de arremesso.…”

Resumo: O arremesso, que é considerada uma das habilidades motoras manipulativas mais importante, é inerente à infância durante o brincar. O domínio de habilidades motoras durante toda a vida está associado aos níveis de prática de atividade física regular. O objetivo foi avaliar a influência da prática de atividade física no desempenho e estratégia de movimento de arremesso em crianças e adultos. Os sujeitos foram divididos em grupo 1 (idade média:12±1,16 anos) e grupo 2 (idade média:22±1,87 anos) e realizaram 10 tentativas de arremesso com força. Para análise de desempenho, foram tabulados os acertos ao alvo; para análise da estratégia do movimento, foi proposta uma categorização; a prática de atividade física foi avaliada por meio de questionário. Ambos os grupos foram classificados com habilidade "rica" e, para a medida de desempenho, o grupo 2 apresentou maior frequência de acertos. Com relação à prática de atividade física, o grupo 1 foi classificado como "moderadamente ativo" e o grupo 2 como "sedentário". Conclui-se que a fase de transição para o movimento especializado tenha sido determinante, independente da prática de atividade física. Palavras-chave: Habilidade motora, desenvolvimento, arremesso. Abstract:The throw, which is considered on of the most important manipulative motor skill, is inherent in childhood during play. The domain of motor skills at all life is associated with the levels of regular physical activity practice. The objective was to evaluate the influence of the practice of physical activity on the performance and strategy of throwing movement in children and adults. The subjects were divided in group 1 (mean age: 12 ± 1.16 years) and group 2 (mean age: 22 ± 1.87 years) and made 10 attempts of force throw. For performance analysis, the hits to the target were tabulated; to analyze the strategy of the movement, a categorization was proposed; the physical activity practice was evaluated through a questionnaire. Both groups were classified with "rich" ability and, for the measure of performance, group 2 presented the highest frequency of hits. Regarding the practice of physical activity, group 1 was classified as "moderately active" and group 2 as "sedentary". It is concluded that the transition phase to the specialized movement was determinant, independent of the practice of physical activity.
