The Motor Function Evaluation of College Students’ Physical Activity State From the Perspective of Educational Psychology

Abstract

College students have taken part in less and less physical activities as a result of the common static lifestyle in recent years, lowering the level of motor function. This phenomenon has been a source of concern for schools and the government, and it is necessary to take corresponding measures to change it. The general motor function level of Chinese college students is explored first based on artificial intelligence and the human–computer interaction technology. The Physical Activity Questionnaire for College Students is compiled by referring to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and 561 students from colleges in Tianjin province are assessed based on the functional movement screen (FMS). Spearman correlation and multivariate regression analysis (MRA) are used to analyze the correlation between the motor function and physical activity status. In terms of lunch break frequency, the proportion of students having one to two lunch breaks in a week is the highest (54.15%); in terms of the frequency of doing moderate physical exercise, the proportion of students doing moderate physical exercise for 1–2 days in a week is the highest (50.61%); in terms of the frequency of doing heavy physical exercise, the proportion of students doing heavy exercise for 1–2 days in a week is the highest (47.26%); in terms of the sedentary time, the proportion of students with sedentary time more than 5 h in a day is the highest (40.61%); in terms of eye use time, the proportion of students with 8–10 h eye use time in a day is the highest (43.61%). Besides, in terms of the FMS score, the proportion of students with 13–15 FMS is the highest (48.46%). The hurdle step (21.03%), straight knee lift (22.52%), and body rotation stability (18.31%) have a relatively low proportion among the three-point items. There is a positive correlation between motor function score with the time of moderate exercise and the time of heavy exercise (P < 0.05). College students generally have insufficient rest time, long eye use time, and long sitting time, leading to a low level of motor function, manifested by an asymmetry between both sides of the body and poor trunk stability. It is recommended to add hurdling steps, straight knee lifts, and body rotation stability tests to college physical education courses.

The art of forming habits: applying habit theory in changing physical activity behaviour

“…Studies showed that overall, the physical activity level among university students was considered satisfactory, although the percentage was slightly lower in female students (Fagaras et al 2015;Rajappan et al 2015). In recent years, college students have participated in fewer physical activities due to the typical inactive lifestyle (Ge et al 2021). Transition to college, portrayed by changes in autonomy, time constraints and financial limitations, are the barriers.…”

Consequences of risk factors related to prolonged computer use on musculaokeletal pain in public unversity students: A case study

“…On the low back, three activities are not statistically significant, including class attendance (p = 0.062), sports activity (p = 0.319) and social activity on campus (p = 0.183). However, according to the study by Ge et al, [39] exercise time a day for college students significantly affects the body.…”

Bibliometric Analysis of Technology Trends in Education: Analysis from 2018 to 2022

“…Technology allows personalization of learning so that each student can learn according to their own pace and learning style (Aeni & Yusupa, 2018;Daniel & Kamioka, 2017;. This can increase student understanding and engagement (Bajrami & Ismaili, 2016;Daryanes et al, 2023;Ge et al, 2021). As is known, that with the rapid development and also changes in technology in the current era of globalization have had a significant impact and influence on almost the entire life including the world of education (Astuti et al, 2021;Korucu & Alkan, 2018;Kounlaxay et al, 2021;Lestari, 2015).…”
