育現場への測定と評価支援による運動能力評価基準値の作成－幼児用握力計による基準値の提示とともに－

This study aimed to establish standards on the motor ability for children by supports for childcare facilities. Among a total of 1,930 children aged 3-6 years, a sample of 1,863 children aged 4-6 years was used to establish the standards on motor ability. Seven motor ability tests of grip strength, standing long jump, softball throw for distance, 25-m dash, side steps, timed dipping, and sit and reach were selected in this study. The standards on the motor ability for children (SMAC2016) were established in accordance with the data distribution and by eliminating outliers in the sample. The SMAC2016 includes the standards of grip strength using a hand dynamometer for preschool children and will be available for evaluating the motor abilities in the future as well.
