小学生における立ち幅跳びの観察評価の妥当性

抄録

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of observational evaluation for standing long jumps. We examined the relationship between the results of such observation/evaluation and biomechanical analysis, involving 233 first- to sixth-grade male and female elementary school students. A total of 9 teaching staff members, graduate students, and undergraduate students specializing in health and physical education evaluated both movements by observation. Their jumping movements were observed and evaluated to compare the results between this and motion analysis. On examining data related to standing long jumps, corresponding to observation/evaluation items, the results, particularly overall impressions and partial observation results, were consistent with motor factors identified through biomechanical analysis, supporting the validity of observational evaluation standing long jumps to evaluate the quality of their movements. On the other hand, as an inconsistency between jumping movements, corresponding to partial observation point: <swinging the arms forward at an appropriate time>, and these factors was also revealed, it may be necessary to consider observation and assessment points that are more closely associated with motor skills.
