Experimental Study on the Effect of Sports Games on Physical Fitness in Children Aged 4-5 Years
Abstrct
The research aimed to evaluate the impact of sports games on the physical fitness of children aged 4-5 years through an experimental study. Data were collected from 54 children, divided into experimental and control groups, over a 12-week period with a one-hour play session per week. The SPSS 17.0 frequency analysis method was used to analyse the data and compare results betweex`n the test and reference groups to assess the effectiveness of the gameplay curriculum on children's physical development. The independent sample T-test findings indicated that the effect of sports games on children's height and weight was insignificant in both pre- and post-tests, suggesting minimal influence on body shape among 4-5-year-olds. However, the effects on physical fitness components, particularly speed, coordination, and flexibility, were significant, demonstrating considerable improvements in these areas. Post-testing results further revealed that sports games significantly enhanced upper and lower limb strength, flexibility, power, and jumping ability in the experimental group. The study, incorporating a conceptual model, presents pioneering findings for children aged 4-5 years, providing valuable insights for policymakers and organizations promoting sports games, and emphasizing the importance of integrating such activities to foster young children's engagement and physical development.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
