Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate the mediating role of self-perceptual ability in the causal relationship between motor skills and physical activity and fitness of athlete and non-athlete trainers of boys and girls aged 10 to 15 years in District 5 of Tehran. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive correlation.
For this purpose, 108 athletes (3 days of exercise activity per week) and non-athlete were selected in terms of Morgan volume determination table.
The sampling method was done non-randomly. To evaluate the variables of the research, Marshall (PSDQ) questionnaire and physical activity questionnaire and perceptual skills growth were used. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data by partial least squares method with the help of SPSS statistical software at a significance level of α≤ 0.05.
The mean and standard deviation of age of subjects is 13/31± 1/87, the mean and standard deviation of height of subjects is 159/85± 13/26 and the mean and standard deviation of weight of subjects is 52/25±14/59.
The results of this study also showed that the effect of motor skills variable on self-perceptual ability (T value = 11/640 and ß = 0/690) was positive and significant, the effect of self-perceptual ability variable on fitness (T Value 28/628 and ß = 0/878) positive and significant and the effect of the self-perceptual ability variable on physical activity (T Value = 12.696 and ß = 0/643) is positive and significant. The coefficients of determining 0/476 and 0/771 and 0/414 indicates the fitting of the structural model at moderate. The results showed that the intermediate variable of self-perceptual ability in the relationship of motor skills with fitness (T value = 9/185 and ß =0/606 ) had a significant effect as well as the mediator variable of self-perceptual ability in the relationship of motor skills with physical activity (Value = 7/771 and ß = 0/444) have a significant effect. According to the results, it seems that by increasing the self-perceptual ability of educators, effective steps can be taken to strengthen and develop the motor skills and physical activity of educators.
