目的:这项研究的目的是调查参加足球训练的智障儿童与久坐的同龄人相比的姿势平衡。
方法:两组年龄在8-10岁的智障男孩参加了这项研究:一个足球组(n=12)和一个久坐组(n=12)。在4种不同的条件下使用力平台评估姿势平衡:睁眼,闭上了眼睛,在坚固和泡沫表面。定时和去测试,10米步行测试,并进行了四方阶跃测试。
结果:与久坐组相比,足球组的压力中心值显着降低(P<0.05),在坚固和泡沫表面上,但只有在睁开眼睛的情况下。他们在计时上升和前进测试中明显更快(P<0.05),10米步行测试,与久坐的同龄人相比,四方台阶测试。然而,两组在“定时起立”和“定时起立”和“定时起立”测试的坐起立阶段和轮流起立阶段之间没有显着差异。
结论:足球参与可能对智障男孩的姿势平衡产生积极影响。这些发现可能对制定运动计划以改善该人群的姿势平衡并降低跌倒风险具有启示意义。
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate the postural balance in children with intellectual disabilities who participate in soccer training compared with their sedentary peers.
METHODS: Two groups of boys with intellectual disabilities aged 8-10 years participated in this study: a soccer group (n = 12) and a sedentary group (n = 12). Postural balance was assessed using a force platform under 4 different conditions: open eyes, and closed eyes, on firm and foam surfaces. The Timed Up and Go Test, 10-m Walking Test, and Four-Square Step Test were also conducted.
RESULTS: The soccer group had significantly lower (P < .05) center of pressure values compared with the sedentary group, on both firm and foam surfaces, but only under the open eyes condition. They were significantly faster (P < .05) in the Timed Up and Go Test, 10-m Walking Test, and Four-Square Step Test compared with their sedentary peers. However, there were no significant differences between the 2 groups on the sit-to-stand and turn-to-sit phases of the Timed Up and Go Test.
CONCLUSIONS: Soccer participation may have a positive effect on postural balance in boys with intellectual disabilities. These findings may have implications for the development of exercise programs to improve postural balance and reduce the risk of falls in this population.
