| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 體育研究所 === 88 === The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a ten-week "students'' physical fitness passport" intervention on the exercise behavior, exercise attitude, exercise knowledge and the physical fitness of junior high school students. The physical fitness items include body mass index (BMI), flexibility (sit and reach), leg power (standing long jump), muscle endurance (one-minute sit up), cardiorespiratory endurance (800 or 1600 meter run and walk for female or male students). One school has participated in the physical fitness passport project in the academic year of 1999 and the other school hasn''t. In each of the two schools, three classes were chosen among the seventh and eighth grades with students totaling 450 and averaging 13.5 years of age. The students of both schools still attend the regular physical education classes. The students'' physical fitness passport intervention is a physical fitness enhancement project combining physical education with school administration and social resources. Intervention variables include physical fitness education activities, student'' physical fitness passport, promotion by means of mass media, test and evaluation of physical fitness, participation medals of physical exercise, and social support. After the ten-week physical fitness passport intervention, the result was evaluated through questionnaires and the pretest and posttest of students'' physical fitness testing. By using X2 and One-Way ANCOVA, the results and differences in the variables of two groups as follow:
(1) After the intervention, there is no change in students'' exercise behavior (P>.05) .
(2) After the intervention, there is an significant enhancement in the exercise attitude of the students (P<.05).
(3) After the intervention, there is an significant enhancement in the exercise knowledge of the students (P<.05).
(4) The BMI of female students who haven''t participated in the intervention is significantly from those who have (P<.05). However, there is no obvious difference in other items (P>.05). There is no difference between the two groups of male students in BMI (P>.05). The one-minute sit-ups and sit and reach of the intervention students are superior to those who haven''t (P<.05). However, the standing long jump and 1600m running of the unintervention students are better than those who have (P<.05).
The ten-week "students'' physical fitness passport" intervention significantly enhances the exercise attitude and knowledge of junior high school students; however, there is no consistent effect on their exercise behavior and physical fitness.
