Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 體育學系 === 93 === The purpose of this study was to explore the movement ability on an Aquatic exercise for the Cerebral Palsy (CP) including comparison of the changing for Adaptation aquatic Ability, Daily ability and Joint activity degree. In order to understand the situation of the program, the participants have 5 males and 8 females CP children. (The average age is 6.17±2.14 yrs, the average height 108.15±9.35cm, and the average weight 17.50±3.86 kg). The percentage of children’s attendance of this program is 78%. We continuously recorded and observed their attendances and the routine activity abilities. The duration of this program is 11 weeks, twice a week from March to June 2005. The data is analyzed in describing statistics for Adaptation aquatic ability and Daily ability. The joint activity degree were analyzed statistically with t-test (p<.05). The results are(1)Via 11 weeks Adaptation aquatic program, children could relaxed and floated with assistance and moved around by themselves in water.(2)Parents noticed the children had progressed in languages- expression, hand and leg grip strength, increasing movements and balance and coordinate movement after aquatic exercise. (3)The joint activity degree showed significant difference (p < .05) before and after aquatic exercise in left and right ankle dorsiflexion, left and right shoulder extension, left elbow flexion, left hip flexion, left and right knee flexion, and right ankle plantarflexion .
