Summary:碩士 === 育達科技大學 === 資訊管理所 === 107 === Most firefighters used to improve their physical fitness without proper training methods, so they often exerted their strength with wrong postures or their physical fitness could not support them for the whole process of firefighting, resulting in physical injury or failed tasks. Currently as physical exercise becomes a popular trend, firefighters should also exercise their physical fitness in a proper way to complete different kinds of firefighting and rescue with sufficient physical strength. The National Fire Agency has a clear training standard for the physical fitness of firefighters, including firefighters' routine training and annual training, but such standard has been in practice for years without revision over time. It remains questionable whether firefighters trained under this standard can tackle the arduous and dangerous work. This study mainly explores the impact of tactical physical fitness on the performance of firefighters of Miaoli County. Firstly, by referring to relevant literature and applying the modified Delphi method, this study establishes the influencing factors for firefighters' tactical physical fitness and finds the items of tactical physical fitness training: muscle strength, muscle endurance and cardiopulmonary training. With such items, a hierarchical structure is established and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to obtain the impact of these three dimensions on the tactical physical fitness of firefighters of Miaoli County. Finally, a weighting system is established. Unlike other types of work, the demand for the tactical physical fitness of firefighters varies from one case to another. The final conclusion of this study is that the three training items for tactical physical fitness are indispensable. It is suggested that the researcher can increase the changes caused by various tactical physical fitness of firefighting work, understand the correlation of various firefighting work on tactical physical fitness, and enable follow-up firefighters to develop training and join tactical physical fitness, and train better firefighters.
