Abstract

The objective of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence (PMSC) for young Norwegian children, a scale that is aligned with skills assessed in the Test of Gross Motor Development- Third Edition. We used convenience sampling to recruit 396 Norwegian-speaking children (7–10-year-olds) who completed the PMSC. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) confirmed factorial validity for the proposed three-factor model of the PMSC, encompassing measures of self-perceived ball, locomotor, and active play competence. Internal item consistency coefficients of these sub-scales were acceptable, and subsequent measurement invariant analysis found a gender difference such that boys rated their competence higher than girls in running, jumping forward, hitting a ball (racket), kicking, throwing a ball and rope climbing, while girls rated themselves higher, compared to boys, in galloping and skating/blading. Furthermore, there was a slightly better model fit for boys than for girls. Several items were significantly related to children’s age, and the three-factor model exhibited differential age related factor mean differences across older and younger children. Overall, we found the PMSC to have acceptable psychometric properties for confident use in assessing perceived motor competence among 7–10-year-old Norwegian children, though we observed age and gender differences in children’s responses that warrant careful interpretation of results and further research investigation.
挪威幼儿感知运动技能能力图形量表的心理计量特性
本研究的目的是检验挪威幼儿感知运动技能能力图形量表(Pictorial Scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence,PMSC)的心理测量特性。我们采用方便取样的方法,招募了396名挪威语儿童(7-10岁),他们都完成了 "运动技能能力图示量表"。确认性因素分析(CFA)证实了所提出的PMSC三因素模型的因子有效性,该模型包括自我感觉球、运动和主动游戏能力的测量。这些子量表的内部项目一致性系数是可以接受的,随后的测量不变性分析发现了性别差异,即男孩在跑步、向前跳跃、击球(球拍)、踢球、扔球和爬绳方面的能力评价高于女孩,而女孩在奔跑和滑冰/滑板方面的能力评价高于男孩。此外,男孩的模型拟合度略高于女孩。有几个项目与儿童的年龄有明显的相关性,三因素模型在年龄较大和年龄较小的儿童中表现出不同的年龄相关因素均值差异。总体而言,我们发现 "运动能力知觉问卷 "具有可接受的心理测量特性,可用于评估7-10岁挪威儿童的运动能力知觉,但我们也观察到了儿童回答中存在的年龄和性别差异,这就需要对结果进行仔细的解释和进一步的研究调查。
