Methods:Studies published from January 2009 to January 2019 were identified by literature searches in multiple international databases. Terms for“motor coordination”, “koordination”, “motor skill”, “movement skill”, “motor competence”, “motor proficiency”, “neuromuscular”, “gross motor”, “fundamental”, “locomotor skill”, “object control”, fitness, “coordinative exercise”, “coordination exercise”were used. Studies were included if they were conducted among school children and measured MC, MC‒related variables as primary or secondary outcomes, and published in a peer‒reviewed journal. After examination and careful review of the included studies, the characteristics of the studies(study design, participant, measure of MC, intervention, and results)were extracted and summarized. Also, the methodological quality of the randomized controlled trials(RCT)included was assessed. Results:A total of 13 studies(RCT:n=9, quasi‒experimental design:n=3, pre‒post design:n=1) met the inclusion criteria. All of the studies(n=13)were conducted using school‒based interventions. With the exception of one study, all other studies showed significant effects of the intervention. Conclusion:The present findings suggest that all eligible studies can improve MC in school children. However, some methodological limitations were also found. Thus, further high‒quality intervention studies will be necessary.","PeriodicalId":248487,"journal":{"name":"Japan journal of human growth and development research","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131509548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was conducted at an elementary school located in the city of Kurashiki within the Okayama Prefecture from April to September, 2013. A total of 131 participants(70 boys and 61 girls)with ages of 11‒12 participated in this study. We investigated the physical activity, habitual lifestyle, and physical fitness before, during, and after the summer vacation. A uniaxial accelerometer was used to measure the total steps and moderate‒to‒vigorous physical activity (MVPA)of the participants. Further, the habitual lifestyles were assessed using a questionnaire. Physical fitness was assessed using a 50‒m dash and 20‒m shuttle run. The total steps and MVPA during the summer vacation were significantly less than those before the summer vacation. The wake‒up time and bedtime of girls were considerably late during the summer vacation than those before and after the summer vacation. Further, the total amount of time spent on TV/video/ DVD, internet, and TV games during the summer vacation was significantly more than those before and after the summer vacation. The 50‒m dash measured before the summer vacation was significantly lower than after the summer vacation. In contrast, no differences can be observed with respect to the 20‒m shuttle run before and after the summer vacation. In conclusion, our study suggests that the physical activity is reduced and the habitual lifestyle is disturbed during the summer vacation. In addition, physical fitness is lowered or is stable between before and after summer vacation.","PeriodicalId":248487,"journal":{"name":"Japan journal of human growth and development research","volume":"211 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123266002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods : Subjects were 672 children at a public junior high school in Shizuoka . All investigations were carried out on control day and practice period in October 2014 . The sleep situation and subjective symptoms of fatigue were measured in this survey . Results : Subjects were early to bed and early to rise . There were also few shortage and issues of sleep . Additionally , they had few subjective symptoms of fatigue and Internet addiction tendency . Furthermore , as a result of having inspected the “ no media ” practice , the bed duration was significantly earlier and sleep time was also significantly longer in practice period . The subjective symptoms of fatigue in practice period were decreased . In this study , the sleep situations and subjective symptoms of fatigue by the difference of the challenge item in this practice were also analyzed . As a result , in the group which challenged the practice of “ no media ” , it was shown that the sleep situation was improved and tiredness was decreased .

Research participants were two hundred and eighty three children aged 3 . 0 to 6 . 5 ( 146 boys and 137 girls ) . They were given 4 coordination ability tests . As a result of this study , three things related to the developmental process of the orientation and differentiation abilities were found . First of all , phenomena that the means of each test result stagnated or declined temporarily and then rose remarkably were observed . This suggested that the development of orientation and differentiation abilities was not a linear process . Rather this process was similar to the phenomenon on the stage of acquisition and improvement in “ developmental process of motor learning ” . Secondly , it demonstrates that there were differences of developmental characteristics of the orientation and differentiation abilities between boys and girls . The results of the tests included throwing motion showed that these phenomena happened with boys six months earlier than girls . On the other hand , the result of the test included jumping motion showed this phenomenon happened with girls six months earlier than boys . Finally , we found that the means of each test result rose remarkably around 4 and a half years old . This is the same period defined as a critical developmental period , which is called “ developmental turning point at the age of 4 and a half years old ” . This research has revealed that the developmental characteristics of orientation and differentiation ability in early childhood should be understood from the dual points of both motor development and cognitive development .","PeriodicalId":248487,"journal":{"name":"Japan journal of human growth and development research","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114511449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
