영어초록
The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of jive participation, one
of dance sports, on the health-related fitness of elementary school girls. The
health-related fitness of an experimental group and a control group was checked
in the same way and same conditions. The experimental group learned jive, and
the control group didn't. Their muscular strength was measured by using a grip
strength test, and their muscular endurance was tested by using a sit-up test.
Their flexibility was measured by using a sit-and-reach test, and their
cardiorespiratory endurance was measured by using 1,200m long run and walking
tests. Their body composition was checked by measuring their body fat percent.
As a result of analyzing the collected data, the following findings were given:
First, there were no significant difference in improved muscular strength(grip
strength) between the experimental group that learned jive, one of dance sports,
for 12 weeks and the control group that didn't.
Second, the experimental group made progress in muscular endurance(sit-up),
but the control group made some progress as well. The experimental group's
change wasn't large enough, and the gap between the two was not statistically
significant.
Third, there were significant intergroup difference in flexibility, cardiorespiratory
endurance and body fat rate, which denoted that jive learning, one of dance
sports, had an impact on improving flexibility and cardiorespiratory endurance and
decreasing body fat rate.
