as appropriate to each individuals environment, physical literacy can be described as …. (Whitehead, 2010)
the motivation, confidence, physical competence, knowledge and understanding to maintain physical activity throughout the life course
what is meant by monism (the foundations of physical literacy)
moves away from a dualistic approach = i.e that physical activity is only good for physical wellbeing
what does physical literacy encompass (the foundations of physical literacy)
encompasses doing, interpreting, responding and understanding
what is meant by holistic framework (the foundations of physical literacy)
enables inclusion of human cognition and emotion and influence on physical activity and vice verca
what does physical literacy signals an interplay with our surroundings link to
culture and society are influenctual
what is meant by physical literacy has non-exclusive connotations
indicating that everyone can achieve physical literacy, it doesn’t matter is you are old, young or if you have a disability
increased levels of ability and perceived ability in children lead to what (Cairney, 2019)
increased physical activity
what are the three domains of physical literacy
- physical capacity domain
- affective domain
- cognitive domain
physical literacy predicts the what ……. behaviours of youth
physical literacy predicts the physical activity and sedentary behaviours of youth
a longitudinal study assessed physical literacy by measuring what
- physical competence
- self perceived competence
- pleasure and preference for physical activity
a longitudinal study assessed physical activity by measuring what
- engagement in physical activity
- time spent in sedentary behaviour
physical competency is difficult to define, but it can be said proficiency in fundamental ….
proficiency in fundamental motor skills including locomotor and object control skills
physical competency is difficult to define, but it can be said the degree of skilled performance …..
in a wide range of motor tasks as well as the movement coordination and control underlying a particular outcome
physical competency is difficult to define, but it can be said a persons movement ….
a persons movement coordination quality when performing different motor skills, ranging on a continuum from gross to fine motor skills
what factors influence motor competence
age, sex and training
how is balance affected by age and sex
balance increases as age does
effect of sex generally depends on age (<10 years, girls balance better than boys)
how is locomotion affected by sex
girls develop advanced locomotor skills earlier
how is object control affected by sex
most studies show boys develop object control skills earlier than girls
what is self perceived perception
a persons perception of his or her motor competence
research suggests what about sex and perceiving physical competency
research suggests boys and girls perceive physical competence differently
who play an influential role in children’s development of self perception
parents, teachers, caregivers and coaches
what effect does anthropometry have of children’s self perception
have been shown to have significantly lower self perceptions of physical competence
what is the quote from Henry Ford about self perception
whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, your right
Logan et al (2015) suggested that there is some evidence about what in the relationship of physical activity and motor competence
some evidence that the relationship strengthens with age
