EVALUATION OF PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT OF JUNIOR SCHOOLCHILDREN BY THE METHOD OF INDICES

Summary/Abstract: The younger school age is characterized by gradual increase of physical qualities, improvement of anthropometric indicators, and consequently a change in the physical development of students. Therefore, the purpose of the article was to study and evaluation the level of physical development of pupils of the second and third grades. The physical development of junior schoolchildren evaluated by anthropometric indices: the power index, the vital index, the weight-growth index, the Pignier index, the Erisman index, the Skibinska index and the hypoxia index. The results of our study indicate that with the age of both boys and girls, an increase in the average values of the above indicators was recorded. However, in boys who study in the third grade, the increase in power and weight-growth indices is more pronounced than in girls of the same age. The average value of the weight-growth index, the Pignier index, the Erisman index, the Skibinska index and the index of hypoxia are likely improved among the third-grade pupils compared to the second grade schoolchildren, regardless of gender.
