Abstract
The research examined the connection between the adoption of motoric skills from exercises on the floor and apparatus, athletics and sports games of the pupils of fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh grade of elementary school on one side and morphologic, motoric and some psychological variables on the other side. The exercises prescribed by the elementary school curriculum for physical education served as the index of adoption of motoric skills and were evaluated by marks from 1 to 5 with 9 levels of gradation. The morphological status of pupils was measured by ten variables, physical ability of pupils was measured by eight variables ('Eurofit' test battery), and the selected features of pupils were measured by three variables. The sample of tests comprised 1002 pupils. Based on the obtained results, it could be said that the basic hypothesis of the research, that there is a significant link between the adopted motoric skills from the exercises on the floor, on apparatus, athletics and sports games of the pupils of the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh grade of elementary school on one side and morphological, motoric and some psychological variables on the other side, is partly confirmed.
