Santrauka:
Baigiamajame profesinio bakalauro darbe nagrinėjamas džiazo šokių poveikis šokančių merginų nuo 18 iki 25 metų pusiausvyrai, liemens stabilumui ir rankos motoriniam greičiu. Tyrimo metodai: testavimas (pusiausvyros vertinimas su “Sigma Balance” balansuojamaja pusiausvyros platforma, liemens stabilumo vertinimas, naudojant Kraus – Weber ir ITO testus, rankos motorinio greičio vertinimas, naudojant Tepingo testą), matematinė statistinė analizė ir grupių palyginimas. Tyrime dalyvavo 30 merginų nuo 18 iki 25 metų, kurios buvo suskirstytos į tris grupes: džiazo šokius 1-2 metus šokančių merginų grupę (n=10); džiazo šokius 3-4 metus šokančių merginų grupę (n=10); kontrolinę džiazo šokių nešokančių merginų grupę (n=10). Tyrimas buvo atliktas vieną kartą ir buvo nustatyta, kad džiazo šokiai lavina merginų pusiausvyrą, liemens stabilumą ir rankos motorinį greitį.
Description:
Martyna Beinarytė. A study of balance, core stability and hand motor speed of jazz dancing women aged between 18 and 25. Thesis supervisor asist. L. Rutkauskienė; University of Applied Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Rehabilitation – Kaunas, 2018.
Aim of the study: To evaluate the impact of jazz dances for balance, core stability and hand motor speed of dancing women aged between 18 and 25.
The study participants: 30 women aged between 18 and 25 took part in the study. All of the participants were divided into three groups:
1. Women, dancing jazz dances from 1 to 2 years, aged between 18 and 25;
2. Women, dancing jazz dances from 3 to 4 years, aged between 18 and 25;
3. Control group, that consists of non- dancing women.
Study methods: 1. Scientific literature analysis. 2. Balance evaluation using “Sigma Balance“ balancing platform. 3.Core stability evaluation using Kraus – Weber and ITO tests. 4. Hand motor speed evaluation using Tapping test. 5. Mathematical statistical analysis. 6. Group comparison.
Results: After balance evaluation with the “Sigma Balance” platform, the averages of all three groups were not statistically significant, though the best results were in 1 - 2 years jazz dances dancing women group. After core extensors evaluation, the averages of all three groups were statistically significant (p < 0,05) which shows that the results of ITO test of 3-4 years jazz dances dancing women group were better than the results of other groups. After core flexors evaluation, the averages of all three groups were not statistically significant, though the best results were in 3 - 4 years jazz dances dancing women group. After hand motor speed evaluation using Tapping test, the averages of all three groups were statistically significant (p<0,05), which shows that the results of Tapping test of 3-4 years jazz dances dancing women group were better than the results of groups.
Conclusions:
1. Women, who dance from 1 to 2 years, have a better balance than women, who dance from 3 to 4 years, but women, who dance from 3 to 4 years, have a better return to the starting position speed. Women, who dance longer, have a better core muscle endurance and better hand motor speed than women dancing from 1 to 2 years.
2. Non-dancing woman's balance, core stability and hand motor speed are good.
3. Women who dance jazz dances, have better results of balance, core stability and hand motor speed than ones, who are non-dancers.
