Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺東大學 === 進修部暑期體育碩士班 === 106 === Purpose: This study investigated the health-related physical fitness (body mass index (BMI), muscle endurance, flexibility, muscular power, cardio-respiratory endurance) and course acceptance of students with mild intellectual disability after a rope-skipping intervention. Method: The participants were two students (Student A and Student B) with the Handbook for Mild intellectual disabled persons. The intervention was a rope-skipping course designed to be offered twice a week, each lasting 40 minutes, for 24 sessions over a period of 12 weeks. The single-subject A-B-A-B withdrawal design was adopted. The within-phase and between-phase stability and trends were evaluated using on visual analysis, and the trends and effects in each phase were tested using C-statistic. Course acceptance was evaluated based on learning sheets and interview data. Results: (1) Student B’s muscle endurance was significant, and Student A’s muscular power was significant; in both students, an improvement was observed in flexibility, muscle endurance, muscular power, and cardio-respiratory endurance, but no significant change in BMI was observed; (2) The intervention led to higher course acceptance. Conclusion: This study was that the rope-skipping intervention reached the intended goal of enhancing the health-related physical fitness and course acceptance in students with mild intellectual disability.
