Summary:碩士 === 臺北市立大學 === 體育學系 === 106 === The purpose of this study was to discuss the effects of the gross movement skills of kindergarten children with different genders and ages. The research instrument applied the Test of Gross Motor Development- Second Edition (TGMD-2). Participants of this study were 43 children, including 14 of five-years-old, 8 of four-years-old and 21 of three-years-old in private Kindergarten, New Taipei City. TGMD-2 locomotor movement skills include running, hopping, galloping, sliding, leaping, and horizontal jumping. The object control movement skills include striking a stationary ball, stationary dribble, kicking, catching, overhand throw, and underhand roll. The collected data was analyzed through independent t-test and analysis of covariance, with α=.05 significance level. The findings were as follows:(1) There was no significant difference between boys and girls in the locomotor movement skills. (2) There was no significant difference between boys and girls in the object control skills. (3) There was no significant difference between boys and girls in the gross motor development. (4) 5 years-old kindergarten children performed better than 3 years-old kindergarten children in the locomotor movement skills. (5) 5 years-old kindergarten children performed better than 3 and 4 years-old kindergarten children in the object control skills.
