【 摘 要 】

Forty-one female Ss, aged 10-13, volunteered to undergo underwaterweighing and to perform a maximal treadmill exercise test (T ).Forty Ss also completed a maximal bicycle ergometer test (T 9. Comparisonof physical characteristics (ht , wt, % fat, LBW) behreen agegroups, as well as peak cardiorespiratory responses to the treadmillexercise (Lemin , ml-kg -min , ml.kgLBV -cmin , HR, V , time,RER) was done. A one-way ANOVA was used to determine the sig betweenage groups and a post-hoc test showed where the sig occurred.Sig diff (P6.05) in ht was found between 10 and 12 yr old Ss and 10and 13 yr Sld Ss; in wt between 10 and 13 yr old Ss and 11 and 13 yrold Ss; in-4BW between 10 and 13 yr old Ss and 11 and 13 yr old Ss.Peak L;;min differed (P~05) between 10 and 13 yr old Ss and 11 and13 yr old Ss. Peak VE Gas found to differ sig (Pd.05) between 10 and13 yr old Ss. No other variable differed (Ex 057 between ages.Eighteen of these Ss volunteered to perform a retest (T2), 9 on thetreadmill, 9 on the bicycle ergometer. A Pearson Product Moment rwas employed to covare each varaible for T1 and T2. Siglr (P<.051were seeglin Ll~in for treadmill exercise and in L-min , miekg- omin ,ml;;kgLBIV smin and VE for bicycle ergometry. Dependent ;;t;;l tests -showed no sig diff (b.05) in mean values between TI and T;; in mlakg lamin-;;and HR for peak treahill exercise. For bicycle exerciseY2no sig diff(Px05) was observed in V and performance time. It was concluded thatdyfficulty in the attainmgnt of maximal exercise in children due to alack of motivation to reach that level of effort makes the reliabilityand reproducibility of peak cardiorespiratory response questionable.
