| Abstract | Functional and motor abilities of the adolescent population are preconditions for preserving and improving their psychophysical health, as well as for achieving successful results in physical education classes and sports trainings. The aim of this study was to examine differences in some motor and functional abilities of participants in the period of early adolescence. During September 2012, the examination included 178 male participants, 14-15 years of age (90 athletes and 88 non-athletes) from Valjevo. The sample of variables consisted of 9 motor abilities tests and four functional tests. Statistical was analyses were carried out using software Statistics for Windows, ver.6.0. The collected data were processed by basic methods of descriptive statistics, the Student's parametric t-test for small independent samples, and by a canonical disriminant analysis. The obtained findings showed that the subsample of athletes demonstrated a statistically significant difference, while the subsample of non-athletes manifested a higher level of explosive power, sprint speed, vital lung capacity, systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure. This is the result of several years of training. The results in this discriminant study offer a wide range of information, which can have practical application with p <.005 in defining functional-motor model values, offer higher quality plan and work schedule development in both physical education and teaching, as well as in the operationalization of transformational behavior of eight grade elementary schoolboys. |
