The Influence of Family Factors on Children's Fundamental Movement Skills
Objective:To systematically review the family factors influencing children's fundamental movement skills and provide a theoretical basis for the design of family-centered intervention studies.Methods:Chinese and English literature published in six databases,PubMed,Web of Science(WOS),EBSCO,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform,and China Science and Technology Journal Database,before June 20,2024,were searched,and the results were collated and analyzed using semi-quantitative analysis.Results:The 27 papers included in this study were published between 2007 and 2024 and addressed the relationship between family factors and fundamental movement skills.The number of subjects included in the studies ranged from 76 to 4001 and involved 14 countries,including China,the United States,and Australia.Through systematic sorting,family factors were divided into two secondary dimensions,process factors and structural factors,and five tertiary themes:parental concepts,parental behaviors,family socioeconomic status,family structure,and parental characteristics,were analyzed and discussed.Among the structural factors,family socioeconomic status was positively correlated with fundamental movement skills;the number of children was positively correlated with locomotor skills and object control skills.Among the process factors,no clear correlations were found between parental perceptions and parental behavioral factors and children's fundamental movement skills.Conclusion:There is a strong association between family socioeconomic status and children's fundamental movement skills,but the mechanism of action is unclear.Compared with one-child families,children in multi-child families have better performance in fundamental movement skills levels.Parental perceptual factors,such as attitudes toward physical activity,and parental behavioral factors,such as parent-child interaction,may be associated with children's fundamental movement skills,but the relationship between them has not been established in existing research.Recommendations:Future research should strengthen the in-depth investigation of the role of parental perceptions,parental behavior,and family structure factors;family-based fundamental movement skills interventions should be designed with due attention to the influence of factors such as socioeconomic status and family structure.
