Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An analysis of the annual changes in BMI in junior high and high school students over a three-year period at a special needs school for the intellectually challenged was conducted to empirically investigate the effects of physical education and health instruction. The annual BMI changes among students attending the school at which the program was implemented were compared between the pre-implementation period (2001-2003) and the implementation period (2012-2014). The analysis was performed on students, who were divided into four-year groups‐from year one of junior high school through year one of high school, for both years when the surveys began (2001 and 2012). The results of two way ANOVAs (program:between factor×transition of school year:within factor) showed a significant interaction effect when analyzing the data for the junior high school year two and year three groups in comparison with annual BMI changes in the pre-implementation period as well as the implementation period.
