Abstract
[b]Aim of the work.[/b] The purpose of the thesis is to define relations between somatic build and motor ability of children and young people and evaluation of income obtained by their parents.[b]Material and methods. [/b]There have been examined 524 pupils aged from 8 to 16 attending the primary school and the junior high school in Jedlina-Zdrój. During gathering the empirical material the method of observation of somatic and motor growth level was used together with the following research tools: anthropometry and motor ability tests. Height, weight and three skin-fat folds have been measured in the children. Relative body mass index and lean body mass have been also calculated. Physical ability tests have been carried out as well: plate hand tapping, 10×5 m shuttle run, standing broad jump, sit-ups, 1kg medical ball throw and sit and forward reach as well as maximum anaerobic power has been calculated. A diagnostic poll was used as a method of analysing, the research tool was a poll questionnaire referring to family life quality. Evaluation of own income was one of the analysed partial subjective elements of life quality.[b]Results and conclusions.[/b] Evaluation of own income made by the surveyed parents differentiates all the analysed somatic features of the examined children from Jedlina-Zdrój, besides the sum of skin-fat folds in female groups. Children from families, which evaluate their income as the worst of all, feature the lowest somatic growth level, the ones from families evaluating their economic status as medium or high feature the highest somatic growth level. As regards motor components the similar relations were noted in case of the maximum anaerobic power at both sexes and locomotive speed in male groups. The average values of maximum anaerobic power increase as the evaluation of the family economic situation improves. Boys from families evaluating their income as the best of all feature the best developed running speed, the worst running speed is developed at boys which families evaluate their income as medium.
