387. Forward head posture in sports-involved childrenBoris Karasek, Miloš Kojić, Evelin Varga, Tijana Šćepanović, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Purpose: Forward head posture (FHP) is the most common cervical postural fault in the sagittal plane that can cause various issues and conditions. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of FHP among sports-involved children and to examine the differences in craniovertebral angle (CVA) with regard to gender, age, neck pain, and the sports in which they participate.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 154 sports-involved chil-dren (76 males and 78 females), aged 11–14, participating in various sports (basket-ball, football, volleyball, and athletics). After obtaining signed consent, photography of the sagittal view was performed in a standing position, which was then used to measure the CVA using the Web Plot Digitizer software. A questionnaire was used to gather data about gender, age, sports in which a participant is involved, presence of neck pain, and pain scale.Results: Among the 154 children, 37 (24.03%) exhibited FHP (15 males, 22 fema-les). The mean CVA for the entire sample was 51.30° ± 6.20°. Female participants had a significantly lower CVA (p = .021) compared to male participants. No significant differences were found with regard to age, presence of neck pain, or engagement in a specific sport.Conclusion: FHP is present in sports-involved children, with a higher prevalence among females

390. Evaluating basic motor competence in Italian children post-COVID-19 pandemic : iImplications for motor developmentDomenico Monacis, Dario Colella, Pierpaolo Limone, 2024, izvirni znanstveni članek Povzetek: Motor competence assessment represents one of the most important topics in the field of motor development and physical education. The present cross-sectional study aims to assess basic motor competence, self-perception and enjoyment during physical activity (PA) in a sample of normal weight, and overweight or obese children post-COVID-19 pandemic. The participants (N = 107, age = 8-9 years old) were recruited from an experimental project conducted in Lecce (Italy). The motor competence assess-ment was undertaken using MOBAK 3-4 protocol, and self-perception and enjoyment were evaluated with two validated questionnaires. A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was performed to assess the effect of gender and BMI on the variables considered. Despite the MANOVA results indicating no significant interaction effects between variables, a significant main effect was found for gender [F(10,93) = 2.353, p = .013, η² = 0,218] and BMI cutoff [F(10,93) = 2.351, p = .013, η² = 0,218]. Moreover, an independent t-test highlighted significant differences in catching, dribbling, balanc-ing and object movement according to gender (p < .05), and in balancing, rolling and self-movement according to BMI cutoff (p < .05). Self-efficacy differed significantly be-tween males and females, while no significant effect was found for enjoyment. Further studies should investigate the effect of BMI and factors related to physical activity on motor competence development.
