本研究之目的旨在瞭解我國國小學童體適能發展與身體自我概念之現況，並藉由健康體適能及身體自我概念量表檢測，以了解外籍配偶子女與一般學童之差異與相關；研究工具乃以教育部之健康體育護照與「兒童身體自我概念量表爲施測量表」。研究結果顯示新住民子女的健康體適能表現以BMI和仰臥起坐的健康體適能最佳，以八百公尺的健康體適能最差；而新住民子女的身體自我概念，對「肥胖」及「力量」的概念最明顯，對「耐力」的概念較不明顯。此外，新住民子女的性別在健康體適能方面之「立定跳遠」與「坐姿體前彎」、及在身體自我概念之「力量」與「耐力」皆有顯著差異。新住民子女之家庭社經地位在健康體適能表現與身體自我概念上皆無顯著差異。而新住民子女的健康體適能與身體自我概念間有顯著的相關。

The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship between health-related physical fitness of the new immigrant's children who attended elementary school in Taichung County and their self-concept. Based on the purpose, it had randomly chosen 196 students from 7 Elementary Schools in Taichung County, participated in this study. All subjects were divided into two groups according to the nationality of their parents: the new immigrant's children group and the general immigrant's children group. The study tools were "the health-related physical fitness test" and "the revision of children physical self-concept inventory". The gathered data was processed statistically with tools such as "descriptive statistics", "t-test", "one-way ANOVA", and "Pearson's product-moment test". The result of the study was concluded as follows: 1. In terms of the performance result of health-related physical fitness, the new immigrant's children got the highest scores on and "BMI" and "sit-ups", and the worst ones on "800-yd run-walk". 2. In terms of the performance result of self-concept, the new immigrant's children got the highest scores on "fatness" and "strength", and the worst ones on "endurance". 3. In terms of the performance result of health-related physical fitness, there were significant differences on their "standing broad jump" and "sit-and-reach" of new immigrant's children with different sex. In terms of the performance result of self-concept, there were significant differences on "strength" and "endurance" in self-concept of new immigrant's children with different sex. 4. There was no significant difference among new immigrant's children with different SES on their health-related physical fitness and self-concept. 5. There was a correlation between health-related physical fitness and self-concept of new immigrant's children; that was, the new immigrant's children who had better health-related physical fitness expressed better self-concept. Finally, the research based upon these conclusions and had put forward concrete suggestions which can be used for references for education agencies and further studies.
