    The Examination of Postural Variables in Adolescents Who Are Athletes and Non-Athletes
    (Int Journal Applied Exercise Physiology, 2020) Esen, H. Tolga; Arslan, Fatma
    Introduction:The regular posture for children and young people is very important and environmental and genetic factors are among the factors that determine and direct posture. Aim:This research was conducted to determine whether there was a postural difference between adolescents athletes and non-athletes children. Method:A total of 68 adolescent children who attended the study in primary education institutions and whose average age was 13.43 +/- 0.94 participated. Athlete and non-athlete children were included in the study and the groups were respectively: Badminton (n=14), Boxing (n=12), Judo (n=14), Taekwondo(n=13)andnon-athletes (n=15). Postural analysis of the students was made through the Body Analysis Kapture (B.A.K.) program, which allows measuring body segments from anterior, frontal and posterior. For postural analysis, each participant was photographed with a digital camera on the lateral, anterior, and posterior planes (3 pcs) and transferred to the computer. In the analysis of the data, was used SPSS 24 package program. The normal distribution of the data was determined by the Shapiro Wilk test and the Kruskal Wallis test was used from the nonparametric tests. Significance level was taken as p<0.005. Results: A statistically significant difference was found in the shoulder symmetry between the non-athlete group and the taekwondo branch athletes (p<0,005); Pelvic symmetry values were found to be different between non-athletes and those in boxing, judo, taekwondo and badminton branches according to the anterior and lateral plan(p<0,005). While there was a significant difference in the posterior plan shoulder symmetry values between the non-athletesonly in the taekwondo branch,There were differences between the non-athletes and the three branches (taekwondo-boxing-judo) in the values of pelvic symmetry. Conclusion: The non-athletes were found to have more postural asymmetries than the athletes. It had been seen that sport was quite effective and important in protecting the upright posture position.
