Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the level of multi-choice reaction speed of the lower limbs in school-aged boys by the age of the individual. Testing attended primary school children aged 10 to 15 years (n = 84, height 165.9 +- 26.3 cm, weight 54.8 +- 36.2), which were divided into three age groups.

In this study we tested the multi-choice reaction rate of the lower limbs on the device FiTRO Agility check. To determine the statistical significance of differences between age groups ANOVA was used.

The significance level was set to 0.05. Research shown that boys 10 to 15 years have a significant correlation between age and the level of complex reaction speed (810.7 +- 78.7 in 10-11years; 742 +- 78.2 in 12-13 years and 696.5 +- 66.5 in age of 14-15 years).
