dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of birth weight on thephysical fitness parameters of children.Materials and Methods: The sample consisted of 180 (90 boys and 90 girls) childrenaged between 8-10 years. Participants were grouped as low (n = 60), normal (n= 60), andhigh (n= 60) birth weight groups based on their birth weight and gestation weeks. In theresearch, anthropometric measurements (height, weight, and BMI) and Eurofit test battery(flamingo balance, plate tapping, sit and reach, standing broad jump, handgrip strength,30s sit-ups, bent-arm hang, and 10x5m shuttle run tests) were performed.Results: No statistically significant difference was found between the birth weight groupsin terms of the results of anthropometric measurements and scores of Eurofit physicalfitness tests (p > .05).Conclusion: It was determined that birth weight has no influence on the measuredanthropometric and physical fitness parameters of children aged 8 to10 years.en_US
