    Abstract:

    A person's sense of competence in doing things (perceived competence) is one of the important factors in the development of self-concept. Perceived physical and movement competence plays a significant role in the idea of ??participation in physical activities. On the other hand, success in basic movement skills (actual movement competence) can increase perceived movement competence and motivation for physical activity. Obese children are often exposed to weak self-concept and lack of motivation for inactivity and more endangering their health due to several reasons, including inappropriate physical appearance. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the development of basic motor skills and perceived motor competence in obese and non-obese 10-year-old girls and to compare these two variables in these two groups. The method of this research was correlational. The statistical population included 10-year-old female students of Sirjan city, 60 obese and 60 non-obese were selected as available. According to the criteria of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), obese and non-obese children were separated. In order to measure basic motor skills, gross motor development (TGMD-2; Ulrich, 2000) was used, and to measure the perceived competence of the physical ability subtest, Self-Description Questionnaire-1 (PSDQ; Marsh, 1992) was used. The findings showed that there is no significant relationship between basic motor skills and perceived motor competence in obese girls, but this relationship was significant but weak (0.27) in non-obese girls. From the results of this study, it can be predicted that, in addition to the development of fundamental motor skills or real motor competence, perceived motor competence is influenced by other variables that need further study. Basic motor skills and perceived motor competence in obese girls were significantly (p<0.114) lower than non-obese girls. Therefore, it is possible that obese girls have a lower real and perceived motor competence due to low movement experiences and not having a suitable appearance or the low quality of school physical education programs. Based on Marsh's theory, motor development leads to the development of self-esteem and self-concept. Therefore, motor incompetence has a negative effect on the emotional development of children. The results of the current research remind the educational planners of the importance of effective physical education programs that match the developmental needs of children.

    Key words: perceived motor competence, actual motor competence, basic motor skills, obese, non-obese

    Introduction

     

    Man, as a conscious being, has always sought to know his personality, self and preserve his physical and mental organization. Each person has a specific understanding of the word "self" [1]. Self-concept [2] is generally considered as a person's awareness of personal characteristics, traits and limitations, and in fact, it refers to how a person looks at himself without having personal judgment or any comparison with other people (Galaho and Azmon, 2008). According to the results of studies on living conditions and quality of life and the type of experiences a person gradually forms his self-concept. Therefore, the period of childhood and adolescence is the most important period of self-concept development and the development of a positive view of oneself (Islami Nasab, 1373). From Harter's point of view (1981), self-concept appears in two dimensions: academic self-concept[3] and non-academic self-concept. Academic self-concept is related to subjects such as math and English.  Non-academic self-concept is also divided into social[4], emotional[5] and physical[6] levels. Each of these levels in turn has subsets. For example, body self-concept includes appearance[7] and physical abilities[8] and movement (Marsh, 1997) and refers to a person's attitude towards his body (Bahram and Shafizadeh, 2013). Therefore, the level of proficiency of the child in movement skills and physical abilities in games is very effective on the quality of his self-concept development. According to Galaho's motor development model [9], basic motor skills that can be perfected in childhood from two to seven years old are the foundation of a child's success in games and sports skills. These skills, which are also known as gross motor skills, i.e.These skills, which are also known as gross motor skills, i.e. skills that require the action of large muscles of the body, and include moving skills such as running and various types of jumping, and object control motor skills such as throwing and catching a ball (Galaho, 2006). Studies show that children who are proficient in these skills enjoy playing and physical activity more; Therefore, they are more mobile. In other words, a child who feels capable in performing movement and sports skills is more motivated to participate in sports games and competitions (Marsh, 2005). According to Harter's motivational theory [10], a person's feeling towards his abilities, which is presented as perceived competence [11], is one of the underlying variables of motivation and the development of self-concept and self-esteem, therefore, a person's understanding of his physical and motor abilities or perceived motor competence [12] can play a decisive role in choosing an active and inactive lifestyle (Galaho and Azmon, 2008).

    Today, obesity[13] is known as one of the diseases of the century, and this same problem has also plagued children and adolescents in the last few decades, which threatens the physical and mental health of future societies (Mulvani, 2007). Considering that one of the causes of obesity is inactivity, and based on what was said above, it can be predicted that the training and development of basic motor skills can be among the strategies to prevent and deal with obesity due to increasing motivation for physical activity, however, for a better understanding of the factors affecting obesity and the relationship between motor skills, perceived motor competence and obesity, there is a need to conduct research in this field in our society. For this reason, the aim of this research is to evaluate the relationship between the development of fundamental motor skills[14] and perceived motor competence in obese and non-obese girls.           

    1- 2. Statement of the problem

    motor development [15] varies throughout life and psycho-social changes can also be seen with changes in motor development (Galaho, 2006). The most important period of motor development among the periods of life is the childhood period, which is characterized by continuous physical, motor, cognitive and emotional growth (Fazel, 2006).

    Galaho has divided human motor development into four periods, one of which is the period of basic movements. Movement skills of object control [17], including throwing, receiving the ball and hitting the ball, and transfer skills [18], including rolling, running and jumping (Galaho and Azmon, 2008).

    According to the model of motor development of Galaho, these basic motor skills evolve during childhood under the influence of physical development, education and training. Yaband (Pani, 2002). Pangrazi [19] (2004) states that learning gross motor skills in early childhood is necessary because they are the cornerstone of complex motor skills (Red, 2002). Developmental retardation of children in these
    skills affects the learning of sports skills, academic success and mental function and interaction and social adaptation of children. This factor will prevent the development of self-confidence and self-worth in children (Zarezadeh, 2018).

    Until now, the studies conducted on the relationship between perceived motor competence and the development of fundamental motor skills show that perceived competence plays a significant role in the motivation of success and the level of children's sports participation (Sheikh, 2019). Ulrich's study (1987) shows that children's mastery of basic motor skills, which are referred to as real motor competence, is related to the quality of children's self-concept and feeling of motor competence, and most children tend to be physically inactive due to their low level of perceived or real competence (Bahram and Shafizadeh 2013). As Morgan and his colleagues (2008) showed, children who have a higher perceived and real motor competence (for example, children who believe that they are good at sports performance and learn new sports skills early), have higher levels of physical activity than children who have a lower perceived competence (Baghalian, 2013). Kathleen Kilay (2010) found out from a study about preschool and elementary school children that children who have a high level of physical fitness, i.e. real motor skills, are less likely to be overweight or obese (Fazel, 2016).
