Abstract
本研究の目的は，豪雪地の生活に適った生活機能の評価指標としてショベリング投擲力テストに着目し，その信頼性および妥当性について従来の体力指標やパフォーマンスとの関連性から検討することであった。20名の高齢男性と15名の高齢女性および34名の男子大学生による5kg と10kg の測定では，それぞれ6週間（男性高齢者，r=0.957；女性高齢者，r=0.924）と４週間（５kg，r=0.924 ; 10kg，r＝0.923）を隔てたtest-retest法による信頼性に関する有効な係数が得られた。男子大学生258名における妥当性の検証でも地域性や実施頻度が反映されるとともに，41名の男子大学生による垂直方向との有意な相関がみられたことにより「ショベリング投擲力テスト」が積雪地住民の生活機能評価として有効であることが検証された。
The present study focuses on the "shoveling throw ability" test for evaluating lifestyle function in areas that experience heavy snowfall. The objective of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the test in relation to conventional indicators of physical fitness and performance. Measurements collected at 6-week intervals from 20 elderly men and 15 elderly women yielded reliability coefficients of r=0.957 and r=0.924, respectively. Measurements collected at 4-week intervals from 34 male college students using 5 and 10 kg sand bags also yielded high reliability coefficients of r=0.924 and r=0.923,respectively. The results of an investigation of the validity of the test,conducted on 258 male college students,reflected the local characteristics and implementation frequency of the subjects while in 41 male college students, a significant correlation was observed with vertical throw distance. These findings indicate that the "shoveling throw ability" test is effective for evaluating lifestyle function among residents of regions that experience heavy snowfall.
