本研究旨在探討兒童體操對聽覺障礙學生平衡能力之影響,研究對象是一名10歲患有平衡問題之聽障學生,研究方法採單一受試研究法之A-B-A設計,包括基線期(2週)、介入期(8週)和維持期(2週),介入期每週介入2次,每次50分鐘。兒童體操是本研究的自變項,依變項則是受試學生的動態平衡能力與靜態平衡能力,分別透過「睜眼通過平衡木」及「閉眼單足站立」兩項測驗蒐集資料,並將資料進行曲線圖的目視分析、C統計與效果量分析,以瞭解介入和維持的成效。結果顯示:兒童體操對國小聽障學童動態、靜態平衡能力的增進皆具有習得成效和維持效果。本研究結論:兒童體操能有效改善聽障學童之動態平衡能力及靜態平衡能力。
The purpose of this research is to explore the effect of kids gymnastics on balance ability for children with hearing impairment. The object of this study was a 10-year-old hearing impaired student with a balance problem. A-B-A design of single subject research was conducted, including 2-week baseline, 8-week intervention and 2 week maintenance phases. The intervention was 50 minutes every time and twice a week. The independent variable was kids gymnastics. The dependent variables were dynamic balance ability and static balance ability. These two tests "Walking forward on the balance beam- eye opened" and "Standing on one leg-eye closed" were designed by researchers to collect data analyzed by visual analysis of the line chart, C statistics and effect size, in order to understand the effect of intervention and maintenance. The results showed that Kids gymnastics had an acquisition and maintenance effect on the improvement of the hearing-impaired children's static balance and dynamic balance. We conclude that kids gymnastics can effectively improve the dynamic and static balance ability of hearing impaired children.
