MATHEMATICAL MODULE FOR PREDICTING HEALTH FITNESS INDEX AMONG ADOLESCENTS MALE OF MUMBAI

Manoj R. Verma, Dr. Kishore J. Maru

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop the mathematical module Health Fitness Index of health related physical fitness of Adolescents Male of Mumbai District.The review of literature does not indicate any studies to evaluate the Mathematical Module for predicting Health Fitness Index among Adolescents Male of Mumbai District. The study was conducted by adopting the Multiple Regression Analysis. The Research Designs of the study was predicting new values for the dependent variable from the given independent variables (Predictive Modeling Technique). To accomplish this objective 3200 Boys / Adolescents Malefrom all the educational divisions of Mumbai District was taken for data collection. The subject’s age group was range from 12 to 19years. The entire participants underwent 14 Physical Fitness Test i.e. Health Related Physical fitness Test components comprise of five test items and Edwin A. Fleishman Test Battery comprise of nine test items. Once the data were collected then the researcher solved the questionnaire and used IBMM SPSS-22 Software for analysis and the data were analyzed by employing Linear Regression Analysis (Analysis of Variance).The result of the study showed that In case of percentage of joint as well as individual contribution the best predictor of Health Fitness Index of Adolescents Male was found to be Muscular Strength, Muscular Endurance and Flexibility of Adolescents Male.Regression Equation for predicting Health Fitness Index on the basis of Age and Health Related Physical Fitness of Adolescents Male.Y= 0.49 Xâ‚ + 0.37 Xâ‚‚ + 0.39 Xâ‚ƒ + 0.09 Xâ‚„ + 0.43 Xâ‚… + 0.10 Xâ‚† + 42.921 {Y =Health Fitness Index X1 =Age X2=Muscular Strength Xâ‚ƒ =Muscular Endurance Xâ‚„ =Cardiovascular Endurance Xâ‚… =Flexibility Xâ‚† =BodyComposition}.

Key words: Health Related Physical Fitness, Mathematical Module, Muscular Strength, Muscular Endurance, Cardio Vascular Endurance, Flexibility, Body Composition, Edwin A. Fleishman Test battery.
