Study on the Physical Development of Primary School Students in Urban and Rural Areas by Measuring of Palm Growth
2023 13th International Conference on Information Technology in Medicine and Education (ITME)(2023)
Abstract
The study included 226 students from grades 1 to 6, with an equal distribution between rural and urban schools. The aim of this study was to analyze the physical development of the students, taking into account factors such as age, gender, height, weight, and palm size. The study specifically focused on examining the relationship between palm grip strength and other physical indicators. Data encompassed age, gender, height, weight, finger length, palm width, and grip strength for both hands. Results revealed that urban students had significantly wider palms than their rural counterparts (p < 0.05). A positive correlation was found between finger length and palm width, especially pronounced in rural areas. Although there was no significant difference in grip strength between the hands, urban students demonstrated higher average grip strength. In conclusion, palm grip strength correlates with physical development, and urban students tend to develop faster than their rural peers, providing valuable insights for education and health policies.
