한국과 중국 엘리트 선수의 수영과 육상경기 기록비율의 성차

Abstract

This study analyzed relative records ratio of female athletes among the average records of a total of 1,986 male and female middle and high school track-and-field and swimming athletes who advanced to the finals of their respective sports at the National Sports Games and the National Youth Sports Games and the China National Youth Games in 2015, 2016, and 2017 by using independent-t testthe paired-t test. Based on the comparative analysis of the sports, the following conclusions were drawn from the study: First, relative records ratio showed no statistically significant differences between Korean and Chinese in total swimming. Second, relative records ratio showed no statistically significant differences between Korean and Chinese in total track-and-field. Third, relative records ratio showed statistically significant differences between track event and field event in total track-and-field(p<.001). Forth, relative records ratio showed statistically significant differences between swimming and track-and-field(p<.001). The above conclusions are meaningful as they demonstrate relative record ratio differences in gender among sports.
