摘要：AbstractDue to specific conditions, inclusive education in Romania is one of the priorities in terms of know-how, instruction, education and also, changing mentalities. The aim of this study is to identify whether the unified sports and gymnastics in particular have positive effects upon motor components and behavioural aspects in mentally disabled children .The methods we used in this research were the pedagogical observation and the experiment with transverse approaches. The experimental group includes 100 competitors (50 with intellectual disabilities and 50 children from mainstream schools), both girls and boys, aged between 8 and 32.In order to assess the quantitative and quality effects, individual times and deduction times were taken for each applicative path that children performed. Each element from the route has certain specific demands, so that the deficient areas observed during its performing will be improved by consistent training. By means of the oriented observation, strong points, as well as weaknesses were identified, in terms of motor, psychomotor and social abilities. Comparative results of the abled and disabled subjects, statistically processed, confirm the complex influences of gymnastics means on educational, motor and behavioural levels. Unified gymnastics competitions reveal a new dynamic approach in fulfilling the objectives of the inclusive physical education. Such an applicative path, with gymnastics elements could further become a complex test for motor, psychomotor abilities, capacities, required and enhanced in physical education classes.
