摘要:Abstract. The aim of the present investigation was to compare the height, body mass, relative body fat content and two of motor test scores (30 m dash and 1200 m run) in the samples of Budapest children aged between 10 and 13 years investigated in 1975 (n = 739) and 2000 (n = 660). As one of the consequences of secular growth trend the boys were significantly taller and heavier in 2000 than 25 years ago in all the four studied age groups. Their mean relative body fat content was also greater. No significant differences were found between the means of 30 m dash time, nevertheless, their average running time in endurance test was statistically longer in 2000. The possible explanations of the observed unfavourable tendencies can be: The prestige of general, non-competitive like regular physical activity, the number of classes with special PE curriculum, the number of sport schools and youth departments within the sport clubs have decreased markedly during the past decades
