摘要
由於運動與心理健康的相關性愈來愈受到重視，本研究試圖了解國小高年級學生
身體意象、自尊、身體活動現況，以及三者間的關係。以臺北市某二所國小五、
六年級學生爲研究對象，以自填結構式問卷爲調查工具，共 972 名接受調查，問
卷回收率約 97.3%。結果發現研究對象的身體意象、自尊、身體活動平均得分，
分別是 45.79±7.70 分（總分 60 分）、33.33±5.98 分（總分 40 分）、52.02±3.95 分
（總分 56 分）; 男生的身體意象顯著比女生正向(P<.001)，且自尊、身體活動得
分均高於女生(P<.01, P<.05)。身體意象與自尊(r=.46, P<.001)呈正相關、身體意象
與身體活動(r=.27, p<.001)呈正相關，自尊與身體活動亦呈正相關(r=.27,
p<.001)。欲提升學生的身體活動，應重視身體意象及自尊的改善，尤應針對外
表及身材方面，提供適性的輔導。

p<.001). The findings of this work indicate that promoting physical activity may offer an effective way of enhancing the self-esteem of elementary school students and promoting a
