Introduction:The face is one of the biometric tools in identifying the characteristics of individuals.The purpose of the research is to investigate the relationship between some facial biometric factors and performance indicators of non-athletic children aged 9-11.
Method:The present study was a descriptive research with correlational design. The statistical population of this study was all male students in the second to fifth grade of elementary school in the north of Marand County, of which160 people met the conditions for entering the study. Facial biometric dimensions were measured by taking images under standard conditions and analyzing them using the pixelation method in two views including full-face and half face. Sports performance indicators included aerobic power, Claw strength and balance that were measured with a6-minute fast walk test, grip dynamometer, and stork test respectively.Data analysis was performed using Pearson's parametric correlation test. All statistical calculations were performed with SPSS version21software at a significance level of 5%.
Findings:There is a significant correlation between the face length to face width ratio variable with aerobic power (p=0.004,r=0.317), grip strength (p=0.014,r=-0.270), there is also a significant correlation between the nose length to nose width ratio variable with aerobic power (p=0.027,r=0.244). In addition, there is a significant correlation between the nose tip angle variable and static balance (p= 0.007,r= 0.298), The mentolabial angle variable with grip strength (p=0.049,r=-0.215).
Results:According to the results obtained in this study, facial biometric indicators that are a function of heredity and have the least impact from the environment are effective on developable and changeable functions such as aerobic power, strength and static balance.
