Abstract

Objective: To comprehensively evaluate the physical health level of students of different school-age segments in four regions of Anhui province using the entropy weight approximation ideal solution ranking method (TOPSIS), and to provide a scientific method and basis for conducting school health work evaluation. Methods: Using the physical fitness survey data of four regions in Anhui province, the entropy weight method was used to draw the weights of various indicators for different school-age segments of men and women. Then, the TOPSIS method was used to evaluate the school-age segments of men and women in the four regions. Finally, the physical health level of students in four regions was classified according to the results of entropy weight TOPSIS and the rank sum ratio method. Results: A total of 10 127 students were included in this study, with an average age of (11.85±3.82) years, including 5 050 males (49.8%) and 5 072 urban students (50.1%). The results of the entropy weight method showed that the weight of body mass index of boys was similar to that of girls in each school-age segment. According to the TOPSIS and rank sum ratio analysis, the physical health level of students in the four regions of Anhui province was different. The physical health score of Suzhou was 0.617 4 points, which was classified as the best grade. The scores of Hefei and Wuhu were 0.556 3 and 0.411 2, which were classified as middle. Jiju City scored 0.381 9 points, which was classified as poor. Conclusion: TOPSIS combined with rank sum ratio can reflect the level of students' physical health, which can be applied to the evaluation of students' physical health and provide a basis for monitoring students' physical health.

目的: 采用熵权逼近理想解排序法综合评价安徽省四地区不同学龄段学生体质健康水平,为开展学校卫生工作评比提供科学方法和依据。 方法: 利用安徽省四地区体质调研数据,利用熵权法拟出男女不同学龄段各指标权重,再利用逼近理想解排序法(TOPSIS)对四地区男女不同学龄段进行评价,最后针对熵权TOPSIS得出的结果结合秩和比法对四地区学生体质健康水平进行分类。 结果: 本研究共纳入研究对象10 127名,年龄(11.85±3.82)岁,其中男性5 050名(49.8%),城市学生5 072名(50.1%)。熵权法结果显示,男生各学龄段体质指标权重与女生各学龄段体质指标权重相似。TOPSIS、秩和比法分析显示,安徽省四地区学生体质健康水平存在差异,宿州市体质健康得分为0.617 4分,归为优档;合肥和芜湖市得分分别为0.556 3和0.411 2分,归为中档;池州市得分为0.381 9分,归为差档。 结论: TOPSIS结合秩和比能够反映学生体质健康水平,可应用于学生体质健康评价,为学生体质健康监测工作提供依据。.
