초록
In spite of the longevity and prevalence of Taekwondo practice around the world, the scientific study of Taekwondo, particularly its effects on child development, is just beginning. In this manuscript, I review several three recent randomized experimental studies with children, which have demonstrated that high quality Taekwondo training can improve children’s self-regulation, executive function, classroom behavior, and motor skills. These studies all support the effectiveness of Taekwondo as an intervention to promote positive youth development. Results from these randomized, controlled studies are consistent with prior correlational research in which Taekwondo and other martial arts programs were found to be associated with both physical effects such as fitness, coordination, motor skill and psychological benefits of affective, cognitive, behavioral, and social improvements. Taekwondo warrants further research to help us better understand the processes involved in producing positive effects on children.
