a-c Mean PSK score and 95%-confidence interval for separate subscales for physical self-concept in adolescents 13 through 25 years in patients (ARM/HD) and controls (range 1 to 4 points). a. In the analysis of both genders, the mean scores for sports competence, endurance, speed and flexibility were significantly lower compared to controls. b. In females, there was a significant and major deficit in the subscales for sports competence, endurance, speed, strength and flexibility. c. In males, only the score for flexibility was significantly reduced compared to controls. (* significant difference, PSK = physical self-concept, ARM = anorectal malformation, HD = Hirschsprung’s disease)
