對香港、北京、上海、廣州、福州、蘇州的部分中學體育教師關於21世紀體育教師應具備的能力的問卷調查和統計分析顯示，香港與內地中學體育教師相當一致地認為，教學能力、組織能力、訓練能力、自學能力是中學體育教師最重要的能力，香港教師比內地教師更注重自學能力，兩地教師在中學體育教師應具備科研能力和審美能力方面存在認識不足。

This comparative research was designed to investigate the knowledge on the occupational abilities of 1345 secondary school physical education teachers from Hong Kong (n=513), Beijing (n=151), Shanghai (n=174), Guangzhou (n=192), Fuzhou (n=131) and Suzhou (n=184). The results indicate that the ability of teaching, organizing, training, and self-study were consistently considered as the most important factors for the secondary school physical education teachers. The physical education teachers from Hong Kong paid more attention to the ability of self-study than those from Inland China. Teachers from both Hong Kong and Inland China did not pay much attention to research and aesthetic abilities.
