中文摘要：

在收集整理历届亚运会女性冠军数据的基础上,结合相关统计方法总结出中国女性竞技体育人才的时空分布特征,并运用地理学的相关观点解释这种时空分布的原因。结果表明：女性竞技体育人才主要分布在东部沿海各省,西部地区为女性竞技体育人才的缺失区;女性竞技体育人才数量与时间呈正相关关系;不同省份之间女性竞技体育人才内部结构差异显著。形成这种时空分布特征的原因主要包括：1）自然地理环境中地形平坦、气候温和、水文条件好的地区有利于女性运动人才的成长。2）人文地理环境中社会经济因素为女性参与竞技体育运动提供了良好的物质基础;政策支持因素促使某些地区成为女性竞技体育人才的集中地;同时,区域文化差异因素也对女性空间分布格局起着重要作用。3）女性个人成长因素是竞技体育人才数量增加的内在动因。
