Journal Title: International Journal of Cognitive Research in Science, Engineering and Education (IJCRSEE) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The aim of research was to determine statistically signifcant canonical relations between functional abilities and achieved agility results in children with kyphotic posture. The realization of such task would create possibility to come up with a more rational procedure for optimal planning, programming and control of the process of teaching corrective gymnastics. The research was conducted on a sample of 46 students of primary schools in Niš, all male, aged 12 (± 6 months), included in regular classes of PE and exercises in order to correct kyphosis three times a week for 45 minutes at Niš Health Center. The results of canonical relations with the results of the functional abilities of children with agility kyphotic posture were statistically processed in a way to provide answers to the research goal. We used the program “Statistica” 8.0 for Windows to calculate the descriptive statistical parameters and canonical correlation analysis. The results showed that there are statistically signifcant relations and influences between a set of variables for assessing functional ability, as a predictor system, and agility, as a criterion variable.
