Forcasting Quality of Eurofit Battery in Motor Tests as Related to Specific Movement Structures in Sports Disciplines
Journal Title: Sportske nauke i zdravlje - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The research was conducted on the sample of 120 participants – the students of Combined technical high school in Travnik, age from 15 to 16 years old. All the students from the sample regularly attended physical and health education classes during the school year, and didn’t have noticeable ‘motor and psychological aberrations’. The research utilized Eurofit motor test battery defined as a predictor group of variables and a group of twelve variables for evaluation of acquisition of specific movement structures in sports disciplines, reduced to the first main component, and defined as a criterion. The main goal of the research was to determine statistically significant differences and the scope of the relative influence of Eurofit motor test battery, as a predictor of the level of specific movement structures acquisition in sports disciplines, defined as a criterion. To determine the statistical significance and the scope of the relative impact of Eurofit motor test battery on the level of specific movement structures acquisition in sports disciplines (basketball, handball, volleyball and football) reduced to the first main component, we applied linear regression analysis. The regression analysis results indicate high forecasting quality of Eurofit motor test battery on the quality of realization of specific movement structures in sports disciplines (basketball, handball, volleyball and football), and the most important forecasting quality was shown in strength tests in all their manifestations, segmental speed tests, agility and general endurance tests. The results can be useful to physical and health education teachers as a good basis for higher quality syllabi for sports disciplines, choice of teaching equipment, monitoring and controlling of education effects on anthropological status of students, as well as for a more objective evaluation of students’ achievements in education.
