Abstract
[b]Aim. [/b]To complete an information given in the previous publication (Anthropometrica, No 45) about the selection of sports gifted children and verification of the assumptions taken in this probe research.[b]Material and methods.[/b] Children from the third form in 14 Wroclaw grammar schools were the subject of research. Description of measurements and methods of calculation of final assessments were presented in previous paper. Age, somatic traits and results of 5 motor trials in sample of 312 boys and 307 girls were taken into account.[b]Results.[/b] Statistical analysis showed that the mean values were not significantly different from the averages found in the probe research. However, due to the diversity of abilities of children in schools taken into account, the variability of the results was greater. The results of all 5 applied motor trials highly correlated with that obtained in the probe research. Very high correlation of 4-trial set with the complete 5-trial set made possible to simplify the measurement procedure by elimination of one trial giving the least information. In final estimation, apart the basic product index, also the sum index and T-scale scores were used. Evaluations based on the sum index was similar to that based on product one. The most difference was observed when sum of T points was applied. From the other side the great values of correlation between the product index and the motor index of the relative strength enables to use the last as a simplified and shortened version of evaluation of the motor ability.[b]Conclusions.[/b] The applied method is not fully satisfying due to the lack of adequate tests of evaluation of muscle relax ability as well as sense of motor rhythm. However, it can facilitate the selection. Its efficacy could be assessed after several years of application.
