Direct linkAgar-Newman, Dana J.; Tsai, Ming-Chang; Klimstra, Marc – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
To evaluate if takeoff speed can be predicted using peak-speed from a linear position transducer (LPT), 21 rowing athletes performed hexagonal-bar jumps in line with the National Team testing protocol. Predictive validity was assessed by comparing peak-speed from a LPT to the criterion measure takeoff speed collected from force plates. The…

Janz, Kathleen F.; Laurson, Kelly R.; Baptista, Fatima; Mahar, Matthew T.; Welk, Gregory J. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
Using a sample of healthy youth (n = 466, 10 to 18 yr), we report the predictive utility of vertical jump power (VJ Power, W) for predicting bone strength. We measured VJ Power using mechanography and an indicator of bone strength, i.e., height-adjusted total bone mineral content less head (TBLH BMC, g), using DXA. Growth curve models were used to…

Baptista, Fátima; Zymbal, Vera; Janz, Kathleen F. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2022
This study examined the predictive validity of musculoskeletal fitness tests for identifying sarcopenia in youth. The sample was 529 participants age 10 to 18 years. Indices included: total lean body mass (LBM) normalized for height (LBM index, LBMI, kg/m2), appendicular LBMI (aLBMI, kg/m[superscript 2]), and LBM to fat body mass (FBM) ratio…

Rhodes, Ryan E.; Matheson, Deborah Hunt; Mark, Rachel – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2010
The purpose of this study was to compare the reliability, variability, and predictive validity of two common scaling response formats (semantic differential, Likert-type) and two numbers of response options (5-point, 7-point) in the physical activity domain. Constructs of the theory of planned behavior were chosen in this analysis based on its…

Gao, Zan; Liu, Yuanlong; Lodewyk, Ken; Zhang, Tao; Kosma, Maria – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2011
The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of outcome likelihood, outcome value, and outcome expectancy using data collected from students in secondary school physical education classes. Dependent measures were examined for construct, concurrent, and predictive validity, as well as internal and temporal reliability. The…

Vehrs, Pat R.; Fellingham, Gilbert W. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2006
The validity of estimates of peak oxygen consumption (VO[subscript 2]peak) using submaximal exercise tests may be compromised when the participants being tested are not similar to the participants used to develop the test. This study compared ethnic differences in the heart rate (HR) and oxygen consumption (VO[subscript 2]) responses to submaximal…

Vlachopoulos, Symeon P.; Michailidou, Sotiria – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2006
The development process and initial validation of the Basic Psychological Needs in Exercise Scale (BPNES) are presented in this study. The BPNES is a domain-specific self-report instrument designed to assess perceptions of the extent to which the innate needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness (Deci & Ryan, 2000) are satisfied in…
