This study evaluated the agreement between Kinect V2 with AssessLink and Vicon motion capture systems in children performing the vertical jump (JL) and forward leap (Leap). Eighteen healthy children (5-17 years) performed the movements while recorded simultaneously by both motion capture systems. Spearman correlation ([rho]) and Bland-Altman were…

Dyadic interactions generate direct relationships in which interdependent sport behaviors can be destructured. The focus of this investigation was to develop a two-level performance framework and corresponding measures of individual- and dyad-level sport performance. The described procedures surrounded a male-female cheerleading paired-stunt task,…

The purpose of this study was to analyze the kinematic variables that determine the performance of the standing long jump in children 6- to 12-years-old. There were 121 healthy children (58 girls) recorded while they performed the standing long jump test. All kinematic variables showed a significant correlation with calculated jump distance and…

Where as video cameras are a reliable and established technology for the measurement of kinematic parameters, accelerometers are increasingly being employed for this type of measurement due to their ease of use, performance, and comparatively low cost. However, the majority of accelerometer-based studies involve a single channel due to the…

The reliability of a laser system was compared with the reliability of a video-based kinematic analysis in measuring displacement and velocity during running. Validity and reliability of the laser on static measures was also assessed at distances between 10 m and 70 m by evaluating the coefficient of variation and intraclass correlation…
