The results of this study indicate that round robin tournaments based on matches of shortened length are highly effective in estimating the true skill ranking of table tennis players. (JD)

Results of this study suggest that physical endurance may be enhanced if movement is rhythmically coordinated with a musical stimulus. (JD)

Data from two separate experiments conducted to ascertain the optimum protocol for a maximum anaerobic work output test on the bicycle ergometer indicated that the test duration needs to be approximately forty seconds and the optimal frictional resistance five to six kilograms. (MB)

In this study, 16 strength, work, and power tests were administered to 50 male college students, and scores were analyzed using multiple factor analytic models. (JS)

It was concluded in this study that variation in body size and body composition should be considered when interpreting results of the AAHPER Youth Fitness Test. (JS)

The author describes a valid, reliable, and inexpensive modified pull-up test capable of discriminating among subjects of low strength and endurance. (MJB)

The purpose of this study is to compare by accepted statistical criteria the best and average scores as estimators of a subject's maximum performance. (JD)

Results of an analysis of the Avery-Richardson Tennis Serve Test are presented. (JD)

Test results on the effects of achievement outcome on causal attributions were determined using a stabilometer performance as the criterion task. (JD)

No significant differences in measures of flexibility, muscular endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, speed, balance, or muscular power were found between black and Caucasian girls ages six, seven, and eight. Blacks were significantly superior on two agility measurements, and Caucasians better on shuttle run and grip strength. (MJB)

Tests indicate that males have better performance than females in motor performance tests, with the exception of flexibility; black children ran significantly faster than white children in the 30-yd dash, but significant race differences were not evident on any other motor items. (JD)

Comparison of performance between subjects who practice transcendental meditation and those who do not revealed that meditation does not improve fine motor skills although it has many other benefits. (JD)

Generalizability theory provides the teacher and the researcher with a flexible method for establishing reliability coefficients in tests. This theory is effective in estimating reliability for a set of motor performance test scores. (CJ)
