Britton, Úna; Belton, Sarahjane; Peers, Cameron; Issartel, Johann; Goss, Hannah; Roantree, Mark; Behan, Stephen – European Physical Education Review, 2023
Physical literacy (PL) is highlighted as a construct that can positively impact physical activity (PA). Measurement methods and definitions for PL exist, but vary between research groups. This variation affects the ability to compare research findings. The purpose of this study was to assess the construct validity of PL in children. PL was…

Valianto, Budi; Akhmad, Imran; Hariadi; Novita; Suharjo; Nurkadri – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2023
This research aims to determine the impact of "Galah Asin" games with parental support on the fundamental movement skills of elementary school students. The sampling technique by dividing the population into two groups: a group that used the Galah Asin game (group I) and a group that used a modified Galah Asin game (group II) in the test…

Mulazimoglu, Olcay – Educational Policy Analysis and Strategic Research, 2020
This study aims to analyze the impact of slackline exercises on the balance skills of university student on their learning. Twenty university student kickboxers voluntarily attended the study (8 women and 12 men). They were randomly divided into two groups (each group four females and six males) as the experimental group (EG) and the control group…

Ward, Brodie; Thornton, Ashleigh; Lay, Brendan; Chen, Nigel; Rosenberg, Michael – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2020
Purpose: Fundamental movement skill (FMS) assessors in education environments rely upon real-time FMS assessment; however, the recognition of individual proficiency criteria during real-time process-oriented FMS assessment may be problematic. Few studies consider the accuracy of identifying individual proficiency criteria in process-oriented FMS…

Palatnik, Alik; Abrahamson, Dor – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2018
This article concerns the purpose, function, and mechanisms of students' rhythmic behaviors as they solve embodied-interaction problems, specifically problems that require assimilating quantitative information structures embedded into the environment. Analyzing multimodal data of one student tackling a bimanual interaction design for proportion,…

Pei-Jung Wang; Hua-Fang Liao; Li-Chiou Chen; Lin-Ju Kang; Lu Lu; Karen Caplovitz Barrett – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2024
Motivation is a key factor for child development, but very few studies have examined child and family predictors of both child task and perceived motivation. Thus, the three aims of this 6-month longitudinal study in preschoolers with global developmental delays (GDD) were to explore: 1) differences between task and perceived motivation in…

Homa Rafiei Milajerdi; Anna Thacker; Mahboubeh Ghayour Najafabadi; Christoph Clephas; Larry Katz – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2024
Purpose: To establish a consensus on the complexity of 16 fundamental movement skills (FMS). Initially, complexity was defined as how difficult it would be to teach FMS to children and for the children to learn them. Method: The study was conducted using a modified Delphi method and a mobile application called Move Improve® to showcase video…

Li, Mingda; Li, Weidong; Kim, Junyoung; Xiang, Ping; Xin, Fei; Tang, Yan – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2021
Self-efficacy theory assumes that students' efficacy beliefs affect their performance through process variables, including behavior, cognition, and affection. The purpose of this study was to utilize self-efficacy theory as a theoretical framework to propose a conceptual model of a mediating relationship among perceived motor skill competence,…

Ketcheson, Leah; Felzer-Kim, Isabella Theresa; Hauck, Janet L. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2021
Purpose: There is a relationship between motor and language skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but little work addresses the ramifications of this relationship for professionals who teach motor skills to this population. Within a motor skills intervention, this study probed the importance of language skills for motor…

Pacewicz, Christine E.; Myers, Nicholas D. – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2021
Longitudinal measurement enables the examination of behavioral or psychological change. One approach to examining longitudinal measurements is the use of latent growth curve modeling (LGCM). This approach affords the assessment of inter- and intraindividual change. Yet, this approach likely is underused in exercise science. The purpose of the…

Valentini, Nadia Cristina; Nobre, Glauber Carvalho; Zanella, Larissa Wagner; Pereira, Keila G.; Albuquerque, Maicon Rodrigues; Rudisill, Mary Elizabeth – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
Background: The Test of Gross Motor Development--3 (TGMD-3) is used to assess locomotor (LOCS) and ball (BS) skills in children. This test provides relevant information for evaluating learning and determining teaching efficacy. However, conducting and coding the test is time consuming. A screening form may improve its usage in specific settings…

Staff, Toby; Gobet, Fernand; Parton, Andrew – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2021
The aim of this study was to compare two methodologies employed by the British Cycling talent identification program. Specifically, the authors investigated cyclists selected to represent GB cycling team at the London 2012 Olympics using (a) a traditional talent identification methodology (British Cycling Olympic Development Program), where…

Ali Brian; Jenna R. Fisher; Sally Taunton Miedema; Adam Pennell; Lauren J. Lieberman – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2021
Youth with visual impairments often show difficulties with gross motor skills regardless of age or sex. Gross motor skills support positive developmental trajectories for health warranting the need for assessment. The Total Body Developmental Sequences (TBDS) are fast, easy-to-use, indices of gross motor development with relatively unknown…

Carballo-Fazanes, Aida; Díaz-Pereira, María P.; Fernández-Villarino, María A.; Abelairas-Gómez, Cristian; Rey, Ezequiel – Psychology in the Schools, 2023
Schools have been postulated as ideal environments to encourage physical activity (PA). This study aimed to assess the relationship between PA in school hours, motor competence, and screen time in a sample of Spanish preschool children. Fifty-seven 4-5-year-old preschoolers (n = 32 girls) participated. The Garmin Vivofit wristband was used to…
