A study of the relationships between selected perceptual-motor behaviors and: achievement in reading; achievement in mathematics; classroom behavior; academic self-concept; and academic motivation for first and third grade boys and girls

Creator:: Levenspiel, Mary Josephine
Abstract:: This study investigated the relationships between selected perceptual-motor behaviors and the following: achievement in reading, achievement in mathematics, academic self-concept, academic motivation and classroom behavior. This investigation was designed to explore the suggestion of Newell Kephart that there is a relationship between perceptual-motor behavior and school success, and to provide...

Preschool children's motor development and perceived competence

Creator:: Boucher, Barbara H.
Abstract:: This study compared the effects of two conditions on the motor development of preschool children and investigated the relationship between preschool children's motor development and perceived competence. Specifically, it provided information for discerning: a) the relative effects of a sensory-motor condition and an unstructured activities condition on the motor development...

A comparison of reverse- and forward-chaining instructional methods on a motor task with mentally retarded individuals

Creator:: Hsu, Pao-yin
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare the reverse-chaining and forward-chaining instructional methods in teaching a motor task to mentally retarded individuals. The subjects were selected from Fairview Training Center, Salem, Oregon. Each of the subjects was classified as mentally retarded with a range from moderate to severe retardation....

The influence of perceptual training on volleyball performance among adolescent females

Creator:: Tyry, Tuula-Maija A.
Abstract:: This study investigated the influence of perceptual training on volleyball serve-reception performance. The subjects were ten female high-school volleyball players. Subjects were randomly assigned in equal numbers to a control or an experimental group. Both groups were tested on two occasions, prior to and following a three-week perceptual training intervention....

The effect of trials-to-criterion on the retention of a discrete motor skill by moderately retarded and severely mentally retarded individuals

Creator:: Morehouse, James Wesley
Abstract:: The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of trials-to-criterion on the retention of a discrete motor skill (overhand beanbag throw) by moderately mentally retarded and severely mentally retarded individuals. Nonmentally retarded individuals were involved as a control group. The subjects were grouped by degree of retardation and...

The effects of three levels of contextual interference on acquisition and retention of a sequential motor skill in moderately mentally retarded and nonretarded individuals

Creator:: Nearingburg, Patt
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of three levels of contextual interference on the acquisition and retention of a sequential motor skill, by moderately mentally retarded and nonretarded subjects. The subjects were functioning between an eight and twelve year level. The dependent measures included; Reaction Time...

The relative effectiveness of three forms of visual knowledge of results on maximal strength output in an isokinetic extension/flexion of the knee

Creator:: Hobbel, Susan Laurie
Abstract:: This experiment was conducted to study the effects of three different forms of visual knowledge of results (KR) on maximal strength output in isokinetic exercise. The task used was an isokinetic extension of the knee, followed by a corresponding flexion. Four, six-subject experimental groups completed four testing sessions conducted over...

Effect of intervention strategies on specific verbal feedback of volunteers and its secondary effect on qualitative motor performance

Creator:: Gately, Jeanne E.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was twofold. First, to determine if planned interventions could increase untrained undergraduate students' use of positive and specific skill feedback while a teaching fundamental motor skill to children who are disabled. Second, to qualitatively assess the effect of specific verbal feedback on student motor performance....
