The assessment of preschool children's motor skills after the familiarization with motor test
The research was conducted in order to establish the influence of familiarization on the information component of movement in a motor task for assessment of preschool children’s motor skills. The sample included 50 children whose mean age was 5.9 years (71.5 months). The experimental group consisted of 27 children who were 5.9 years (71.5 months) old and the control group of 23 children, 5.9years (71.5 months) old. The examinees performed two motor tasks, standing long jump (explosive strength) and standing on one leg on a beam “flamingo test” (balance). The experimental group had a period of familiarization with the motor task in three sessions with five trials every three days. The results indicate statistically significant differences in final testing between both groups of examinees ; the experimental group mean =112.73 cm and the control group mean =100.62 in standing long jump test (p=0.00), and the experimental group mean =27.10s and the control group mean 15.01s in test balance “flamingo test”, (p=0.00). The results obtained in this research indicate that children significantly improved the results in motor test of strength and balance being influenced by familiarization. It was confirmed that it was necessary to be familiar with the test and it is not justified to use testing and assessment protocols and standards for adults in work with preschool children. Physical educators and coaches, when testing preschool children, should introduce children to tests to obtain the best result.
