  1. Chapter 7 Measuring Psychomotor Skills

  2. Psychomotor Domain • emphasized in school settings • includes: • skill-related physical fitness • development of movement competence

  3. Stages of Movement Competencies • body management • fundamental skills • locomotor • non-locomotor • manipulative • specialized skills • higher skill attainment

  4. Considerations for Testing • Encourage maximum effort. • Get to know each student. • Provide effective demonstrations. • Avoid potentially embarrassing situations. • Test in a nonthreatening environment. • Practice or simulate testing conditions. • Recognize contraindicated activities.

  5. Uses of Psychomotor Tests • Provide valid measurements. • Classify students. • Include item as a part of a more comprehensive set of tests. • Assess performance to predict potential in particular activities. • Motivate students to higher levels of skills performance.

  6. Uses of Psychomotor Tests (continued) • Determine student achievement and grades. • Developing class profiles. • Assess instructional effectiveness in a specific unit of instruction. • Diagnose motor deficiencies. • Supplement and enrich class instruction. • Explain the physical education program to various constituencies.

  7. Skill-Related Dimension • agility • balance • coordination • power • speed • reaction time

  8. Measuring Agility • zig zag runs • side-stepping • obstacle runs • shuttle runs

  9. Measuring Balance • static balance – ability to maintain equilibrium in a stationary position • stork stand • dynamic balance – ability to move through space in a steady and stable manner • balance beam walk

  10. Measuring Coordination • coordination – harmoniously integrate multiple gross motor skills into a smooth movement pattern • Body Coordination Test • Alternative assessments are often used.

  11. Measuring Power • standing long jump • vertical jump • softball throw for distance (throwing power)

  12. Measuring Speed and Reaction • Speed and reaction can be considered separately, but there is a relationship. • 50 yard dash • Hand Reaction Time Test

  13. Test Batteries for Skill-Related Physical Fitness • Test of Gross Motor Development – 2 • Texas Physical Motor Fitness/Developmental Tests • Purdue Perceptual-Motor Survey • Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency

  14. Test Batteries for Students with Disabilities • Test of Gross Motor Development – 2 • Purdue Perceptual-Motor Survey • Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency • Adapted Physical Education Assessment Scale • Motor Fitness Testing Manual for the Moderately Mentally Retarded

  15. Measuring Basketball Skills AAHPERD Basketball Skills Test • control dribble • defensive movement • passing • speed spot shooting

  16. Measuring Football Skills AAHPER Football Skills Test • ball-changing zigzag run • catching a forward pass • football pass for accuracy • football punt for distance • kickoff • pull-out • 50-yard dash with football

  17. Measuring Soccer Skills • McDonald Soccer Test • Soccer Battery • dribbling • heading • juggling • wall volleying

  18. Measuring Softball Skills AAHPER Softball Skills Tests (1966) • base running • catching fly balls • fielding ground balls • fungo hitting • overhead throw for accuracy • softball throw for distance

  19. Measuring Volleyball Skills • AAHPER Volleyball Skills Test • passing • serving • setting • volleying • High Wall-Volley Test

  20. Measuring Badminton Skills • French Short-Serve Test • Badminton Wall-Volley Test • Poole Long-Serve Test

  21. Golf • Green Golf Skills Battery • chip shot • long putt • middle-distance shot • pitch shot • Indoor Golf Skill Test

  22. Racquetball • Racquetball Skills Test • Short Wall-Volley Test • Long Wall-Volley Test

  23. Tennis • Revision of the Dyer Backboard Test • Hewitt’s Tennis Achievement Test • Forehand and Backhand Drive • Service Placement Test

  24. Using Alternative Assessments • Carefully designed checklists and rating scales (scoring rubrics) can be used for assessing the psychomotor domain. • student projects • event tasks • peer assessment • self-assessment • teacher observation
