COMPARATIVE STUDY ON SELECTED MOTOR PERFORMANCE COMPONENTS FOR 12-16 YEARS SCHOOL GOING BOYS OF NORTH 24 PARGANAS DISTRICT IN WEST BENGAL
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the existence of statistically significant difference on selected motor performance components i.e, speed, agility, leg explosive strength, coordination and endurance among 12 to 16 years male students of North 24 Parganas District in West Bengal. For this reason, 150 male students of 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 years age group were considered as subjects. The subjects were selected randomly from the school of Naihati Narendra Vidyaniketan. The selected motor performance parameters were restrained to Speed, Agility, Leg Explosive Strength, Coordination and Endurance using standardized tests and procedures. The data on the motor performance parameters were analyzed by applying ANOVA to find out significant differences if any among the age groups and Scheffe’s post hoc test. The level of significance to assess the statistical values obtained was set at 0.05 and also 0.01 level of confidence. The research findings ensure statistically considerable age difference on selected variables and it implies that age differences influence almost all motor performance parameters.
