Chapter 12 & 13 Flashcards
Due to the availability of a track at the hottest part of the day what is the least effective method of minimizing health risk
heart rate monitoring
If an athletes test results hi in one day and low the next one aspect of test quality appears to be compromised
Reliability
The difference between two scores and how they score a test is
inter related variability
The difference between one score and how they score of the test on the same person or a different people is
Intrarelated variability
The most relevant test to an American football wide receiver is the
medical John pen 300 to 100 yard sprint
The minimum length of a rest. Recommended between trials that are close to an athletes maximum is
Two minutes
The maximum last night that is recommended between trials for an athlete close to it maximum is
Five minutes
which of the following is the least helpful to record to aid future test sessions for an athlete
Mental state of an athlete on a test today
an athlete is able to identify that the back squat one rep max test is being used to test her maximal lower body strength this is an example of
 Face validity
If it coach is planning a test and it must all be performed on the same day which is the most ideal sequence for the test
Non-fatiguing, agility, maximum power and strength, Springs, local Muslim Durrance, anaerobic capacity, aerobic capacity
An athlete related factor to consider when selecting a test is not
Sport skill level
measurements of axis body composition of being measured by a DEXA scan and a new method. The purpose of using these two messages to establish what type of validity in the new test?
Concurrent
turn the 300 yard shuttle run how far away are the lines and how many rounds are made to complete the test?
25 yards apart at six trips
And in the bathroom meter generally measures what three types of measurements
height, Girths, and weight
in a 10 week training program the one rep max squat mean was 330 pounds, the post squat mean was 343 pounds and the standard deviation was about 13 what was the effect size of the training?
1
name one test valid for local muscle endurance?
Push-ups
an athlete struggles to return to his studies date after a jump what are the components of athletic performance that may be deficient?
Stability
A female athlete is leaner than average on her BMI measurements what is the percentage of body fat she has?
19 to 20%
Well testing and athletes reactive strength index they are told to place their hands
on their hips while a top the box
Which of the following allow someone to draw conclusions about a population of information collected in a population sample?
Inferential statistics
name an example of low speed muscular strength test?
Bench press
for men and women respectively what are the loads that they should be attaining out on YMCA bench test
 80 and 35
What are the 4 reasons for testing an athlete?
assess talent
Identify physical abilities for improvement
Goals
Evaluate progress
how do goals help an athlete?
purpose and motivation, long-term short-term, evaluation of goals.
When evaluating goals long-term goals do not
Change frequently
validity is identified as
Degree to watch the test measures what is designed to measure
When testing the validity of a test it is usually tested on a
Control group before random people
Construct validity asked the question
does it measure what it is supposed to
Face validity ask the question
 What do non-experts think it measures Dash sometimes the athlete being measured
Contant validity asks the question
what do experts think it measures?
Concurrent validity asks to
Compare the test to something that measures the same thing
Concurrent validity compares a test to the
Gold standard
Predictive validity
predicts performance (does the score translate to play)
We liability describes the test ability to be
Accurate over a certain number of times
Intra-subject variability is identified as
A person who has a good day and a good test and then a bad day and bad test
Interrator reliability is identified as…
difference in Howell one tester measures of one athlete compared to another.
Intrarater reliability is identified as
The tester doesn’t give consistent scores.
things to consider when selecting a test are the —- specificity —– specificity.
in addition to the energy in Sports specificity when selecting a test the test or should consider
 Experience and training
Age
Sex
Environment
when putting a test together the tester should consider the following rest sequence
2- non-fatiguing tests in a row
2- min rest multiple trials not close to Max
3- minutes rest multiple trials close to Max
5- minutes rest for test Battery with Max reps in multiple tests
During test administration health and safety considerations should include
PPE
Head injuries
Ortho injuries
during Test administration in addition to health and safety what four other items should be considered
Selection and training of testers
Recording forms
Test format
Test batteries 
The sequence of tests should be the following seven evolutions
- non-fatiguing tests
- Agility(detest, pro agility)
- Max power and strength(one rep max power clean or squat)
- Sprint
- Local muscle endurance (push-ups, curl ups)
- Fatiguing anaerobic capacity (300 yard shuttle )
- Aerobic capacity .
when running tests, prior you want to provide athletes…
Pretest instructions
Demonstrate test forms
Give athletes scores immediately for motivation 
Body mass index classification  for someone who is underweight is
Less than 18.5
Body mass index for someone who is normal as identified at
18.5 to 24.9
Body mass index for someone who is overweight is above
25
Body mass index for someone who is obese class one, and obese class two is over
30
Body mass index is calculated by dividing
Weight by height
Body mass index cannot determine
lean or fat mass
amount of lean body mass can be a predictor of
Performance
measuring body composition should be done throughout the cycle of
Preseason, and season, postseason, performance drop
losing lean body mass is not abnormal for players with
A long season like baseball players
The two areas of body composition that can be manipulated include
muscle tissue and nonessential fat
(muscle men/ women 45/36)
( fat 12/15)
body fat descriptive data for athletes in clothes the following:
What are the sixth methods of measuring body composition
underwater weighing (gold standard)
Bioelectrical impedance
Girth measurement
Skinfold thickness
Bod pod
Dual energy x-ray
What are the two most cost effective ways to measure body composition in high school or college athletes
 Girth measurement, skinfold thickness
What are the two ways of measuring body composition that have cost and dedicated facilities
Bod pod and dual energy x-ray
what is the minimum time to measure body composition between measurements
Three months
what is the standard error of measurement of a skinfold test
3.5%
When conducting a skinfold test the tester
Pinches in between the time in the forefinger uses a caliber to measure the thickness and obtains to measures an average is the score
The most important aspect of using the skinfold test on athletes is to ensure that you
Make the same calculation each time you do it on the same athlete
The percent of body fat from any density and population of athletes of high school and college age both male and female for the skinfold test is
4.57/Db -4.142
when taking a girth measurement you are taking it in what’s seven places?
