17
Q

Convergent validity

A

High correlation between test results and the gold standard

18
Q

Predictive validity

A

Extent to which the test score corresponds with future performance

19
Q

Discriminate validity

A

Ability of a test to distinguish between two different constructs

20
Q

Define reliability

A

Measure of degree of consistency or repeat ability

21
Q

Intrasubject variability

A

Lack of consistent performance of person being tested

22
Q

Interrater variability

A

Degree to which different raters agree

23
Q

Intrarater variability

A

Lack of consistent scores by a given tester

24
Q

Metabolic energy system specificity

A

Emulates energy requirements of sport

25
Q

Biomechanical movement pattern specificity

A

More similar the test is to an important sport movement, the better

26
Q

Other factors for test selection (3)

A

Experience and training status, Age and sex, environmental factors

27
Q

Logical order of testing

A

Non fatiguing, agility, max power and strength, sprint, local muscular endurance, fatiguing anaerobic, aerobic

28
Q

Maximum muscular strength

A

Low speed. Force a muscle or group can exert in one max effort

29
Q

Max muscular strength quantified by (3)

A

Max weight lifted once, max force exerted isometrically, max force at particular isokinetic speed

30
Q

Max muscular power

A

High speed strength. Ability of muscle to exert high for e while contracting at high speed

31
Q

Tests for max muscular power

A

Clean, snatch, jerk, vert jump,time to sprint up staircase

32
Q

Anaerobic capacity

A

Max rate of energy production by the combined phosphagen and lactic acid energy systems for moderate duration activities

33
Q

Anaerobic capacity quantified by

A

Max power output during muscular activity between 30 and 90 seconds

34
Q

Local muscular endurance

A

Ability of certain muscles or groups to perform repeated contractions against a submax resistance

35
Q

Local muscular endurance should be performed in…

A

A continuous manner for several seconds to several minutes without rest

36
Q

Aerobic capacity

A

Max rate at which an athlete can produce energy thru oxidation. Of energy resources

37
Q

Agility

A

Ability to stop, start, and change directions rapidly and in a controlled manner

38
Q

Speed

A

Time taken to cover a certain distance. Movement distance er unit of time.

39
Q

Flexibility

A

ROM about a body joint

40
Q

Body composition

A
