Abstract
To determine the predictive potential of selected cognitive and psychomotor variables to estimate basketball performance, 50 male high school players from 3 schools in the same conference were evaluated. One team won the Iowa state championship; the second team had a 12 and 10 record while the third team had a 4 and 16 record. The 3 coaches rated each players ability from 1 to 10. Multiple regression analysis to predict coaches rating of ability from vertical jump, hand reaction time, weight, and playing experience gave an R of .76. However, discriminant analysis to classify players on the 3 teams indicated as important knowledge about basketball, dribbling, shooting accuracy, and height. The canonical correlation for the 4 variables and team membership was .64. Using the 4 variables, 60 of the players could be correctly classified to their teams. Verf.-Referat
