Abstract des Autors

The purpose of this investigation was to propose and substantiate a method to determine the changes in maximum performance with age, given current training methods and knowledge. The technique and the information obtained could be used in other studies to help predict changes in performance with age and to understand the effects of physiological variables on performance. Investigators have previously addressed this issue using least squares regression. This paper proposes the use of frontier analysis for this purpose. Verf.-Referat
