Abstract des Autors
This study evaluated the effectiveness of a basic skills course as a prerequisite for performing badminton skills among college women of low motor ability. Subjects (N = 106), classified by the Scott Motor Ability Test, were assigned to one of three groups: (a) a group that experienced a basic skills course prior to badminton instruction, (b) a group enrolled initially in badminton, and (c) a group that expertienced another sport prior to badminton instruction. Data were collected on performance in badminton skills for each group at mid-semester and at the end of semester. No significant differences were found between groups on performance of badminton skills. Results supported the theory of specificity in learning motor skills and did not support the worth of a basic skills course in facilitating subsequent performance in the specific skills of badminton.
