Abstract The purpose of the study was to develop a battery of tennis skills tests in a manner that would serve as a model for test construction. A series of 12 procedures was outlined and followed in the construction of forehand drive, backhand drive, and service tests of accuracy in placement for novice tennis players, referred to as the TTA (Tennis Tests of Achievement). The planning and formulation of the TTA were based on: (a) knowledge of tennis authorities including recommended drive and service teaching progressions and methods of practice; (b) strengths and deficiencies in existing tennis skills tests; and (c) results of pilot procedures relating to the nature of the tests. A circular target was created to provide an objective method of measuring accuracy in drive and service placement. Male volunteers (N = 64) at the beginning level of tennis ability participated in an appraisal of the tests. Reliability coefficients, ascertained by the test-retest method, were .80 for the service test, .67 for f...

Abstract A revision of the Plummer attitude inventory and a background information questionnaire were administered to 1,126 freshman college women enrolled in the private four-year colleges in Iowa in September 1964. Attitude scores were determined and comparisons were made on the basis of background information. Significant differences in attitude toward physical education were found between those earning interscholastic athletic letters and those not earning letters, those participating in organized physical activity programs outside of school and those not participating in such programs, those from farms and those from cities, those from small high school graduating classes and those from large high school graduating classes, those who chose teaching careers and those who chose other careers, those who ratedselves above average in physical skills and those who ratedselves below average in physical skills, and those who enjoyedr high school physical education programs and those who did not.

Abstract Heart rate response to exercise and recovery after exercise were studied analytically on the basis that any energy extracted from a muscle must ultimately be supplied by oxidation. Any discrepancy between oxygen supply rate and equivalent oxygen consumption rate was assumed to be made up by utilizing a finite reserve; thus allowing supply to lag consumption at the onset of exercise. Heart rate was assumed and experimentally demonstrated to be linearly related to oxygen supply rate during both steady-state and the transition period after exercise starts or stops. During recovery the withdrawals from reserves are repaid as heart rate returns to normal. Consideration of these factors resulted in an exponential heart rate response equation which closely agreed with observations. Coefficients, evaluated from experimental data, gave average time constants of 1.2 to 1.7 sec. with recovery being slower than response to exercise. Integration of this equation over the exercise range gave an estimate of the...

Abstract The research was undertaken to determine if an increase in the duration of a sustained voluntary isometric contraction is more closely related to changes in cardiovascular endurance or changes in strength. Subjects (N = 24) were tested before and after a training program to determine their endurance (oxygen consumption) and strength. The training program consisted of one daily sustained voluntary isometric contraction of the left forearm flexors at a prescribed percentage of the subject's maximum isometric strength. When the mean duration of contractions for each group showed a significant increase, training ceased. The groups which trained with contractions of 50, 75, and 100 percent of a maximum voluntary contraction showed significant increases in strength, but not in endurance. The group which trained with a 25 percent contraction increased significantly in endurance, but not in strength. The increased duration of contractions at percentages greater than or equal to 50 percent of a maximum vo...
