The development of physical fitness and predictive test norms for sixth grade boys and an item analysis of the test events used

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The purpose of this study was to establish norms for sixth grade boys in the Harmon Physical Fitness Test and the Knox Test of Basketball Ability. In addition each item was to be correlated against each other item to determine the validity of the entire battery. These test items were selected because they required no expensive equipment and were administrated in a very short time.
