The main aim of this research was to determine to which degree the system of variables used to evaluate specific motor skills correlated with the system of variables used to evaluate successful performance in football play. The study was conducted on a sample of 170 senior football players. There were 16 predictor variables to assess specific motor skills and eight criterion variables to assess successful performance. A canonical correlation analysis was applied in the statistical procedure to determine the relationships (correlations) between these spaces. Correlations were established between the investigated spaces with four pairs of canonical factors, and it has been shown that situational motor skills have high correlations with performance success in the game of football (Can R.=0.71, on average). It is indicated that the participants whose performance in football play was more successful also had better situational motor skills and that the mechanism for structuring movement is shown to be of great importance for the successful performance of tactical and technical elements in football players.

The aim of this research was to establish a relationship between motor skills and performance of gymnastic elements on the floor routine and vault. A battery of 22 motor skills tests was assessed on the sample of 36 male subjects, students of Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, all of whom took the course “Sport Gymnastics 1”. The subjects were evaluated by an expert commission in the performance of the selected elements on the floor routine (side-to-side and front-to-back cartwheel, roundoff, front and back handspring, forward and backward flip) and the vault (squat through on the vault and straddle vault with pre-flight, front handspring on vault, roundoff vault). The overall results of the canonical correlation analysis indicated to the evaluation of the applied canonical model on motor tests in relation to the performance of gymnastic elements, to the canonical correlation value of 0.998 with the Chi-Square test value of 320.11, and to statistically significant correlation of used variables on level p .00280. Through further analysis, 10 canonical roots were extracted, out of which only the first one was statistically significant (p .002). Through observation of data on the correlation between motor variables and canonical roots, it can be concluded that the standing triple jump variable and the lying medicine ball throw variable have the highest projection on the canonical factor, and thus are also most significant in conditioning the results achieved. Variables of coordination, figure eight running drill with bending under rope, lateral shuffle, agility on the floor, and agility in the air, all indicate to negative projection on the first isolated canonical factor, as do the two flexibility tests, shoulder and chest opener with rod and standing shoulder extension, pointing to the fact that the subjects with lower degree of those motor skills have also had lower performance of specific gymnastic elements. Regarding the criterion variables, the results show that the front-to-back cartwheel variable had the biggest projection, while the variables side-to-side cartwheel, back handspring, backward flip, squat through on the vault with pre-flight, and roundoff vault had almost the same projection on the first canonical root, indicating the need for greater engagement of motor skills in performing the aforementioned elements.

The aim of this research was to establish a relationship between motor skills andperformance of specific elements in handball. A battery of 18 motor skills tests was assessed on thesample of 58 male subjects, students of Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, aged 21-23years.Variables of coordination, figure eight running drill with bending under rope, lateral shuffle,agility on the floor, and agility in the air, all indicate to negative projection on the first isolatedcanonical factor, as do the two flexibility tests, shoulder and chest opener with rod and standingshoulder extension were applied as predictor variables and two tests dribbling around thecones (Metikoš and al. 1989) and throwing the ball against the wall (Rogulj and al. 1995).Theoverall results of the canonical correlation analysis indicated to the evaluation of the appliedcanonical model on motor tests in relation to the performance of specific handball elements,to the canonical correlation value of 0.765, with the Chi-Square test value of 320.101, and tostatistically significant correlation of used variables on level p .008. Through further analysis,4 canonical roots were extracted, out of which only the first one was statistically significant (p.008). Through observation of data on the correlation between motor variables and canonicalroots, it can be concluded that the MRCZTL (0.58) and MFEBML (0.56)variables have thehighest projection on the canonical factor, and thus are also most significant in conditioningthe results achieved. Also the MAGKUS (0.55), MBFTAP (0.51) and MBAU1Z (0.51)variables has statisticaly significant results in conditioning the results achieved.Results of thisanalisys are ppointing to the fact that the subjects with lower degree of those motor skills havealso had lower performance of specific handball elements, indicating the need for greater engagementof motor skills in performing the aforementioned elements.

This study examined the relationship between perfectionism and goal orientations among male Canadian Football players (M age = 18.24 years). Athletes (N = 174) completed inventories to assess perfectionist orientations and goal orientations in sport. Perfectionism was conceptualized as a multidimensional construct and was measured with a newly constructed sport-specific version of the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS; Frost, Marten, Lahart, & Rosenblate, 1990). Exploratory factor analysis of the modified MPS revealed four sport-related perfectionism dimensions: perceived parental pressure, personal standards, concern over mistakes, and perceived coach pressure. Canonical correlation analysis obtained two significant canonical functions (RC1 = .36; RC2 = .30). The first one revealed that task orientation was positively correlated with an adaptive profile of perfectionism. The second one revealed that ego orientation was positively associated with a maladaptive profile of perfectionism. Results are discussed in the context of Hamachek’s (1978) conceptualization of adaptive and maladaptive perfectionism.

The Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory is a 175-item psychodiagnostic instrument which is based on Millon's theory of psychopathology, in which Millon suggests clinical symptoms result from an exacerbation of an individual's personality style when under stress. The purpose of the present study was to examine the relations of personality disorders to clinical symptoms as measured by the inventory. The sample of 245 inpatients from a state psychiatric hospital completed the Millon inventory between January, 1987 and April. 1989 Stepwise multiple-regression analyses were conducted to ascertain the relationship between personality disorders and symptoms. The 9 clinical symptom scales served as criterion variables while the personality-disorder scales served as predictor variables. The results were generally consistent with expectation and are discussed in terms of Millon's theory.

This study examined the relative contribution of obvious and subtle item endorsement to the prediction of several clinical process and outcome variables. Wiener and Harmon's 1946 subtle and obvious subscales on the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory were used as predictor variables. Using a clinical population of 25 clients and 22 therapists as subjects, several subtle subscale scores accounted for unique variance in the prediction of several of the criterion variables. The obvious items also provided unique information about the relationship between MMPI scores and some of the criterion variables.

This research aimed to determine the relationship between motor skills and the precision of shooting in handball. A battery of 21 motor tests was applied to a sample of 36 male subjects aged 20-22 years. Criteria variables were selected representing shots from the position with 7m and 9m and jump shots with 9m. The general results of the canonical analysis indicated a canonical correlation value of 0.974, with the HI value of the test square being 114.44 and a statistically significant correlation of the variables used at the p .042 level. 3 canonical roots were obtained of which only the first showed statistical significance p .042. Observing the correlations of the variables used, it can be said that the motor abilities of explosive power, agility and coordination discriminated respondents results in performing situational-motor tasks. The results of the analysis of the criterion variables indicate that the largest projection on the first canonical root is shown by the variable 9mSKOK (0.739), and the variables 9mSTAV (0.484) and 7mSTAV (0.043). The obtained results confirm the positive relation of the situational motor ability of the shot precision with the level tested motor abilities, ie. a higher level of motor skills of agility and coordination, repetitive and explosive power is directly related to the success of performing a shot on goal from the positions used.

Background: ‪Despite having similar requirements to regular football, amputee football may also require different dynamics due to using crutches. This study investigated the relationship between upper extremity strength and performance in amputee players. Material and methods: ‪Twenty amputee players participated in this study. Running performance of amputee players was measured with sprint tests; aerobic performance with a shuttle run test; jumping performance with a one-leg hop test and upper extremity strength with a digital dynamometer. The relationship between the types of performance was evaluated by multiple regression analysis. Results: T‪he 10 (p = 0.009) and 20 meters sprint performance (p = 0.035) was associated with latissimus dorsi muscle and the 30 meters (p=0.030) with shoulder extension strength. In addition, 10 (p = 0.018), 20 (p = 0.020) and 30 meters sprint performance (p=0.036) was associated with one-leg hop performance. However, there were no related data with the max VO2 (p = 0.339), and the aerobic performance test duration (p = 0.348). Conclusions: ‪The results indicated that the sprinting performance of amputee players was not only related with lower extremity strength but also with upper extremity strength. It may be beneficial to include shoulder extension and particularly latissimus dorsi strengthening exercises in training programs of amputee football players to provide an increase in anaerobic performance.
