| Abstract: |
The article presents a study on the consistency of motor performance of an individual in the test series which shows the relative position of the individual in the group. It presents the three cases in the tests for girls wherein certain individuals maintain a consistent superior position in all tests. It also cites three cases which demonstrate relatively low motor performance but which differ widely in growth and maturity classification. It also presents the five cases in boys who show the maintenance of the same relative group position throughout the tests. It also shows the influence of physical size and growth on the motor performance of boys. |
