Chasey, William C., Jr.; And Others – Research Quarterly, 1976
The stabilometer computerized analog recording system (SCARS) provides for storing analog and digital information on a single channel audio tape recorder at lower cost and greater versatility than other systems. (MB)
Descriptors: Measurement Instruments, Psychomotor Skills
Rikli, Roberta – Research Quarterly, 1974
Forty-eight men and women were tested in grip strength and hand steadiness. There were no significant interaction effects between the sex of the experimenter and the sex of the subject on either task. (Author)
Descriptors: Muscular Strength, Psychomotor Skills, Sex Differences
Ridenour, Marcella – Research Quarterly, 1974
This article discussed an apparatus to measure the variables of size, speed, distance, direction, and height on body movement patterns. (JS)
Descriptors: Athletics, Motion, Physical Education, Psychomotor Skills
Cochran, Barbara J. – Research Quarterly, 1975
In this study, it was determined that the fatigue state of the learner had a favorable influence on both performance and learning of certain novel motor skills. (JS)
