It was noticed that self-appreciation and sociometric status of basketball players influence not just sporting results and achievements but also relations with team members, other people, as well as athletes’ self-criticism, requirements for themselves, viewpoint towards achievements and rots, their status in the team and a sense of self-value. That prompted to perform an empiric research confirming or denying coherence of self-value sense and sociometric status in the group. On that base we have analysed self appreciation of various performance basketball players (n=38) and sociometric statuses. Results show that majority of various performance athletes estimate themselves adequately. Estimate means of sociometric statuses of various performance teams do not differ statistically neither in sport nor in leisure activity. Thus it is not possible to state that there is a direct coherence between self-appreciation sense of various performance basketball players and sociometric status.

Tyrimo tikslas – nustatyti įvairias golfo mosto kinematines charakteristikas, jų tarpusavio sąsajas ir ryšį su žaidėjų meistriškumu. Tyrimo uždaviniai: 1. Palyginti mažo ir vidutinio meistriškumo golfo žaidėjų mosto kinematines charakteristikas smūgiuojant dviem skirtingomis lazdomis. 2. Nustatyti tirtų kinematinių rodiklių tarpusavio sąsajas ir ryšį su golfo žaidėjų meistriškumu. Rezultatai Mažo meistriškumo (MM) grupės medinės lazdos Nr. 1 (M1) galvutės greitis buvo 140,6 km/h, o vidutinio meistriškumo (VM) – 156,6 km/h. Mojant tiek geležine lazda Nr. 7 (G7), tiek M1 lazdomis VM grupės riešo ulnarinio lenkimo kampinio greičio vidurkiai buvo 1270,3 ir 1302,3 l./s atitinkamai, o MM – 1113,0 bei 1160,5 l./s. Taip pat mosto atgal fazių trukmė VM grupės smūgiuojant abiem lazdomis buvo ilgesnė, o mosto fazių santykiai didesni. Išvados: 1. Smūgiuojant medine lazda Nr. 1 vidutinio meistriškumo grupės atstovų reikšmingai didesnis buvo lazdos galvutės greitis, riešo ulnarinio lenkimo kampinis greitis, smūgiuoto kamuoliuko atstumas, mosto fazių santykis, patikimai ilgesnė mosto atgal fazės trukmė negu mažo meistriškumo golfininkų. 2. Smūgiuojant geležine lazda Nr. 7 vidutinio meistriškumo grupės atstovų patikimai didesnis buvo plaštakų greitis, riešo ulnarinio lenkimo kampinis greitis, smūgiuoto kamuoliuko atstumas, mosto fazių santykis, reikšmingai ilgesnė mosto atgal fazės trukmė. 3. Smūgiuojant geležine lazda Nr. 7 nustatytas stiprus teigiamas ryšys tarp nuokrypio nuo mosto...

Tasks of the research: 1. To compare the kinematic characteristics of swing of low and middle skill golfers with two different golf clubs. 2. To identify the interrelation among investigated kinematic parameters‘ interfaces and the correlation with the golfers’ skills. Results. Low skill group’s driver head speed was 140,6 km/h, and the average skill group’s ¬– 156,6 km/h. Swinging 7 iron and driver average skill group ulnar wrist flexion angular velocity averages were 1270,3 and 1302,3 d./sec, respectively, and low skill – 1113,0 and 1160,5 d./sec. Additionally backswing phase duration of average skill group with both clubs were longer and had bigger swing phase ratio. Conclusions: 1. Swing with driver were significantly higher in the average skill group in regards to the club‘s head speed, ulnar wrist flexion angular velocity, ball distance, swing phase ratio and significantly longer backswing phase duration in comparison to the low skill golfers. 2. Swing with 7 iron were significantly higher in the average skill group in regards to the hand speed, ulnar wrist flexion angular velocity, ball distance, swing phase ratio and significantly longer duration of the backswing phase. 3. Swing with the 7 iron club show a strong positive relation between the deviation from swing path and angle of the club head. During the swing with... [to full text]
