The effect of an innovative device for conducting a sitting test from lying down for students applying for admission to the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences

Abstract

The sitting test for students applying for admission to the College of Physical Education and Sports Science takes a lot of effort, time and cost through the number of staff needed to take the test to catch the testers and calculate the number of times the test is conducted. The research aims to design an innovative device and know its effect in conducting the sitting test from prone and suppose that the innovative device has an effect in conducting and achieving the sitting test from prone, taking into account saving effort, time and accuracy in performance.

The researchers have used the descriptive approach to suit the nature of the research. The research community was selected on the students of the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences (third stage), as the sample was chosen in an intentional way. ) Student.

 The device prepared by the researchers was used, as the device contains two bars, the first is used to fix the feet on the ground, and the second is used for the purpose of bending the knees in a streamlined manner that fulfills the conditions of the test. During the performance, where the device was made for a number that can accommodate two testers, and it is possible to make any possible number after the success of the device for the purpose for which it was placed, and the device in general can be installed in two ways, the first on the ground and the second on the wall, where the number of attempts made by the laboratory is calculated automatically. Note: - The device works in two ways (electricity - external countertop). The counter keeps the number of attempts even after the power is cut off. The researchers concluded that the manufactured device has an impact on the method used to calculate the number of successful attempts in the sitting test from lying down, including the characteristics of a good test in terms of saving time, effort and cost. We mean the experimental group.
