  • The structure of flexibility based on combined resluts of different measurement procedures
    Pistotnik, Borut
    The main purpose of the study is to define and check the flexibility field while using different measurement procedures for the same areas of male body. The date were gathered on sample of 236 male ... students of the University of Ljubljana, who were all between 21 and 22 years of age. Flexibility was measured through fifteen tasks, all requirung wide amplitudes of movement in the area of the shoulder, trunk and hip joint. The amplitudes were measured using three different procedures: linear and angular measures with usding a gravity goniometer and a classical two-prong goniometer. In this case we udes measures for measuring flexibility. Most of the used measures of flexibility proved to be quite reliable (classical and contemporary coefficients of reliability). All factors structures (direct oblimin and the GK criterion for factor extraction) obtained throuhg different measurement procedures were defined by latent dimensions, which are topologically oriented towards joints and wider sorrounding areas, and precisely defined by the action and space characteristics of the movements. The different measurement procedures udes for the same movement tasks give nearly the same forms of flexibility and all measures combined, processed in the second-stage factor analysis, resulted in practically the same form of flexibility field as well. On the basis of the gathered it can be said that the flexibility field is nearly the same, irrespective of the measurement procedure, but the original results of different measurement procedures gave various information about the flexibility in the same areas of the human body.
