The Effects Of Three Types Of Verbal Feedback On The Form And Accuracy Of A Tennis Volley, Sylvia Goethal Sep 1978

The Effects Of Three Types Of Verbal Feedback On The Form And Accuracy Of A Tennis Volley, Sylvia Goethal

Graduate Theses

This study was designed to test the effects of three kinds of verbal feedback on the form and accuracy of a tennis forehand volley. Four groups (corrective, positive, positive-corrective, and control), each composed of ten eighth-grade female students, were given a pre-test, an appropriate treatment, and a post-test. During the pre- and post-tests, subjects were tested simultaneously for form and accuracy. Accuracy was measured by placement of the volleys into court sections marked with different point values. Form was determined by a panel of trained judges who compared the subjects' tennis volley with a form criterion sheet prepared by the …
