Reakcijski časi v športu : magistrsko delo

Delić, Edvin (author), Tušak, Matej (mentor), Kajtna, Tanja (co-mentor)

Namen tega magistrskega dela je bil predstaviti teoretične osnove reakcijskega časa, preveriti merske karakteristike aplikacije MAReaction za tablične računalnike; opredeliti norme za uporabljene teste ter primerjati razlike v reakcijskih časih med skupinami (med spoloma, levičarji in desničarji, rekreativnimi in vrhunskimi športniki ter med študenti različnih smeri študija na Fakulteti za šport). V raziskavo smo vključili 163 študentov Fakultete za šport vseh smeri študija( športna vzgoja N=127, kineziologija N=29 in športno treniranje N=7). Sodelovala sta oba spola (ženske N= 76 in moški N=87) v razponu starosti 20-36let (M=22; SD=2,509), kot ostale spremenljivke pa smo vzeli še način ukvarjanja s športom (vrhunski N=22 in rekreativni N=141) ter ali je posameznik desničar ali levičar (desničarji N=150 in levičarji N=13). Uporabili smo tablični računalnik in aplikacijo MAReaction, ustvarjeno v namen ugotavljanja reakcijskega časa, ki se imenuje MAReaction (2017). S pomočjo programov Excel in SPSS pa smo opravili analizo. Delovanje aplikacije MAReaction je bilo potrjeno, uspeli smo tudi postaviti norme za uporabljene teste, primerjave pa so pokazale različne rezultate. Med spoloma smo našli statistično značilne razlike, med levičarji in desničarji teh razlik nismo našli, kot tudi ne med različnimi smermi študija na Fakulteti za šport, primerjava med vrhunskimi in rekreativnimi športniki pa je pokazala statistično značilne razlike pri enem od dveh testov.

Abstract

The purpose of this master’s thesis was to define reaction time, to verify whether an application measuring reaction time for smart devices, named MAReaction works accurately, to set standards for the tests used; to compare reaction times between the sexes, right and left-handers and students of various fields of study on Faculty of sports in Slovenia. The study included 163 students at the faculty of sports in all fields of study. (Sports education N = 127, kinesiology N = 29 and sports training N = 7). The study included both sexes (women N = 76 and men N = 87) with age range 20-36 years-old (M = 22; SD = 2.509). We also examined the differences amongst competitive (competitive N = 22 and recreational N = 141) athletes and amongst people who are (right-handed (N = 150 and left-handed N = 13). We used a tablet and application for measuring reaction time called MAReaction (2017) and with the help of Excel and SPSS we conducted an analysis. Our results determined that the application worked properly and we were able to set norms for our tests. Our comparative tests showed that there were statistically significant differences amongst males and females. Our comparison of right-handed and left-handed individuals did not show significant results moreover neither did our comparison of students from different fields of study within the college. The comparison of between professional and recreational athletes showed some significant differences in one out of two tests.
