$\huge\underline\textbf\purple {Hello}$

The Barrow Motor Ability Test was developed by Dr. Harold M. Barrow in 1953 for partial fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Physical Education in the School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation at Indiana University. Dr. Barrow is now head of the Physical Edu- cation Department at Wake Forest College, Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The purpose of his study was to develop an easily administered test of motor ability of college men. The results may be used for classification, guidance, and measurement of achievement. ☺✌

The purpose of this study was to compare the overall group scores of the retesting of 196 students who failed the Barrow Motor Ability Test given to all basic physical education students at Kansas State University during the fall semester of 1966-67, with their initial scores. A second purpose was to compare the improvement maae among the swimming, weight training, and gymnastics groups. A third purpose of this study was to compare the improvement made within groups on the cri- terion measures of power, agility and strength. ⚡✨
