description | The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of
visual skills on motor performance of soccer players in Ethiopian youth sport
academy. Cross-sectional study design was employed and 62 subjects (28 male and
34 female) were participated using purposive and availability sampling methods.
The primary sources of data such as demographic characteristics, the visual
skill tests and motor performance were measured. The results presented as mean
± SD, and Frequency proportions were used to show the visual skill status. A
Multivariate Roy’s Largest Root Tests was used to examine the impacts of visual
skills on motor performance and one way ANOVA was used to show the difference
of visual skills and motor performance in playing positions. Whereas, Pearson
product moment correlation coefficient was used to test the relationship
between visual skills and motor performances. SPSS version 20 software was used
to analyze the data and the significance values set at p-value 0.05 levels to
all statistical analysis. The result indicates that 26(42%) of players had no
color blindness, 32(52%) had some degree of color blindness and 4(6%) of them
had weak color blindness status. There was significant
differences of eye foot coordination test between playing position in score of F
= 3.669, P lt; 0.05 (0.017). Color blindness
has a positive significant correlation with motor performance in reaction time
(r = 0.343, r2 = 0.1176, P lt; 0.01). Based on the result the
researcher concluded that there was significant difference in eye foot coordination
between playing positions. Color blindness significantly and positively
correlated with motor performance to reaction time. And also visual acuity
significantly and positively correlated with motor performance to eye hand
coordination. |
