Issues in Setting Motor Performance Standards

Abstract
Setting motor performance standards has long been a process of interest to physical educators. Theoretical advances in the measurement technology appropriate for standard-setting, however, have occurred only in the last decade. The first portion of this paper is devoted to a discussion of issues in setting standards and a brief review of procedures for standard-setting. In the latter section, gender differences in motor performance are examined and the impact of these differences on standard-setting is considered.
