Abstract

Endurance is an important component in physical fitness which is needed in futsal, because this game requires repetitive activities with varying intensities so that players must be able to maintain optimal performance. However, there are still many futsal extracurricular students who experience rapid fatigue and decreased performance, so effective training methods are needed to increase endurance. This study aims to analyzed the influence and difference in the effectiveness of interval training and circuit training in increasing the endurance of futsal extracurricular students at the junior high school level. The method used is quantitative with a quasi-experimental design through a two-group pretest-posttest approach, which involves two groups. The participants amounted to 22 male students aged 13-15 years from State Junior High School 1 Conggeang who were divided into two groups, each given interval training and circuit training for 12 meetings. The instrument used is a multistage fitness test (bleep test) to measure VO₂max as an indicator of cardiovascular endurance. Data analysis was carried out using the help of SPSS 27 through descriptive tests, normality tests, homogeneity tests, and t tests. The results showed that there was an increase in the average value of endurance in both groups, where the circuit training group increased from 35,845 to 38,645, while the interval training group increased from 36,082 to 39,000. The paired sample t-test showed that both exercise methods had a significant effect on increasing endurance (p < 0.05). However, the results of the independent samples t-test showed no significant difference between the two methods (p = 0.671 > 0.05). Thus, it can be concluded that interval training and circuit training are both effective in increasing endurance, but do not show significant differences in effectiveness. This study provides the implication that both training methods can be used flexibly in fostering students' physical fitness, especially in futsal extracurricular activities.

Abstract

This study is based on the fact that elementary school-aged children frequently use gadgets, which can impact their motor skills and the quality of movement in daily life. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between electronic device use and the psychomotor abilities of first-grade elementary school students, as well as the contribution of electronic device use to psychomotor development. The study also examined the frequency of children's use of electronic devices. This may impact the balance between digital and physical activity, both of which are important components of child development. This study used a quantitative correlational approach and an ex post facto design. The study involved 60 randomly selected students from Pasir Biru and Cikeusik Elementary Schools. The TGMD2 Test of Gross Motor Development, Second Edition was used to assess students' psychomotor abilities. A questionnaire was also used to measure the level of device use. The data were then analyzed using SPSS version 25 to conduct descriptive statistical analysis, normality tests, Spearman correlation tests, and linear regression analyses. The results of the study showed a negative relationship between device use and psychomotor abilities, but this relationship was not statistically significant, with a correlation coefficient of -0.028. Furthermore, the analysis showed that the contribution of device use to psychomotor abilities was relatively low. This suggests that many other factors outside the study were more influential, such as physical activity, the play environment, and parenting styles. Therefore, it can be concluded that device use is not an important or primary factor influencing students' psychomotor abilities. Therefore, efforts to maximize students' psychomotor development should focus on increasing physical activity and controlling device use wisely and in a balanced manner in everyday life.

Abstract

Gymnastics is a closed-skill sport that demands an extremely high level of movement precision, complex routines, and full concentration. In the context of elite competition, the ability to make quick and accurate decisions is often associated with the athletes' mental toughness when facing high pressure from judges and performance expectations. This study aimed to empirically examine the effect of mental toughness on decision-making skills in elite gymnasts. This research used a correlational quantitative approach. The subjects were the entire population of 11 athletes from the West Java Student Sports Education and Training Center (PPLP) for gymnastics, selected using the total sampling technique. Data were collected systematically using the standardized Sports Mental Toughness Questionnaire (SMTQ), which measures confidence, constancy, and control, alongside an adapted decision-making questionnaire by Leykin & DeRubeis. Descriptive statistical analysis revealed a homogeneous phenomenon, where the majority of athletes (72.7%) had uniform levels of mental toughness and decision-making skills in the medium category. Based on the Shapiro-Wilk normality prerequisite test, the data distribution was partially not normal. Therefore, hypothesis testing was carried out using Kendall's Tau-b non-parametric statistical analysis. The test results showed a correlation coefficient of -0.200 with a significance value (p-value) of 0.420 (p > 0.05). These results conclude that statistically, there is no significant effect of mental toughness on decision-making skills in West Java PPLP gymnasts. These in-depth findings indicate that in closed-skill sports such as gymnastics, elite-level athletes tend to have reached an established stage of movement automation. Therefore, the effectiveness of decision-making in the field is dominated more by technical maturity and internalized muscle memory repetition, rather than by independent fluctuations in psychological variables.

Abstract

The precise direction of a smash is an essential ability in badminton that must be cultivated from a young age. Nonetheless, numerous athletes aged 10 to 12 continue to experience difficulties with precise smash direction. Consequently, right-left smash workouts are essential for enhancing this skill. This study seeks to ascertain the baseline accuracy of athletes' smash direction abilities prior to the implementation of training interventions, hence establishing the fundamental skill level of the athletes. This study employs a quantitative technique utilising a pre-experimental design, especially a one-group pretest-posttest framework, to examine the effect of right-left smash training on smash direction accuracy in PB Sampoerna badminton competitors aged 10 to 12 years. The training occurred at PB. Sampoerna event in the North Sumedang District, Sumedang Regency, includes 20 participants aged 10 to 12 years, who were selected as research participants through a saturated sampling method. The research procedure includes initial measurements (pretest), providing treatment in the form of right-left smash. The results of the normality test show that the significance value (p-value) of the pretest data is 0.055, while the significance value of the posttest data is 0.569. Both significance scores exceed 0.05 (p > 0.05), indicating that the pretest and posttest data are regularly distributed. The statistical analysis of the paired sample t-test yielded a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000. This value is less than the designated significance level (α = 0.05). This indicates that the right-left smash drill training pattern has a significant effect. Systematic and repetitive practice has demonstrated enhancements in motor coordination, shot consistency, and shuttlecock directional control, leading to increased accuracy in smashes for athletes. The right-left smash training pattern is a useful technique for enhancing smash skills, especially directional precision, in young athletes.

Abstract

Hypertension affects 50-60% of the elderly population due to a decrease in the physiological function of blood vessels that are at risk of causing cardiovascular complications. Blood pressure control is not only carried out with antihypertensive drugs, but also requires a non-pharmacological approach. One of the efforts that can be made is elderly gymnastics. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of elderly gymnastics on the reduction of systolic and diastolic blood pressure in elderly with hypertension, both those who take antihypertensive drugs and those who do not, at Wisma Lansia J. Soenarti Nasution. This study uses a quantitative approach with an ex post facto design. The study subjects amounted to 20 elderly people with a total sampling technique. Blood pressure measurement was carried out using a digital sphygmomanometer after the implementation of elderly gymnastics during the period from September – December. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and the Mann-Whitney non-parametric test. The results of the analysis show the value of Asymp.Sig.(2-tailed) of 0.000 (p < 0.05) across systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements in each period, indicating a statistically significant difference. Elderly gymnastics was shown to have a blood pressure lowering and stabilizing effect in both groups, with blood pressure relatively lower in the group without the consumption of antihypertensive drugs. Elderly gymnastics has a significant effect on blood pressure control in the elderly with hypertension, both as non-pharmacological intervention and as a complementary therapy to antihypertensive treatment. These findings support the sustainable intergration of elderly gymnastics in elderly health programs.

Abstract

Top spin is an important technique in table tennis that requires targeted training with the right media, but the effectiveness of various training media such as robopong, spinwheel, and return board in improving top spin accuracy has not been studied much comparatively. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the influence provided by the media or training tools (robopong, spinwheel and return board) on improving the accuracy of top spin strokes in table tennis. The research method used in this study is Quasi-Experimental Design: Pretest–Posttest Nonequivalent Groups Design, where the sample will be divided into three groups by starting with pretest data collection then treatment in groups for 12 meetings and ending with a posttest. The sample consisted of 15 active members of the Table Tennis Student Activity Units  UPI Sumedang Campus, the sample selection was carried out using a purposive sampling technique which was then continued with a group division technique using the Matching-Only Design technique. The results of the study showed that there was a significant influence of the three media or training tools on improving the accuracy of top spin strokes in table tennis, however, the post-hoc test showed no significant difference between the three training media on improving the accuracy of top spin strokes in table tennis. So it can be concluded that the three training media have an effect on increasing the accuracy of top spin strokes in table tennis, but there is no significant difference. The three research groups have a relatively similar level in increasing the accuracy of top spin strokes, although the average for each group is different, but it is not enough to show significant effectiveness in influencing the accuracy of top spin in the sport of table tennis.

Abstract

Mental factors play an important role in determining athlete performance; however, the mental development of squash athletes at the KONI Bandung City is still not fully structured, resulting in problems such as low self-confidence and competitive anxiety. This study aims to understand the mental coaching pattern of squash coaches of KONI Bandung City, the strategies used, and its impact on athletes' confidence with a qualitative approach of case study design through interviews, observations, and documentation on two coaches and eleven athletes. The results showed that mental coaching was carried out in an integrated manner with physical and technical aspects through humanist and adaptive approaches, such as match simulation, emotion regulation, personal communication, and self-talk. The observational findings showed optimal achievement in physical readiness and resilience (100%), while cognitive and motivational aspects were in the range of 54%–72%, which showed a variation in athletes' mental stability. In conclusion, structured and sustainable mental coaching is effective in increasing athletes' confidence and mental resilience, but it is still necessary to strengthen the cognitive aspects and mental independence so that athletes' performance is more stable and optimal.

Abstract

Dribbling skills are one of the basic techniques that are important in the game of football because they play a role in possession, passing opponents, and creating attack opportunities. However, effective practice methods are still needed to improve students' dribbling skills. This study aims to determine the effect of triangular pattern dribbling practice on students' dribbling skills, the effect of number eight pattern dribbling practice on students' dribbling skills, and to compare the difference in the influence of the two practice methods in improving dribbling skills in football matches. The research method used was an experiment with a pretest and posttest design. The research subjects were divided into two groups, namely the triangle pattern dribbling  practice group  and the eight-digit pattern dribbling practice group. Data collection was carried out through Dribbling  ability tests  before treatment (pretest) and after treatment (posttest). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality test, homogeneity test, and t test. The results of the study showed that both training methods were able to improve  students' dribbling skills  . In  the  triangle pattern dribbling practice group  , an average pretest score of 9.37 and a posttest score of 8.86 were obtained. Meanwhile, in the Dribbling  training group,  eight patterns were obtained with an average pretest score of 9.67 and 9.03 posttest. These results show that  triangle  pattern dribbling  exercises  provide better improvement than  eight-digit pattern dribbling exercises. Thus, both training methods are effective in improving students  ' dribbling skills  in football matches.

Abstract

Menstrual cycle fluctuations shape the physiological and psychological landscape of female athletes, yet self-efficacy a central construct in sport psychology remains under-theorized at this intersection. Comprehensive synthesis integrating bibliometric trends with systematic evidence is absent. This study conducted a bibliometric-systematic literature review examining menstrual cycle effects on self-efficacy in female athletes from 2010 to April 2026. We analyzed 1,446 peer-reviewed articles from 809 Scopus-indexed journals using bibliometrix (R) version 4.1.4 and igraph. Quality assessment employed a hybrid instrument integrating CASP, Cochrane RoB 2.0, JBI, and a menstrual-cycle-specific criterion (κ=0.82). Six research questions addressed cycle-phase effects, measurement validity, sport-discipline variance, cultural moderators, age-level differences, and policy implications. Publication output grew exponentially from 35 articles in 2010 to 245 in 2025 (annual growth rate 5.22%), with 59.6% concentrated in 2021-2026. Logistic modeling projected peak productivity at 2026.4 (R²=0.660). Geographic concentration in North America and Europe reached 78.1%; Southeast Asia showed near-zero representation. Five thematic clusters emerged: Physiological-Hormonal, Applied Sports Activity, Psychosocial Factors, Reproductive Health, and Methodological. Of 1,446 articles, 167 (11.5%) satisfied all four core constructs (menstruation × athlete × female × self-efficacy). A central paradox emerged: 52.1% discussed self-efficacy or confidence, but only 4.7% used "self-efficacy" as an explicit keyword. Self-efficacy declined in menstrual and late-luteal phases and peaked in late-follicular phase (d=0.15-0.45). Hormonal-confirmation methods produced smaller effect sizes than calendar self-report, revealing over-estimation bias in pre-2019 literature. Aesthetic sports showed highest sensitivity; team sports lowest. Methodological quality rose from 6.2/10 (2010-2015) to 8.2/10 (2021-2026). The field stands at a growth-to-maturity transition with substantial opportunities in non-Western contexts. We propose three integrative frameworks: a Biopsychosocial Self-Efficacy Model, a Cultural-Hormonal Interaction Model, and a Measurement-Validity Framework. Future research should prioritize longitudinal designs with culturally diverse populations, particularly from Southeast Asia.
