Abstract | ||
The study aimed to: - Constructing a scale of cognitive functions for volleyball players. - To identify the level of cognitive functions of volleyball players. - Setting standard levels for measuring the special cognitive functions of volleyball players. The two researchers used the descriptive approach in its survey style due to its suitability and the nature of the research. The research community included (175) players in the Iraqi Premier League in volleyball for the sports season (2022-2023), while the research sample consisted of (153) players representing approximately (87%). ) from the research community distributed over the following sports clubs: (Al-Shartahu, Sinjar, Ghaz Al-Janub, Erbil, Al-Bahri, Haditha, Madinat Al-Shuhada', Al-Jayish, Peshmerga, Masafi Al-Shamal, Habbaniyah, Al-Samoud, Heat, Al-Sinaeah) and the research sample was divided into two samples (Construction and application), where the construction sample included (90) players, about (59%) of the total sample for the research, and the building sample was chosen from the Premier League volleyball clubs randomly (Sinjar, Madinat Al-Shuhada', Ghaz Al-Janub, Al-Shartahu, Al-Sumoud, Haditha, Al-Sinaeah, Al-Habbaniyah), while the application sample included (63) players representing approximately (41%) of the total sample for the research, and they were chosen from the Iraqi Premier League clubs in volleyball (Erbil, Masafi Al-Shamal, Al-Bahri, Peshmerga, Heat, Al-Jaish) to apply the scale in its final form and extraction standards. The researchers used content analysis, questionnaires, and personal interviews as data collection methods. To build a scale of cognitive functions, the two researchers followed all the scientific steps in building the scales. The two researchers identified the areas of the cognitive functions scale and presented them to the experts, and they were represented by five axes (planning, thinking, self-regulation of emotions, focus of attention, and decision-making). It applies to me to a moderate degree, it applies to a little, it does not apply to me at all) and the alternatives were weighted by (5, 4, 3.2, 1) for the positive paragraphs and (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) for the negative paragraphs. Then the two researchers determined the validity of the items of the scale, and after completing the statistical analysis of the items of the scale, the scale of the special cognitive functions of volleyball players became ready in its final form, consisting of (33) items. The statistical means that were calculated by the statistical program (SPSS) for the research were limited to (the arithmetic mean, standard deviation, simple correlation coefficient, t-test for independent samples, chi-square test, and percentage | ||
