SOUSA, V.M.L. Validation and adaptation of the circuit "Wiener Koordinationsparcours" (WKP) among 12 to 14 years old Orientadora: Profa. Dra. Maria Tereza Silveira Böhme Coordinative capabilities play a crucial role in motor function, being important in the acquisition and development of fundamental skills, subsequently the sport skills. These capabilities are recognized as the basis for the development of sports skills that responds positively in relation to the accuracy and effectiveness in the sporting movements. It is in childhood that we observe the best gain in efficiency in these capabilities, stabilizing in adolescence. Despite the importance of coordinative abilities, there is a lack of evaluation tests that can provide information about their income on children and youth. The "Wiener Koordinationsparcour" (WKP) of Warwitz is a sporty test of international origin, which measures the coordinative capabilities of spatial orientation, reaction, balance, motor adaptation and differentiation through time to perform the tasks specified in the eight steps that compose the test. Because the origin of the WKP its validation for the Brazilian reality is required. This study aims to validate the adapted WKP adapt it assess the coordinative abilities in students 12-14 years old. The study included eight experts in the field of Physical Education and Sport and 108 students 12-14 years of both sexes. The validation process consisted of the following steps: cross-cultural adaptation, content and construct validity and verification of the criteria of validity, objectivity and reliability. A cross-cultural adaptation and translation of the original instrument name by calling it, Percurso de Coordenação de Viena (PCV). The construct validity and content was analyzed by experts through the PCV Manual. In addition, two (02) forms on the adapted test were filled. To verify the objectivity score time the test was performed by three (03) assessors; reliability score in the test-retest was used. We used descriptive statistics to analyze the frequency responses of the experts, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used in the analysis of objectivity and reliability were made also to verify the reliability the paired t-test. The results of the objectivity of the 0,999 test in females and 1.00 in males indicated that PCV is a reliable test. However, the reliability coefficients presented were considered low: 0.61 (female) and 0.58 (men). The paired t-test confirmed that the low reliability was due to differences in scores between test and retest. For expert analysis PCV presents construct validity and content. Motivation and learning influenced the test scores and, consequently, on its reliability. Thus, despite the fact that PCV test reflects the content validity and is reliable, other studies are needed in Brazilian schoolchildren aged 12 to 14 years.
