“…Common assessment methods include tests which assess discrete skills in isolation, such as the Test of Gross Motor Development (TGMD-3; [13]) and Movement-ABC (M-ABC; [14]). More recently, dynamic assessments have been validated, such as the Dragon Challenge [15], the Canadian Agility and Movement Skill Assessment of Physical Literacy (CAMSA; [16]), and the Athletic Skills Track [17]. The Dragon Challenge and CAMSA assess a range of combined and complex movement skills [18] through a continuous dynamic obstacle course and aim to provide a more authentic assessment environment to emulate the multi-skill and sports activities that are developmentally appropriate for older children and adolescents.…”

The aim of this study was to examine associations in motor competence between children with additional learning needs (ALN) and typically developing children. This cross-sectional study involved a nationally representative cohort of 4555 children (48.98% boys; 11.35 ± 0.65 years) from sixty-five schools across Wales (UK). Demographic data were collected from schools, and children were assessed using the Dragon Challenge assessment of motor competence, which consists of nine tasks completed in a timed circuit. A multi-nominal multi-level model with random intercept was fitted to explore the proficiency between children with ALN and those without. In all nine motor competence tasks, typically developing children demonstrated higher levels of proficiency than their peers with ALN, with these associations evident after accounting for age, sex, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. This study highlights motor competence inequalities at a population level and emphasises the need for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers to prioritise motor competence development, particularly for children with ALN.

“…Según el estudio de Hoeboer et al (2017), los resultados obtenidos después de realizar la prueba AST a un total de 463 niños/as fueron similares. Así pues, los resultados de este trabajo concuerdan con lo hallado por estos autores previamente, comprobándose también en dicho estudio que el rendimiento en este test entre los distintos grupos de edad fue alto.…”

“…Los instrumentos que se han utilizado han sido la Escala de Identificación del Talento en Educación Física (Prieto-Ayuso et al, 2022b) y un test de habilidades atléticas que evalúa las habilidades fundamentales básicas, denominado Athletic Skills Tracks (Hoeboer et al, 2017). La EITEF está formada por 25 ítems agrupados en seis capacidades principales: capacidad de aprendizaje deportivo, capacidad de actitud de trabajo, capacidad interpersonal, capacidad intelectual, capacidad creativa y capacidad motriz.…”

“…El AST está formado por un total de 10 pruebas que tienen que ser realizadas en el menor tiempo posible: (1) rastreo de cocodrilo, (2) saltos de conejo, (3) saltos móviles, (4) lanzar y atrapar una pelota, (5) patear y detener una pelota, (6) rodar hacia adelante, (7) rodar hacia atrás, (8) correr hacia atrás, (9) trepar y (10) saltar (Hoeboer et al, 2017). La Figura 2 muestra la disposición en el gimnasio del circuito de habilidades atléticas y la Figura 3 un ejemplo de cómo se realizó en el centro educativo.…”

“…Pero si por encima del resto debemos diferenciar dos instrumentos diseñados y validados para la evaluación del talento motor en EF son los siguientes (Contreras-Jordán y Prieto-Ayuso, 2022): Scale for Identification of Sport Potential (SISP) (Platvoet et al, 2015) y Athletic Skills Track (AST) (Hoeboer et al, 2017). El instrumento SISP se desarrolló basándose en las habilidades del modelo de desarrollo del talento en EF de Bailey y Morley (2006).…”

The detection of talent in sport has been a topic of interest for many researchers. However, there is a lack of research on this topic within Physical Education. The purpose of this study was to determine the agreement between two recent tests based on talent detection in Physical Education: an athletic-skills track and the Spanish Scale for the Identification of Sport Potential. A total of 205 primary school students (54.76% boys and 45.4% girls) (M = 8.37 years; SD = 1.79) participated in the study. The students with higher scores in the athletic skills test were also considered by their teachers as talented in Physical Education. Therefore, these results demonstrate that there is a relationship between both instruments to identify talented students in Physical Education. Future studies should delve into the enrichment programs available for these students. La detección del talento en el deporte ha sido un tema de interés en numerosas investigaciones. Sin embargo, en el área de Educación Física (EF) no ha sido así. El propósito de este estudio fue comprobar el grado de concordancia entre dos recientes pruebas destinadas a la detección del talento en EF: una pista de habilidades atléticas (Athletic Skills Track, AST) y la Escala de identificación del Talento en EF. Un total de 205 alumnos/as (54.76% niños y 45.4% niñas) de Educación Primaria (Medad = 8.37 años; DTedad = 1.79) participaron en el estudio. El alumnado con mejores resultados en la prueba de habilidades atléticas también fue considerado por el profesorado como talentosos/as en EF. Por tanto, los resultados aquí hallados indican que existe relación entre ambos instrumentos para identificar alumnado con talento en EF. Los estudios futuros deberán profundizar en los programas de enriquecimiento para dicho alumnado detectado como talentoso en EF.
