Accuracy and Prediction in Throwing: A Taxonomic Analysis of Children's Performance.

Hoffman, Shirl J.; And Others

Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, v54 n1 p33-40 Mar 1983

A four-part taxonomy was used to analyze first-, third-, and fifth-grade children's ability to throw and to anticipate the position of a target. The children's performances were assessed under conditions in which both the thrower and the target were stationary, both were moving, and one was moving and the other stationary. (Authors/PP)
