The Effects of Video Observational Training on Video and Live Observational Proficiency is a research paper published in Journal of Teaching in Physical Education (1994). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.781. It has been cited 12 times, with 12 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 43/100.
The purposes of this study were to develop and implement an observational training program and to assess the effects of a video observational training program on video and live observational proficiency. Physical education majors took a pretest in both a video and a live environment to assess observational proficiency. The task was observing children batting and answering questions regarding the critical features of the movement. The students were then placed into either a treatment (n = 12) or a control (n = 11) group. There were no differences between groups on either assessment (p > .05). The treatment group then participated in a video observational training program. After the training, all subjects took a posttest in each environment to assess observational proficiency. The training was found to be effective in improving video observational proficiency (p < .05) but not live observational proficiency (p > .05). These results provide support for the effectiveness of video observational training in developing video observational proficiency but not live observational proficiency.

Base Score Contribution
0.385
From this paper's citation signal
Citation Network Contribution
0.396
From 9 citing papers with measurable signal
DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 49% comes from its base citations and 51% from the citation network (9 citing papers contributed measurable signal).
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
