Question

What does the test battery for Johnson Metheny Motor Educability Test consist of? Explain procedure of any two tests.

Answer 1

The Johnson-Metheny Motor Educability Test battery consists of four stunts: front roll, back roll, jumping half-turns and jumping full-turns. For boys, all four tests are used; for girls, front roll, back roll and jumping half-turns are used.

Procedure of Front Roll: Perform two forward rolls in the 24-inch lane, one in each half of the lane, starting with feet outside the chart. Each correct roll earns 5 points; deductions are made for overreaching side/end lines or failing to perform a true roll.

Procedure of Jumping Half-Turns: Start with feet on the first 3-inch line; jump to the second 3-inch line with a half-turn, then to the third line with the opposite half-turn, alternating along the mat. Perfect execution = 10 points; 2 points are deducted for wrong landing or turning the wrong way.
