Interpreting the statistical data

(Interpretation der statistischen Daten)

In this paper it is explained how to interpret the values presented from the analyses. Sometimes it is better to have a high value for a variable, sometimes a low value, and other times it may be better to be towards the middle of the range of values achieved by the world's best divers. For some variables it is difficult to say what an 'optimal' value is. In fact, the optimal may vary from one diver to another depending on individual characteristics and the interacting effect of other factors. However, even for these variables, the values can be useful in providing an indication of change over a period of time or observing whether a diver is performing a dive in a consistent manner. General guidelines are given for interpreting values for the following variables: hurdle flight time, dive flight time, time to max flexion, duration of straight position, timeposition held, entry preparation time, hurdle hight, dive hight, hip and knee angle at hurdle landing, hip and knee flexion change - depression, hip and lean angle at take-off, hip angle - max flexion, hip angle - entry, angle entry. An example data sheet is shown for women's 3m forward dives without twists.
