Effect of verbal feedback on lay-up and dribbling during ten weeks of basketball training
Keywords:
Skill, talent, basketball, verbal feedbackAbstract
This study sought to examine the impact of verbal feedback on dribbling and lay-up skills in
basketball training. The study group consisted of 70 male students voluntarily participating from
sports schools. Thirty-five students received 10 weeks of training with verbal feedback (experimental
group), while another 35 students underwent 10 weeks of training without verbal feedback (control
group). Data collection instruments included the Dribbling Assessment Form and the Lay-up
Assessment Form, the validity and reliability of which were previously established by Çamur (2001).
Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests were used to determine whether the scores were
normally distributed. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was employed to determine the difference
between the pre-test and post-test scores of the groups. The significance level was set at 0.05 for all
statistical analyses. The findings revealed a statistically significant difference between the pre-test
and post-test scores of the experimental group in both dribbling and lay-up skills (P < 0.05). In
conclusion, we observed that verbal feedback provided during ten weeks of basketball training had a
positive effect on lay-up and dribbling skills
