Constructing a scale of spatial perception of futsal players

Abstract

The study aimed to: Constructing a scale of spatial perception of futsal players.Establishing standard degrees and levels for the spatial perception scale for futsal players. The researchers used the descriptive approach with its survey for its convenience to the research nature, While the research community determined of the players of the Iraqi Premier League clubs in futsal for the season (2020-2021), which numbered (220) players , Where the research sample consisted of (160) players representing approximately (73%) of the research community, and the research sample was divided into two samples (construction and application), the construction sample included (80) players, and the application sample included (40) players . The researchers used content analysis, questionnaire, and personal interview as means of data collection, and for the purpose of constructing the spatial perception scale, the researchers followed all the scientific steps in constructing the scales , Which resulted in reaching the construction of the spatial perception scale for futsal players in its final form, which consists of (25) items, The statistical means that were calculated by the statistical program (SPSS) for the purposes of the research were limited to (percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, simple correlation coefficient, skew modulus, and standard score 6 sigma).The researchers reached the following conclusions:The spatial perception scale of the futsal players in the Iraqi Premier League was constructed, and it consisted of 25 items.The grades and standard levels of the spatial perception scale for futsal players in the Iraqi Premier League were established.Variation of spatial perception of futsal players.The researchers recommended a set of recommendations,here are the most important ones: Adopting the spatial awareness scale that was produced by the study in evaluating the spatial awareness level of the advanced futsal players.Adopting the standard tables of the spatial awareness scale in giving the levels to the players.Preparing standard tables for the spatial perception scale produced by the study for young players.Constructing scales of spatial perception for other team activities.Working to raise the level of spatial awareness of futsal players in the Iraqi Premier League.
