The effect of visual and verbal feedback on the quality of fencing technique

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the effect of using visual feedback (expert model, personal model) and verbal feedback on the level of performance of some skills in fencing. The researcher used the experimental method by using pre and post measurements for three experimental groups, on a sample of (40) second year female students on the Faculty of Physical Education, Sadat City University (10) for the survey study, (30) for the basic study were divided into three experimental groups, Each group consists of (10) students. The first experimental group used visual feedback technique using modeling, the second, used visual feedback technique using Self-Modeling and the third, verbal feedback was used. There were statistically significant differences between the visual group using the (expert modeling) and the verbal group in the (basic skills - offensive skills - Total skill performance) in the direction of the visual group using (expert modeling). There were also statistically significant differences between the visual group using (personal modeling) and the verbal group in both (basic skills - defense skills - skill level) in the direction of the visual group using the (personal modeling). While there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups using visual feedback (the expert model, the personal model) in all search variables.
