Rankings and Benchmarks of Volleyball Performance Indicators in High-Intensity Volleyball Games

<p>目的：本研究旨在探索高強度排球比賽中技術指標之排名與獲勝基準。方法：資料透過排球資訊系統 (Volleyball Information System, VIS) 收集2017-2021 年台灣企業排球聯賽攻守數據。採用迴歸分析及條件機率鑑定各項技術指標之排名及獲勝基準。結果：結果顯示各項指標之排名及獲勝基準僅有些微地性別差異。首先，防守失誤及攻擊得分是男子組前兩名的指標，女子組則是攻擊得分為最重要之指標，防守失誤次之。其餘的八個指標排名男女組皆一致。 其次，若要將獲勝機率提升至50%以上 (獲勝基準)，攻擊得分必須要超過每局一半的分數，但僅僅2到3個攔網得分便能達到獲勝基準。再者，少數的發球失誤並不嚴重拉低獲勝機率，但1到2顆的發球得分卻可以達到獲勝基準。雖然非得分的技術指標 (如接發球失誤及舉球失誤) 之數量不多，但卻顯得相當重要。結論：條件機率足以呈現排球各項技術指標中整體團隊之獲勝基準。本研究基於統計的佐證提出陣容組建、訓練計畫、以及戰術運用等實務建議。</p> <p> </p><p>Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the rankings and benchmarks of performance indicators in high- intensity volleyball games. Methods: Data were collected through the Volleyball Information System (VIS)for the Top Volleyball League (TVL) seasons in Taiwan from 2017 to 2021. We adopted regression analysis and conditional probability to identify rankings and benchmarks of performance indicators. Results: Results revealed that there were no major differences between the sexes. Dig fault and spike point ranked men’s top 2 indicators while spike point possessed women’s highest rank followed by dig fault. The rankings for the remaining eight indicators were consistent across both sexes. In order to reach over 50% of the winning probability for a set (benchmark), more than half of the points must come from spiking. Achieving the benchmark could be accomplished with just 2 to 3 blocks, and a few service faults were not detrimental. In addition, 1 to 3 service aces was essential to meet the benchmark. Non-scoring indicators such as reception fault and set fault were not common but crucial for overall performance. Conclusion: Conditional probability could sufficiently present benchmarks of overall volleyball team performance indicators. This study offers statistical evidence for roster construction, training plans, and tactic applications.</p> <p> </p>

Team Performance Indicators That Predict Match Outcome in Rugby Union

The aim of the study is to identify the most significant indicators of the national team's performance at the European Rugby Championships 15 and to design a model for predicting the outcomes of matches. Data was collected from teams’ performance at the European Rugby 15 Championships 2021, 2022 and 2023 for the analysis. The total number of matches was 41. All indicators presented in the official reports were taken: 22 for the home and away teams. The analysis of the team results was carried out according to all indicators: mean value, standard deviation, and test were used to compare the performance indicators of the winning and losing teams. Machine learning techniques were utilized to develop a predictive model for match outcomes. On one hand, 15 indicators (68.2%) are higher for teams that won (winning teams). On the other hand, 7 (31.8%) indicators are higher for teams that lost. The difference between the teams' means varies from -56.46% (the minus indicates that this indicator is higher for the teams that lost) to 273.68%. Based on the results, the Random Forest Classifier and Extra Trees Classifier algorithms have the best prediction accuracy (0.92). The most significant indicators of team performance that affect the final result of the match are tries (196.3% – the difference between the average values of winning and losing teams), conversions (176.7%), missed tackles (- 56.46%), offload (126.3%). Based on the data obtained, refining the team training process in Rugby 15 is possible.

Think like a team: Shared mental models predict creativity and problem-solving in space analogs

As long-distance space exploration missions move beyond low Earth orbit, and crews become more Earth-independent, it is essential to identify predictors of team performance - properties of teams that can be monitored during space flight to anticipate performance decrements. The most robust team state predicting performance in the team effectiveness literature is shared mental models. Shared mental models are properties of a group reflecting how members organize knowledge and understanding about the purpose of the team, the nature of the work, and how members work together. In this study we developed a measure of shared mental models for use in ground-based analogs. It was administered in the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA)'s Human Exploration Research Analog (HERA) Campaign 4, Campaign 5, and the Nazemnyy Eksperimental'nyy Kompleks (NEK) SIRIUS-19 mission. HERA included eight 4-member crews in isolation for 45 days; NEK SIRIUS-19 included a 6-member crew in isolation for 120 days. To track performance variations, we administered two team tasks: a creative thinking task and a problem-solving task. We found substantial positive correlations between shared mental models and both dimensions of team performance in HERA and in NEK. Though shared mental models are a strong predictor of team performance across mission stages, we found some nuanced shifts. First, mental model sharedness in HERA is associated with crews generating fewer ideas in the third quarter than in other quarters, but also generating more novel, original ideas. Second, in the NEK mission we observed a third quarter effect with problem-solving, and the nature of the effect was that the effect of the shared mental model was most important in all quarters except the third. These results suggest that mission timing but also mission duration are important factors that condition relations between team process variables like shared mental models and team performance indicators.

A PERFORMANCE OF THE MALAYSIA RUGBY SEVENS TEAM BASED ON SELECTED PERFORMANCE INDICATORS ON A VARIOUS ASIA-LEVEL RUGBY SEVENS TOURNAMENT FROM 2018 - 2020.

Identification of performance indicators related to the status of the game (winning and losing) is needed for a tactical approach especially in improving the Malaysia Men’s Rugby Seven team. This study aims to characterize team performance indicators based on the game status of Malaysia men’s rugby sevens teams. A total of 16 matches (winning, n=8, losing, n=8) for the national team from various Asia-level tournaments from years 2018 to 2020 were collected using Sportscode performance analysis software and a notational analysis form. The performance indicators variables are extracted from the excel spreadsheet using the visual basic application of Microsoft excel before being exported to SPSS version 26 with the significant value is set at p<0.05. Based on the analysis, there is no significant difference in the winning performance and losing performance of the Malaysia Men’s Rugby Sevens Team. The finding from this research can be utilized by the coaches and practitioners in improving the rugby sevens team performance.

Effectiveness of team and individual indicators of competitive activity of ukrainian men- weightlifters in 2021

Monitoring the development of weightlifting in Ukraine requires taking into account the effectiveness of individual and team performance indicators in national and international competitions for weightlifters of different ages. Research by experts indicates a fragmentary consideration of the effectiveness of competitive activities of weightlifters in different regions of Ukraine and the National Team of Ukraine. The goal is to determine the effectiveness of team and individual indicators of competitive activity of weightlifters of all ages in different regions of Ukraine and the National Team of Ukraine at the national and international starts in 2021. To solve this goal, we used the following research methods: analogy, analysis, synthesis, induction, analysis of documentary materials, methods of mathematical statistics. As a result of the research the following were revealed: quantitative data of participants of weightlifters of different age groups and teams of regions of Ukraine in national competitions in 2021; team championship of weightlifters of different age groups of different regions of Ukraine based on the results of participation in national competitions in 2021; quantitative data on the participation of Ukrainian weightlifters of different age groups in international competitions in 2021; personal and team medal count of weightlifters of Ukraine of different age groups according to the results of participation in international competitions in 2021.

Impact of technical and physical performance on match outcome over five elite European soccer seasons.

The technical and physical performance, a key part of overall soccer performance, tend to evolve due to changes in game rules, playing styles, and training methodology. Nevertheless, little has been reported in the literature on how match performance has changed over time in elite championships and leagues. Thus, this study aimed to assess the impact of selected technical and physical team performance indicators on match outcome over five seasons in the Russian Premier League. Twenty-two technical and physical team performance variables, recorded with an optical tracking system, were examined in 1186 matches played in the Russian Premier League during the 2016-2017 to 2020-2021 seasons. For pooled data in all examined seasons, shots on target were higher in won vs. drawn and lost matches. Percentage of challenges won was higher in won vs. drawn and lost matches. Sprint distance, counterattacks, shots, interceptions, recoveries, crosses, and the percentage of successful tackles all showed small though significant differences between match outcomes. Slightly greater odds of a more favorable match outcome were involved by increases in all selected variables, except crosses, showing an opposite effect. In the 2020-2021 season, ball possession time reported a slightly higher impact on match outcome than in previous seasons. The present results show that some technical performance variables have a great effect on match outcome, while other technical indicators and physical metrics have a smaller though still potentially relevant impact. These effects do not substantially differ across the five examined seasons.

0135 Springing Forward: The Influence of Daylight Savings Time on Team Performance in Professional Basketball

IntroductionDaylight Savings Time (DST) has been a well-studied occurrence in United States society. Past literature has documented numerous detriments related to cardiovascular and mental health, as well as heightened accident risk (e.g., traffic, construction, healthcare) due to this time shift. Given the scant research in professional sports though, the current study examines the impact of DST among National Basketball Association (NBA) teams.MethodsFollowing the 2011-12 lockout-shortened season, data for all games played during the 2012-13 to 2019-20 NBA seasons were collected from the publicly-available sports database, Basketball-Reference. Data from the 2020-21 season were excluded due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. During this period, data from 8,843 games were obtained, with 65 of these games being played the same day as DST. We investigated the influence of DST on points scored, points allowed, and game outcomes for both the home and visiting teams using mixed-effects regressions controlling for season and when applicable, winning percentage. Specifically, we compared team performance for games immediately following DST with season averages.ResultsFor both home and visiting teams, our regression models revealed no meaningful variations in performance between games played following DST and season averages. There were no statistically significant differences across points scored (pHome = .98, R2Marginal = .21, R2Conditional = .29; pVisiting = .36, R2Marginal = .32, R2Conditional = .45), points allowed (pHome = .84, R2Marginal = .34, R2Conditional = .42; pVisiting = .44, R2Marginal = .22, R2Conditional = .33), and game outcomes (pHome = .77, R2Marginal = .11, R2Conditional = .11; pVisiting = .71, R2Marginal = .10, R2Conditional = .18).ConclusionThe present analysis offers preliminary evidence that DST may not produce any observable effects on the selected indicators of team performance. However, our results could be explained by organizational and athlete sensitivity toward potential compromised performance during games played following DST. Furthermore, our study did not consider other variables that could impact teams (e.g., actual sleep schedules and travel), and was limited by a relatively small sample size of games played on DST. We suggest that future studies examine additional metrics implicated in team performance, such as shooting percentages, rebound rates, turnovers, among others.Support (If Any)None

Illuminating opposing performance effects of stressors in innovation teams

AbstractDespite the clear relevance of stressors for the creative work performed by individuals, how they affect teams in their ability to innovate is poorly understood. Thus, the question as to what kind of, and by which mechanisms, team stressors may give rise to better innovation team performance needs further consideration. We address this issue by applying the challenge–hindrance stressor framework to the team level of analysis in the context of innovation teams. By integrating insights from social identity theory and the attentional focus model, we highlight the importance of identity‐ and information‐based mechanisms in transmitting the differential effects of challenge and hindrance team stressors on the performance of innovation teams. We test our arguments for two of the most prominent indicators of innovation team performance (i.e., team creativity and team efficiency) in a multi‐informant sample of team members, team‐internal leaders, and team‐external managers from 114 innovation teams. Our findings support the opposing effects of challenge and hindrance team stressors in predicting innovation team performance through the two differential mechanisms. Specifically, for team efficiency, both team stressors come with the cost of team task conflict (i.e., the information‐based mechanism). However, whereas challenge team stressors enhance collective team identification (i.e., the identity‐based mechanism), hindrance team stressors undermine collective team identification, thereby aggravating their already negative effect on team efficiency. In terms of team creativity, our results suggest that both types of team stressors exert their indirect effects solely via the identity‐based mechanism. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Effectiveness of team and individual indicators of competitive activity of ukrainian women-weightlifters in 2021

Monitoring the development of weightlifting in Ukraine requires taking into account the effectiveness of individual and team performance indicators in national and international competitions for women weightlifters of different ages. Research by experts indicates a fragmentary consideration of the effectiveness of competitive activities of women weightlifters in different regions of Ukraine and the National Team of Ukraine. The goal is to determine the effectiveness of team and individual indicators of competitive activity of weightlifters of all ages in different regions of Ukraine and the National Team of Ukraine at the national and international starts in 2021.

Improving high lean team performance through aligned behaviour-value patterns and coactive vicarious learning-by-doing

PurposeWhy are some lean workfloor teams able to improve their already high performance, over time, and others not? By studying teams' and leaders' behaviour-value patterns, this abductive field study uncovers a dynamic capability at the team level.Design/methodology/approachVarious methods were employed over three consecutive years to thoroughly examine five initially high-performing lean workfloor teams, including their leaders. These methods encompassed micro-behavioural coding of 59 h of film footage, surveys, individual and group interviews, participant observation and archival data, involving objective and perceptual team-performance indicators. Two of the five teams continued to improve and perform highly.FindingsContinuously improving high lean team performance is found to be associated with (1) team behaviours such as frequent performance monitoring, information sharing, peer support and process improvement; (2) team leaders who balance, over time, task- and relations-oriented behaviours; (3) higher-level leaders who keep offering the team face-to-face support, strategic clarity and tangible resources; (4) these three actors' endorsement of self-transcendence and openness-to-change work values and alignment, over time, with their behaviours; and (5) coactive vicarious learning-by-doing as a “stable collective activity pattern” among team, team leader, and higher-level leadership.Originality/valueSince lean has been undertheorised, the authors invoked insights from organisational behaviour and management theories, in combination with various fine- and coarse-grained data, over time. The authors uncovered actors' behaviour-value patterns and a collective learning-by-doing pattern that may explain continuous lean team performance improvement. Four theory-enriching propositions were developed and visualised in a refined model which may already benefit lean practitioners.

The influence of opposition quality on team performance indicators in elite Gaelic football

ABSTRACT The aim of the current study was to assess if opposition quality influences the technical performance of lower-ranked Gaelic football teams. Over a three-year period (2016–2018), nine teams from Tier 3 were assessed on their technical performance levels over 50 matches. Teams were split into three groups according to team rating determined objectively using the Elo Ratings System for Gaelic football (Tier 1 (n = 14) (>1500 points, highest ranking), Tier 2 (n = 17) (1200–1499 points) and Tier 3 (n = 19) (<1200 points)). Teams in Tier 3 are of the same ranking as the “lower ranked teams”. A series of 1-Way ANOVA’s examined differences in technical performance comparing the lower ranked teams to all 3 tiers, where both significance and effect size were considered. There was a non-significant difference found when comparing the lower ranked teams with all three tiers for all variables (all P > 0.05). For both successful hand-passes (ƞ2 = 0.140) and long kick-outs lost (ƞ2 = 0.213), all tiers had a large effect. Between tiers, long kick-outs lost (d = 1.77) was the only large effect noted and occurred when the lower ranked teams played Tier 1 teams. The current study gives an insight to coaches of what parameters in the game are influenced by the opposition.

Predicting Teamwork Performance in Collaborative Project-Based Learning

Pulse of the Profession, published by Project Management Institutes (2017), reported that failed projects always lacked (a) clearly defined objectives to measure progress and (b) poor communication between team members. Minimizing communication costs and maximizing trust levels are essential to improve the efficiency of team performance. This study&amp;rsquo;s objectives required including how to formulate the problem and design the theoretical framework. The approach used involved a five-step team formation model with related definitions, including initial team forming, depending on group size, team agreement, role assignment, and team performance. The Predicting Teamwork Performance (PTPA) system was developed to help identify the functional roles of each member automatically. Role assignment provided a strong positive effect on team projects, while the role identification mechanism can assign team members responsibilities for some role(s) to enable learning. Self-assessment was used to identify team members&amp;rsquo; strengths and weaknesses so that team leaders could easily recognize suitable types of roles for each member. Three primary team performance indicators&amp;mdash;&amp;rdquo;Good&amp;rdquo;, &amp;ldquo;Pass&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;Marginal&amp;rdquo;&amp;mdash;were reflected in the teamwork collaboration outcomes. The Predicting Teamwork Performance system reveals information about those outcomes through 1) individual performance indicator; 2) teamwork performance indicator; 3) personal skill sets results; 4) recommended skill sets improvements. The relationship between those indicators and practical roles was examined as analytical information for further project team formation.

Virtual teamwork in healthcare delivery: I-O psychology in telehealth research and practice

[...]research on virtual healthcare teams will take place primarily in field-based versus laboratory-based settings, which may improve the ecological validity of research findings when applied in practice. [...]the rapid transition to telehealth due to the COVID-19 pandemic presents a significant opportunity for longitudinal research to study healthcare teams with a prior (and, perhaps long-term) history of face-to-face (FTF) interactions that now take place with some extent of virtuality. [...]in the inpatient setting, teams engaging in virtual rounding or teams working within inpatient COVID-19 care units will exhibit variations in functional diversity (e.g., clinical expertise), technology used (e.g., videoconferencing, telephone), and geographic dispersion (e.g., locally within the hospital with some in/out of the patient room) throughout the duration of a patient’s hospitalization. [...]there is an opportunity to move beyond subjective satisfaction and experience indicators of virtual team performance to more objective outcomes.

Exploring the effect of various match factors on team playing styles in the National Rugby League

Objectives This study examined the effect of match location, score-line, team quality and match outcome on the expression of team playing styles in the National Rugby League (NRL) across the 2015–2019 seasons. Methods Thirty-eight performance indicators (e.g. offloads, runs) from all NRL games (n = 2010) were collected. Match-related factors examined were location (home/away/neutral), match type (absolute score differential), team quality (end of season ladder position) and outcome (win/draw/loss). Factor analysis using principal component analysis (PCA) were run to identify team playing styles, which were inferred from the clustered dimensions (Factors) of team performance indicators. Discriminant analysis was then used to determine the effect of the match factors on team playing styles. Results PCA revealed nine Factors accounting for ∼54% of team performance variance. Discriminant analysis did not meaningfully resolve team playing styles for match type, team quality or location (∼34%, ∼46% and ∼58% classification accuracy, respectively). One discriminant function correctly classified ∼81% of matches based on outcome, including four team playing styles defined as ‘attacking play’, ‘linebreaks’, ‘handling errors’ and ‘conceded linebreaks’. Conclusions Team playing styles characterised by ‘attacking play’ and ‘linebreaks’, coupled with relative defensive efficiency showed the greatest association with winning regardless of team quality, match location or match type. Using similar sport analytical techniques, additional insight into the importance of various team playing styles over the time-course of a match may allow teams to further extrapolate the likelihood of success in real-time.

Cross-cultural adaptation and semantic validation of an instrument to identify palliative requirements in Portuguese.

ABSTRACTObjective To translate and make cross-cultural adaptation of NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© tool to Portuguese, and to analyze its semantic validity.Methods A methodological research about NECPAL CCOMS-ICO© tool cross-cultural adaptation, translated from Spanish into Portuguese and measurement of semantic validity. The cross-cultural adaptation process was conducted according to Beaton recommendations, including translation, translation synthesis, back-translation, and analysis of semantic, idiomatic, conceptual, and cultural equivalence of translated and back-translated tool versions, resulting in a pre-final version, which was submitted to a pre-test (n=35). Contend Validity Index was calculated to analyze semantic validity.Results Cross-cultural adaptation process allowed us to prepare the final version of this tool, which was named NECPAL-BR. Collected data from pre-testing step enabled the analysis of semantic validity. The Content Validity Index observed at this step was 0.94.Conclusion The semantic validity of the tool in its Portuguese version was confirmed; therefore, it may assist in screening chronic progressive disease patients, aiming to provide early palliative care. It may also be used to develop clinical and team performance indicators, and be employed as a care management tool designed to optimize resources.

Motivating Employee Innovative Behavior through Servant Leadership: An Empirical Investigation

The study of follower-centered leadership has emerged as an important leadership style with benefits for individual and team performance indicators. Using the social identity theory, the current study focuses on how and when servant leaders facilitate employees’ innovative behavior. A moderated mediation framework is employed to propose perceived insider status as the psychological mediating mechanism in the relationship between servant leadership and innovative behavior, and team-member exchange as an attenuating moderator on the indirect effect of servant leadership on employee innovative behavior. The results of this study based on a sample of 213 dyads comprising manufacturing workers and their immediate supervisors, support all of the study hypotheses. The theoretical contributions and implications, as well as the limitations and future research, are discussed.

Tenure matters for team cohesion and performance: the moderating role of trust in the coach

ABSTRACT Research question: This study examines team performance as a function of team tenure, cohesion and trust in the coach. Specifically, we propose a moderated-mediation model to explain whether it translates into an objective measure of future team performance. Research methods: The study sample consists of 668 players from 73 professional and top amateur basketball league teams in Catalonia, Spain. Data collection consisted of a survey performed during a regular training session held at the beginning of the second part of the season as well as objective and subjective team performance indicators. Results and findings: Our findings suggest that the indirect effect of team tenure on performance through team cohesion is only significant for high and medium levels of cognitive trust in the coach and low levels of affective trust in the coach. Implications: These findings provide evidence that explains trust's contribution to fostering team dynamics and how team tenure translates into future team performance. The practical implications of this study suggest that simply promoting team cohesion without taking into account the cognitive trust in the coach will not necessarily increase performance. Therefore, coaches and managers must invest in the amount of work they do with team members and their skills in order to ensure team members have high cognitive trust in them.

The Effects of Psychological Factors on Perceptions of Productivity in Construction Sites in Japan by Worker Age.

The construction industry is a work environment that poses many dangers to workers, with many hidden factors that affect work awareness. It is important for construction companies to ensure a balance between productivity and safety in the work environment. The purpose of this study was to identify relationships between the feeling of safety in the work environment, proactive work behavior, job satisfaction, work skills, team performance, and health risk indicators, such as heart rate, among construction workers of different ages. Based on previous research, we examined the hypothetical perception model. We then administered a questionnaire survey to construction workers (N = 357) employed at a Japanese construction company. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), we investigated the impact of health risk indicators on worker perceptions among young and older workers. The results showed that workers’ heart rate and body mass index (BMI) had a negative effect on the feeling of safety and proactive work behavior among older workers, but showed no significant relationship among young workers. However, regardless of workers’ age, it was clear that the feeling of safety affects job satisfaction, and that work skills and proactive work behaviors affect perceptions regarding team performance.

Novel component variables can be used to distinguish between winning and losing across match periods in elite Gaelic football

ABSTRACT This study examined whether team performance indicators could be used to differentiate winners from losers across specific match periods in 26 Gaelic football games. A principal component analysis, conducted on either 25 (halves) or 27 (quarters) variables, produced 6 components, which explained 83.5% and 81.0% of the variance for halves and quarters, respectively. Generalised estimating equation models were used to identify derived components which differentiated winners from losers across specific periods. In winning halves, 4 components were significant; midfield counterattacking (p = 0.008), possession (p = 0.001), low press efficiency (p = 0.032) and tackle pressure (p = 0.023). Possession (p = 0.007) and tackle pressure (p = 0.014) contributed significantly more to winning in the second compared to the first half. In winning quarters, 4 components were also significant; midfield counterattacking (p = 0.000), possession (p = 0.000), offensive dead ball efficiency (p = 0.029) and high press efficiency (p = 0.034). High press efficiency (p = 0.000) and midfield counterattacking (p = 0.021) contributed significantly more to winning in quarters 1 and 2, respectively, in comparison to quarter 4. These results can be used by coaches to develop tactical strategies and establish performance targets for specific match periods.
