A Method for Identification of Some Components of Judging Springboard Diving.

McCormick, James H.; And Others

Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, v53 n4 p313-22 Dec 1982

This study identifies critical elements of the front dive half-twist that judges are likely to look for when they score springboard diving competitions. Videotapes of divers at a 1979 intercollegiate diving meet were made and analyzed, using grid scoring procedures, to isolate components of the dives that would help predict judges' scores.
