Abstract:
The main aim of the study was to find out the effect of specific exercises on selected coordinative abilities on special children. To achieve this aim, a total of 40 special children with age ranging from 10 to 18 years were randomly selected from school for special children Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh. It was hypothesized that there will be significant difference in mean of selected coordinative abilities between experimental group & control group and significant effect of duration on selected coordinative abilities. The selected coordinative abilities such as Reaction Ability, Orientation Ability, Differentiation Ability, Balance Ability and Rhythm Ability were measured with appropriate test. Pri-Data for the study was collected and after that the data was collected at different duration as per training of 2 week, 4 week and 6 weeks repeatedly. To find out the effect of training program on the special children’s. Mixed model design or between group designs –within group design was used 3&4 between –within factorial ANOVA was used as statistical technique to find out the significant difference. To test the hypothesis, the level of significance was set at 0.05. Findings of the study revealed that In Rhythmic ability, Orientation ability, Reaction ability and In Balance ability it was found that there was significant effect of training duration as well as interaction effect. In Orientation ability the main effect of Training Programme was also significant. In Balance ability, Rhythmic ability the main effect of Training Programme was not significant. In Differential ability the 15 min training programme is more economical since similar benefits can be ripped in lesser time. Thus the finding reveals that the minimum time required for development if Differentiation ability is four weeks. In Balance ability. There was significant difference between 2 weeks and 4 weeks but the performance improved in the initial two weeks and then deteriorated for further duration. This might be because of the fact that the subjects were special children with hear and speech impairment. In Reaction ability the data in all the combination was found normal except the data on the 4th Week of 30 min Training Programme, Thus the 15 min training programme is more economical since similar benefits can be ripped in lesser time.
