Modern Approaches to Modeling and Forecasting Training Activities in Figure Skating
The article deals with the empirical substantiation of the model of training activity in figure skating, which makes it possible to forecast the effectiveness of the training process. The aim of the study is to develop and empirically substantiate the effectiveness of the model of training activity in figure skating, which is based on the sports-important qualities of a figure skater. In the course of the study, a hypothesis was put forward based on the assumption that the effectiveness of training activities in figure skating is provided by the high formation of sports-important qualities of figure skaters. The research questions addressed in the study are as follows: on the basis of theoretical analysis to justify the model of training activities in figure skating, which is based on the sports-important qualities of skaters; to determine diagnostic and prognostic criteria and methods for evaluating the effectiveness of training activities in figure skating; to identify the features of important qualities in figure skaters, depending on the effectiveness of training activities. The research methods are theoretical analysis of scientific and methodological literature on the research problem; empirical methods of modeling and testing; quantitative and qualitative processing of research results; statistical methods (descriptive statistics, the Student’s t-test). The results of the study showed that figure skaters with high efficiency of training activities are characterized by a significantly high level of value-semantic organization of the individual, a high ability to organize sports activities, and determination to achieve the goals set in the training process.
