Abstract

This study aimed to determine the Aiken validity index of the rhythmic gymnastics skill tests model for beginner athletes in the Indonesian version developed. The validation of the assessment model for rhythmic gymnastics skill tests for beginner athletes (Indonesian version) was conducted using expert judgment involving nine experts. The experts were selected based on the criteria of gymnastics lecturers, gymnastics referees, early childhood experts, and measurement and testing experts. The qualitative data collection stage used the Delphi technique. The results of the Aiken’s V analysis were compared with the minimum acceptable criteria in the Aiken’s V table (1985) for nine raters, with a maximum score of 4 and a 0.5% level of significance, resulting in a critical value of 0.75. Based on the results, the average value of all indicators in the rhythmic gymnastics skills test for beginner athletes (Indonesian version) is 0.859; therefore, the instrument meets the high standard of Aiken’s validity criteria. In conclusion, the rhythmic gymnastics skill test instrument for beginner athletes (Indonesian version) has acceptable validity and can be used to assess the rhythmic gymnastics skills of beginner athletes.
