The Cooper test which was designed by Kenneth H. Cooper in 1968 for US military use is a physical fitness test. [1] [2] [3] In its original form, the point of the test is to run as far as possible within 12 minutes. Pacing is important, as the participant will not cover a maximal distance if they begin with a pace too close to an all out sprint.
A norm-referenced test does not seek to enforce any expectation of what test takers should know or be able to do. It measures the test takers' current level by comparing the test takers to their peers. A rank-based system produces only data that tell which students perform at an average level, which students do better, and which students do worse.
The test contained three events: push-ups, sit-ups, and a two-mile run with a soldier scoring from 0 to 100 points in each event based on performance. A minimum score of 60 in each event was required to pass the test.
The test is used clinically to examine patients with different neuropsychological impairments, but has also helped to understand the properties of the test. For example, immediate recall and long-delayed recall were highly correlated (above r=0.80) for normal patients and those with Huntington's disease, but the variables were only correlated ...
With the new IPPT system, the exemption criteria for PTP is now 61 points based on sit-up, push-up and 2.4 km run done in a single session, graded according to the IPPT scoring system. [ 5 ] According to data from the Ministry of Education , the percentage of students passing NAPFA has been increasing steadily over the years, from 58% in 1992 ...
The multi-stage fitness test was first described by Luc Léger [6] with the original 1-minute protocol, which starts at a speed of 8.5 km/h, and increases by 0.5 km/h each minute. Other variations of the test have also been developed, where the protocol starts at a speed of 8.0 km/h and with either 1 or 2-minute stages, but the original ...
He decided to go for speed and warm up for Monday’s record attempt by completing the most burpee pull ups in one minute (26) on the set of Good Morning America on Dec. 1. On the show, he was ...
The test score is the time taken on the test, in minutes. This can also be converted to an estimated maximal oxygen uptake score using the calculator below and the following formulas, where the value "T" is the total time completed (expressed in minutes and fractions of a minute e.g. 9 minutes 15 seconds = 9.25 minutes).
