The aim of this study was to determine the explanatory capacity of the Spanish Triathlon Federation's talent identification tests in relation to performance in competition in subsequent years. We used an exploratory longitudinal study design to establish the relationship between talent identification tests completed by 247 triathletes (97 women and 150 men) aged from 14 to 19 years and the results they obtained over the years in competition. The battery of tests included freestyle swimming (100 and 1000 m) and running (400 and 1000 m). The results indicate that the explanatory capacity of these tests for split places in competition in the corresponding discipline was highest in the 1000-m swimming test, with a value of 0.34 for the adjusted coefficient of determination (Ra) (p ≤ 0.001), followed by the 1000-m running and 100-m swimming tests, where the highest Ra values were 0.26 and 0.19, respectively. No significant model was found for the 400-m running test. It was concluded that the explanatory capacity of the tests analysed for predicting performance in the discipline in competition was low. However, it was higher for the swimming and running tests of longer distance.
本研究的目的是确定西班牙铁人三项联合会的人才识别测试对于后续几年比赛成绩的解释能力。我们采用探索性纵向研究设计,以确定247名年龄在14至19岁之间的铁人三项运动员(97名女性和150名男性)完成的人才识别测试与他们多年来在比赛中取得的成绩之间的关系。测试项目包括自由泳(100米和1000米)和跑步(400米和1000米)。结果表明,这些测试对相应项目比赛中分段名次的解释能力在1000米游泳测试中最高,调整后的决定系数(Ra)值为0.34(p≤0.001),其次是1000米跑步和100米游泳测试,最高Ra值分别为0.26和0.19。400米跑步测试未发现显著模型。研究得出结论,所分析的测试对比赛中该项目成绩的预测解释能力较低。然而,对于较长距离的游泳和跑步测试,其解释能力较高。
