Android system based for measuring standing broad jump test among Reserve Officers Training Unit (ROTU)

Android system with information technology elements designed to facilitate learning outcomes of a learning process more quickly, and effectively including in physical fitness test. PURPOSE: The main aim of this study is to develop an android system for a standing broad jump test to be used among Reserve Officers Training Unit (ROTU) and then to measure the reliability of the test. METHODS: Thirty (N=30) participants from ROTU Cadet Officers of National Defence University of Malaysia (NDUM) volunteered to participate in this study. The participants performed a standing broad jump test in two different occasions. All data recorded in the android system develop purposely for the test. The test-retest method was used to measure the reliability value of the android system. Pearson's product movement correlation was used to investigate the reproducibility of the android system. RESULT: The findings showed the correlation coefficient between the trials is significant (r = 0.92, n = 30, p <0.001 The results of the study found that the value of the Pearson con-elation coefficient for both tests was r = 0.92. The reliability testing showed a strong positive correlation of the use of an android system for measuring standing broad jump test.
CONCLUSION: It can be concluded that the android system is reliable a may facilitate the physical fitness test data to be obtained easily especially when assessing NDUM ROTU cadet officers.
