The convenience sample included 164 healthy girls from public schools. A Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated on the association between MABC-2, KTK and TGMD-3 performances in graders. A one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was conducted to compare performances means across grade levels. Low-to-moderate correlations were found between assessments across age in each assessment. In general, girls demonstrated higher scores across age cohorts. In conclusion, low-to-moderate associations among assessments instruments provide different pictures/levels of motor competency and should not be used interchangeably in studies. }, URL = {http://jrsm.khu.ac.ir/article-1-2719-en.html}, eprint = {http://jrsm.khu.ac.ir/article-1-2719-en.pdf}, journal = {Research in Sport Management and Motor Behavior}, doi = {10.52547/JRSM.12.23.71}, year = {2022} }
