THE PREDICTION OF ALL-AROUND EVENT FINAL SCORE BASED ON D AND E SCORE FACTORS IN WOMEN'S ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS
In the present study, we try to establish whether specific disciplines in women’s artisticgymnastics are equal and should the applicable Code of Points (COP) be revised in terms ofpoint standardization on apparatus. Our sample included all-around senior female gymnastswho participated in the qualification (C-I) competitions from 2009 to 2019. The aim of ourresearch was to determine the impact of individual apparatus D and E score in women'sartistic gymnastic in relation to the final result of all-around event. The age among seniorsrise from 2009 to 2019 for 1.88 years. In our analysis, we have found that the results achievedon each apparatus were significantly different. The average final scores on vault weresignificantly higher than on all other apparatus. Significant predictors of all-around successseem to be uneven bars D and E scores and balance beam E score. It was interesting toobserve that the vault, balance beam and floor D scores were not significant predictors.Coaches can use the results from this research in their planning of preparation tactics forgymnasts in all-around, team and apparatus competitions.
