摘要：Since training of professional classical ballet dancers is primarily focused on the aesthetic component of performance there is a necessity to assess its qualitative aspects. This study aimed to investigate whether the Performance Competence Evaluation Measure (PCEM) adapted version for classical ballet can be a valid and useful tool: 1) to assess the performance of an \"Allegro\" sequence; 2) to discriminate between different levels of dancers\' experience.Twenty-four female classical ballet dancers divided in two subgroups [Ballet students (n = 12) and Pre-professional dancers (n = 12)] were recruited to perform a 70 seconds sequence of “Allegro” specifically choreographed. Each performance was assessed by three very experienced judges, which scores were based on a Likert scale (ranging from 1 to 5) to evaluate the following four parameters: 1) Full Body Involvement (FBI); 2) Body Integration and Connectedness (BIC); 3) Articulation of Body Segments (ABS); 4) Movement Skills (MS). The inter-rater reliability values were ranging from good (between 0.6 and 0.8) and very good (over 0.8) for all parameters, while the test-retest reliability showed a very good agreement for all parameters. The Allegro is a dance sequence with greater dynamism that better highlights differences of execution between dancers with different technical levels and the Mann-Whitney test showed significant differences for all parameters (P=0.001) with lower values for the ballet students.In conclusion, the PCEM adapted version for classical ballet showed to be a valid tool: 1) to assess the performance of Allegro; 2) to discriminate between different dancers’ level of experience.
其他摘要：Ker se trening profesionalnih baletnih plesalcev osredotoča predvsem na estetsko komponento izvedbe, je nujno oceniti njene kvalitativne vidike. Namen te raziskave je bil preučiti, ali je lahko prilagojena različica orodja Performance Competence Evaluation Measure (PCEM) za klasični balet veljavna in uporabna za: 1) ocenjevanje izvedbe sekvence allegro, 2) razlikovanje med različnimi ravnmi izkušenosti baletnikov.V raziskavi je sodelovalo 24 klasičnih baletnih plesalk, ki so bile razdeljene v dve podskupini [študentke baleta (n = 12) in predprofesionalne plesalke (n = 12)] in so izvajale 70-sekundno sekvenco allegro v posebni koreografiji. Vse izvedbe so ocenjevali trije zelo izkušeni sodniki, njihove ocene pa so temeljile na Likertovi lestvici (od 1 do 5) za ocenjevanje štirih parametrov: 1) vključitev celega telesa (FBI), 2) integracija in povezanost telesa (BIC), 3) izraznost delov telesa (ABS) in 4) gibalne spretnosti (MS). Vrednosti zanesljivosti med ocenjevalci so bile od \'dobro\' (med 0,6 in 0,8) in \'zelo dobro\' (več kot 0,8) za vse parametre, zanesljivost testiranja-ponovnega testiranja pa je pokazala zelo dobro ujemanje pri vseh parametrih. Allegro je plesna sekvenca z večjo dinamičnostjo, ki bolje pokaže razlike v izvedbi med baletnimi plesalci na različnih tehničnih ravneh. Mann-Whitneyev test je pokazal statistično značilne razlike pri vseh parametrih (P = 0,001), z nižjimi vrednostmi pri študentkah baleta.Zaključili smo, da je prilagojena različica PCEM za klasični balet uporabno orodje za: 1) ocenjevanje izvedbe sekvence allegro ter 2) razlikovanje med različnimi ravnmi izkušenosti baletnih plesalcev.
