Toward a More Complete History of Kinesiometrics (Kinesiometrics in Zagreb Research Methodology Circle)

In this paper development of kinesiometrics in Zagreb kinesiology circle is presented. Related to previous experiences in observation and measurement of human movement the term kinesimetrics appeared as kinésimétrie “kinesimetrie s.f. (ki-né-zi-mé-tri) – from greek: kinésis, movement ; metron, mesur), 19th century Francophone circle. It was Momirović (1968/1969), who introduced the term “kineziometrija”, “kinesiometry” i.e. “kinesiometrics”, in two papers published as outcome of Zagreb methodological circle the term that incorporate measurement theory, statistics, and mathematical analysis in the area of kinesiology. With equivalent goal, but 30 years later, i.e. in 1998., the term "kinesmetrics" (Zhu) as a term for a discipline intended to develop and apply measurement theory. This short overview is the core of a more elaborate presentation scheduled for introductory speech for Research Methodology section at 8th International conference on Kinesiology at Opatija 2017.
