Sažetak
The aim of the study was to identify motor structures of the integral space of basic motor abilities, specific motor abilities and motor skills (techniques) in elite karateka, and to determine relations between the basic and specifi c motoricity in karateka. The study included a group of 85 karateka aged 18-29 years, competing as senior category athletes within the Croatian Karate Society. A battery of 22 motor tests (9 basic motoricity tests and 13 specific motoricity tests) were used. Factor analysis of the basic and specific motoricity pooled variables revealed existence of four significant factors as follows: general factor of technical efficiency with basic explosive strength ; factor of speed (basic and specific) ; factor of basic coordination ; and factor of specific agility. Canonic correlation analysis yielded two significant linear combinations between the tests on basic motor abilities and tests for assessment of specific motor skills and performance. First canonic correlation was based on general efficiency of specific skills and performance, determined by the basic motor abilities of explosive strength, movement frequency and agility. Second canonic correlation indicated the karateka of above average explosive strength but below-average speed to achieve above-average results, while those with above-average speed but below-average explosive strength achieved below-average results on specific agility tests and technical element performance.
