Sažetak
Defining the space of motor skills is one of the priority tasks of scientists who study the anthropological status of preschool children. In order to define it on the scientifically appropriate manner, it is necessary to find adequate measuring instruments. This primarily involves defining the tests that will have satisfactory metric characteristics and at the same time be appropriate for children of preschool age. Currently their number is relatively limited and they are not tested on population of Croatian children. For the purpose of this study on a sample of 30 children, aged 6 ± 0.5 years, who attended one of the kindergartens in the city of Zagreb, the metric characteristics of test for assessing fundamental movement skill -standing long jump are tested. The obtained results show a good objectivity, homogeneity and reliability of selected test and can be recommended for work with children of preschool age.
