Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Total agility time measured using the Algiya Dayali Tepkisel Çeviklik Test Sistemi (ADTÇTS – Perception-Based Reactive Agility Test System), which records movement initiation, sprint, and decision-making responses in milliseconds, measured at baseline (pre-test) and after 8 weeks of training (post-test) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Sprint time: sprint duration over a reactive course recorded using ADTÇTS pre-test and post-test 2. Decision-making time: time taken by the participant to make the correct directional choice in response to a visual stimulus, as recorded by ADTÇTS pre-test and post-test 3. Movement initiation time: time between stimulus presentation and the initiation of body movement, measured by the same system pre-test and post-test. All measurements were conducted using the same test system under identical conditions, ensuring consistency and reliability. | — |
