The children and their parents were informed about all the features of the study and gave their consent to participate in the experiment. The following research methods were used to solve the tasks set: analysis of scientific and methodological literature, pedagogical testing, and methods of mathematical statistics for research results processing.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></p><p><strong>Results.</strong> To assess the closeness of interrelation between the parameters, the Pearson correlation coefficient was calculated. The Spearman – Brown formula was used to determine the overall reliability (homogeneity) of the test. The study tried out tests that take into account the specific qualities necessary for karate. Their informativity and reliability were revealed. They can be recommended for control of various relatively independent types of coordination abilities of 7-year-old boys who do karate. Nine-point scales for assessing test results were developed.</p><p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> The tests we have tried out, which take into account the specific qualities necessary for karate, are logically and empirically informative and reliable. They can be included in the “Kyokushin Karate” programs for 7-year-old boys at the initial training stage.</p> ER -
