【 摘 要 】

Background: The inappropriate usage of terms and concepts and/or unclear definitions providedin the scientific literature hinder progress in any scientific field. This risk is especially noticeablein applied fields of research such as sports science and physical education. Objective: This studyexplored existing literature that uses the term ‘motor performance skills’ and aimed to proposea comprehensive definition to be applied in future research. Method: Following an adaptedscoping approach grounded in the rapid review model, we searched electronic databases PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, and Scopus until February 2022. The primary demographic focuswas sports science and physical education disciplines. After screening of titles and abstracts, 184papers were identified for a full review. Twenty-two papers met the inclusion criteria from the fullreview and received qualitative content analysis. The qualitative content analysis focused on theelaborated qualities of the term ‘motor performance skill’. Coding was used to identify and extractcontent, identify patterns, and observe the depth of interpretation of the term. Results: Only sixpapers used descriptive language, and three used explanatory language to convey aspects ofthe term’s meaning. All included papers extrapolated or provided examples to demonstrate theterm’s meaning. Based on a collaborative process, the study reached a proposed definition thathas the potential to be coined for the term ‘motor performance skills’ and used in future research.Conclusion: Thus, the current analysis revealed the need to collaboratively address the conceptualambiguity and develop a comprehensive definition of ‘motor performance skills’.
