The purpose of this study was to examine how a rope-skipping exercise affected the self-efficacy of visually impaired children. It\'s specifically meant to determine whether that workout had any different impacts on their cognitive, physical and social self-efficacy according to their gender and eyesight.
The subjects in this study were every elementary schooler who attended a school for the blind. Out of them, 46 children applied for a rope-skipping grading, and 32 children didn\'t.
The findings of the study were as follows:
First, the visually impaired children who got rope-skipping exercise excelled the others who didn\'t in self-efficacy. Second, in the former group, the boys were more affected than the girls in physical self- efficacy and social self-efficacy, and the blind and low-vision children were under the greater influence of that workout in terms of cognitive self-efficacy. Third, in the case of those who didn\'t get that exercise, there was no gap in self-efficacy between the boys and girls, and no difference was found in that regard between the blind children and low-vision children, either.
