Understanding Skill Classification in Performance Appraisal

This article explores the various classifications of skills crucial for performance appraisal. It defines skills as purposeful movements and techniques as methods of skill execution. Skills can be categorized as fine or gross, discrete, continuous, serial, open, or closed. Fine skills involve small muscle groups (e.g., handwriting), while gross skills engage large muscle groups (e.g., swimming). Each category is explained with examples to help understand how these classifications can influence training programs and personal development in sports and performance activities.

  6. Discrete Has a distinct start and finish Examples – throwing, punching, a kick

  7. Continuous A skill that has no distinct beginning or end Examples – dribble in basketball, running, skiing

  8. Serial A series of discrete skills performed in a defined order to perform a continuous skill Examples – serving in tennis, a vault in gymnastics (i.e.. Run-up, take-off, pre-flight, support, post-flight, landing)

  9. Closed The performer is in complete control of the sequence and timing of the skill Examples – archery, golf swing, handstand

  10. Open The timing depends upon factors the performer cannot control. Eg opposition Examples – tackling in rugby, sailing, surfing
