AN EVALUATION ABOUT THE PROFILE MOTOR PERCEPTIVE OF ELDERLYWOMEN GIVEN A TASK RHYTHMIC NOISE

The goal of this research is to assess the perceptive-motor profile of 30 women aged between 60 and 65 years old, subject to a rhythmic-motor task. For assessment, The BUONO (2001) Rhythmical Pattern Test (TPR) was used. The resulting data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, using the T-test with significance p < 0, 05. The results conclude that, due to the subjects’ performance, there is predominance on slow reaction to sensorial stimulation, sluggishness on central processes, and reduced discrimination ability when motor perception is associated to a sonorous-rhythmical task.
