The effect of the idea filtering strategy on conative logical thinking and the performance of the front shooting skills from rolling and from side passing in football

Objective: The research aimed to develop a scale for students' logical reasoning in football, prepare educational exercises for the idea filtering strategy and its application in physical education football lessons on outdoor fields, and identify its impact on logical reasoning and performance in the skills of forward shooting from dribbling and from side passes in football. Research methodology: The experimental method was adopted with a two-group design (experimental and control) with (58) students randomly selected and divided into the two groups, representing (65.909%). The researchers used (120) students to develop the scale under study, employing systematic steps and various sequential statistical analyses. They also prepared the forward shooting test from dribbling and the shooting test from side passes. Educational exercises for the idea filtering strategy were developed and applied in the research experiment, the results of which were systematically analyzed. Results: The results showed that the students in the experimental group outperformed their peers in the control group in all three dependent variables. The differences between the experimental and control groups in the reasoning tests were significant. The logical reasoning in football, scoring from a dribble, and scoring from a side pass (0.000) are statistically significant and positive, confirming the effectiveness of the idea filtering strategy on students. Conclusions: The most important conclusion is that implementing educational exercises using the idea filtering strategy helps improve the level of logical reasoning and improves the performance of students who study using this strategy in terms of scoring from a dribble and scoring from a side pass in football, making them outperform their peers who study without it.
