MO|RE data is a DFG-funded interdisciplinary project led by the Institute of Sports and Sports Science in collaboration with the RDM@KIT service team and external IT experts.
Data on motor performance has been collected in a large number of projects for decades, both nationally and internationally, but the current state of research is characterized by inconsistent and sometimes contradictory results. In addition, much of the data collected never leads to publications and thus remains inaccessible to interested research groups.
The aim of the project is to provide a reliable platform for the publication and archiving of research data in sports science. Motor skills data will be prepared in a citable format, making it scientifically reusable for interested research groups. Furthermore, MO|RE data generates comprehensive standard data and provides materials for motor skills tests. The initial focus is on data from the German Motor Skills Test and other selected standardized test tasks that are widely used.
MO|RE data should be accessible free of charge to scientists, practitioners (trainers/teachers/doctors) and the interested public. MO|RE data is intended to be a web-based application whose research data can be exported and reused as citable and internationally verified data. This should create incentives to share one's own research data and to conduct further research with citable data in order to improve and expand the database.
A web-based application was already created during the first project phase (2014-2016). During the second project phase (2021-2022), the aim is now to expand this in terms of user-friendliness and to implement measures for networking, quality assurance, and sustainability.
