Description

<p>The purpose of this study is to clarify the kind of differences and common points between Japanese KENDO and Korean KUMDO, using the perception of the "Worth of Kendo" (6 areas) for coaches (referees) who have practiced KENDO / KUMDO for many years in each country.</p><p>The study surveyed 220 subjects, the average dan-rank for Japanese referees is 6.4 dan and 6.7 dan for Korean referees. The average age range is 46-48 years old, average range of years practiced is 33-35 years, and gender is 94-97% male and 3-6% female.</p><p>The "Worth of Kendo" was broken down into 6 areas and the difference between Japanese and Korean viewpoints was verified by t-test: "Mental Worth"4/6 items and "Educational Worth" 5/6 items were ranked as high commonality. On the other hand, "Physical Worth" 2/6 items, "Technical Worth" 2/6 items and "Cultural Worth" 2/6 items had less in common and showed differences. In addition, factor analysis (principal component method / promax rotation) was performed on all Japanese and Korean data, looking at the factor structure. The four factors are as follows: "Martial Arts View of Kendo" (Japan 4.38<Korea 4.51), "De-conservatism/Conservatism of Kendo" ("Conservatism" Japan 4.51>Korea 4.12, "De-conservatism" Japan 2.17<Korea 3.38), "Social Educational View of Kendo" (Japan 4.02<Korea 4.21), and "Competitive View of Kendo" (Japan 3.64≒Korea 3.68).</p>
