Resumo:Agility stands as a pivotal component in team sports, encompassing not only physical but also cognitive aspects responsible for information processing, inhibitory control, and decision-making. Cognitive assessment tests often lack physical demands and, in many cases, adhere to stereotypes. Similarly, some agility tests are more accurately described as directional change tests due to the absence of cognitive demand. Hence, the aim of this study is to assess the reproducibility of a novel agility test involving actions with varying levels of cognitive demand complexity. The study involved young adult university students aged 18 to 35 years. Each volunteer underwent one day of familiarization, one test day, and one retest day. The test comprised two phases: congruent (where the volunteer runs following a direction indicated by black arrows) and incongruent (in addition to black arrows, the volunteer follows colored arrows regardless of their direction, obeying color commands - blue for forward, green for left, and red for right). The test consisted of 10 running actions for each condition, arranged randomly with a 10-minute interval between them, evaluating the total time of the course. As a result, a high and positive correlation was observed in both phases: congruent (0.85; p=0.00) and incongruent (0.78; p=0.00). Bland-Altman analysis revealed no dispersion bias for both tests, demonstrating good agreement between the test and retest in each phase. Additionally, an ICC of 0.92 was reported for the congruent condition and 0.87 for the incongruent condition, respectively. Despite slight variation between conditions, no statistically significant difference was found via ANOVA (p=0.062). In conclusion, the new test exhibits concordance between its conditions, proving reproducible, even without a significant difference in total time between congruent and incongruent modes, potentially serving as a valuable training tool.
