| On the basis of analysis of sports talents identification and the relative contents about cultivation, relationship between identification and cultivation, and success in sports, the new theory "Combinative Theory of Identifying and Cultivating Athletes' Talent" is put forward, the theory basis is discussed, and the status quo has been investigated. The results show that some of the present conditions accord with and the other do not accord with the new theory.In this dissertation, the new theory is profoundly studied synthetically with methods of library research, investigation, statistics, case-studying and theory-analysis. Advocated are combination of theory with practice, static with dynamic state, deduction with induction, focusing on Identifying and Cultivating Athletes' Talent.The results are as follows.1. From the angle of the relationship between identification and cultivation, talent identification is not only a test or several tests, or transverse selecting index or determining the selecting standards, but is a longitudinal, successive and long process. Though the contents in different phases are not the same, talent identification is a dynamic process closely connected with the cultivating process all the time.2. From the synthetic viewpoint, identification is a foundation, training is a process, and competition is the purpose; from the analytic opinion, during some phases, identification is the destination, training and competition are processes serving identification.3. High identification rate does not mean high success rate. But the high identification rate is a precondition for the high success rate. The minimum identification rate can be calculated from the success rate.4. "Gifted athlete identification" is re-defined as "a dynamic process for distinguishing talent athletes closely combined with cultivation". It requires not merely prediction for identification integrated with the cultivation situation, but also a double check of the process in which data are obtained in cultivation, instead of treat the data statically and dogmatically.5. The new theory in this dissertation connotes that selection is a dynamic process, selection and cultivation supplementing each other, each serving as the other's purpose, selection containing cultivation, and vice versa. The theoretic basis for this new theory includes genetic theory, teenager growth theory, sportsmen developing theory, psychological theory and structure features in elite athletes' competitive ability. The practical basis evolves levels, phases and ages of selection, event transfer, and athletes' developing process, etc.6. With development of genetics, the new theory will guide sports talent selection scientifically.7. The following investigation results accord with the new theory:(1) Only 35.4% of the coaches think of identification as important as training; 64.4% of them consider identification more important; almost no one doubts the importance of identification.(2) In practical selection, coaches from different levels and different event groups do not think highly of athletes' sports performance. This fact shows that though sports performance is an important index in selecting athletes, it is by no means the most important index.(3) Coaches' opinions about the relationship between identification and cultivation: 76.8% of them think that identification is a dynamic process combined with cultivation; 94.1% of them think that the training of a lower level should serve the identification for a upper level; 86.3% of them think that thecultivation quality influences further identification quality.(4) The training loads for athletes assigned by coaches seem to be reasonable, basically with the ascendent trend in various training levels.(5) In this investigation, 472 athletes of 3758 have transferred events. The new theory can well explain the following phenomena: most transfer events at the age between 12 to 16; 80% of the event-transfer has positive effects; coaches guide about 80% of the event-...
