2.Basic swimming skills were scored on a dichotomous scale (0 = “I can’t” and 1 = “I can”). 

3.Swimming competenceindex(SCI) can be calculated by the following algorithm. It is an index of overall swimming competencethat ranged from 0 (i.e., “incompetent”) to 100 (i.e., “competent”).


Swimming CompetenceIndex  =  100  x (Generalscore x  2  +  MEAN(Front-Crawlscore, Breaststrokescore, Backstrokescore, Butterflyscore) x 2 + (Poolside Kickingscore+Kickboard Kickingscore+ Holding Breath Underwaterscore+ Floatingscorex 2 + Treading Waterscorex 2 + Swimming Underwaterscorex 3) ÷30
