Data are presented as coefficient (standard error). Abbreviations: SE, standard error; A, Flexibility Training; B, Plyometric Jump Training; C, Regular Training; D, Speed Training; E, Traditional Strength Training. The P-value reflects the statistical evidence for a difference between direct and indirect estimates. A P-value > 0.05 indicates that no statistically significant inconsistency was detected; however, this does not establish consistency, particularly in sparse loops where power may be limited.
