本研究針對參與世錦賽與奧運會鞍馬項目決賽選手的整套動作內容進行探討，藉以瞭解現階段鞍馬項目動作技術發展趨勢。本研究採用描述統計法及影片觀察法，紀錄世錦賽與奧運會鞍馬項目決賽選手完成整套動作中不同組群動作次數及分值。由研究結果中得知，世錦賽與奧運會鞍馬項目決賽選手實施整套動作的組群動作次數與組群動作分值表現趨勢相近，同樣是以第IV組群最高，第III組群次之。本研究發現國際優秀選手完成整套動作中以實施FLOPS組合動作、俄式迴旋、吳國年及童非等動作為主。另外，正（反）交叉轉體180度起倒立動作亦廣泛使用在整套動作中。

This study investigated all routines and exercises of finalists in World Championship and Olympic pommel horse events aiming to understand the current trends of techniques in pommel horse events. This study used descriptive statistics and film observation to record the number of movements and point values in the whole movement sets of finalists in World Championship and Olympic pommel horse events. The result of our study shows that finalists in World Championship and Olympic pommel horse events have similar performance trends in terms of their number of group movements and group movement point values for their whole routines. In both cases, Group IV ranked the highest, followed by Group III. This study discovered that outstanding international athletes mostly perform FLOPS assembly, Russian Wendeswing, Wu Guonian, and Tong Fei in their routines. Additionally, forward (backward) scissor and swings with spindles and handstands are also widely used.
