The results of the Aiken's V analysis were compared with the minimum acceptable criteria in the Aiken's V table (1985) for nine raters, with a maximum score of 4 and a 0.5% level of significance, resulting in a critical value of 0.75. Based on the results, the average value of all indicators in the rhythmic gymnastics skills test for beginner athletes (Indonesian version) is 0.859; therefore, the instrument meets the high standard of Aiken's validity criteria.
