The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of motivational factors of music on performance and learning a chain skill in children. For this purpose, 24 healthy non-athlete 11-year-old girls were selected from two fifth grade class by available sampling method and were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. After the training the participants were given a pre-test. The training program in the acquisition phase was a chain skill including rolling, shooting football and receiving and passing the basketball for 8 weeks (two sessions per week with a pack of 4 attempts) which was performed with the existence of motivational factor of music in the experimental group and then a post-test was taken. Finally, after three weeks of not training, retention and transfer tests were taken. The data were analyzed through co-variance analysis and independent and paired sample t-test. The results showed that both groups have had progress in acquisition of the skill (p<0.01) but there was no significant difference between scores of the two groups (p>0.05). There was also no significant difference between retention and transfer test scores of the two groups. According to the findings of the study, it can be said that the motivational factor of music alone is not effective on motor performance and learning of children.
