Beneficios y barreras identificadas por las presas que practican actividad física: Una revisión cualitativa de la literatura (Benefits and barriers identified by incarcerated women who practice physical activity: A qualitative literature review)
El objetivo de esta revisión fue identificar los beneficios y las barreras que perciben las mujeres encarceladas durante la práctica de actividades físico-deportivas. La búsqueda se realizó partiendo de tres áreas –actividades físico-deportivas, prisión y mujer– la cual finalizó con 33 estudios de los cuales se seleccionaron 27, que analizaban los beneficios y/o las barreras de las presas, mediante un análisis de contenido. Los datos muestran cómo la práctica física les resulta beneficiosa tanto para su salud mental y física, como para sobrellevar y resistir la condena. A la vez, ciertos estudios revisados apuntan que las actividades físico-deportivas pueden ser beneficiosas para la futura …
¿Dónde está mi Capital? Una Reflexión Personal sobre la Habilidad y el Acceso al Reconocimiento para la Inclusión en Educación Física
La habilidad es un constructo social que influye en el acceso al reconocimiento de las personas en el ambito de la actividad fisica y el deporte (AFD) y en las aulas de educacion fisica (EF) en particular. Sin embargo, actualmente la habilidad se define de forma tradicional y limitada, lo que genera experiencias de violencia simbolica entre aquellas personas con un cuerpo y unos gustos que se alejan de los discursos normativos y hegemonicos dominantes. Este estudio se centra en la narracion de mis propias experiencias de violencia simbolica y “capital-dependencia” como mujer “habil” en el campo de la AFD. A traves del analisis de momentos de inflexion desde una mirada retrospectiva, trato d…
Creating and maintaining social networks: women’s participation in Basque pilota. [Creación y mantenimiento de redes sociales: participación de mujeres en pelota vasca].
Basque pilota is a traditional sport played mainly by men. A project emerged in 2005 to promote female participation: Emakumea Pilotari (Woman pelota player). In this article we present the main points that emerged from an ethnographic study of the social relationships that playing Basque pilota can provide. The study was carried out in 2011-2012 season with a purposive sample of 28 adult women Basque pilota players (pilotaris) (between 22 and 60 years old). 26 participants were pilotaris in recreational groups and the other two were their trainers. The results suggest that a sense of community, team membership, the development of a general reciprocity and group security are the most import…
Frictions, cracks and micro-resistances: physical activity and sport as strategies to dignify imprisoned women
Discipline and control are key concepts within industrial and capitalist societies. In this context, prisons are a warning tool about the consequences of non-conformity [Foucault, M., 1995. Discipline and Punish: The birth of Prison. NY: Vintage Books]. As a result, punitive power is used as a corrective technique to transform prisoners into docile and useful citizen. However, power in prison is no static and inmates can create various strategies of resistance. The aim of this research is to understand how physical activity and sport are used by incarcerated women to confront social control and negotiate power relations. Underpinned within a critical feminist epistemology, we interviewed 16…
Physical activity practiced by incarcerated women: A systematic review
Our aim doing this systematic review was to identify and analyze studies about women prison inmates' engagement in sport and physical activities (SPAs). The review was conducted in three areas - SPAs, prison and women - and based on information obtained from different databases. Through a selection process, we singled out 33 empirical and review studies, the quality of which was analyzed. From our analysis, we learn that the benefits women prison inmates derive from SPAs are considerable, although they also reveal that obstacles exist to be overcome if their levels of participation are to rise.
Percepción del alumnado sobre evaluación formativa y compartida: conectando dos universidades a través de la Blogosfera
The aim of this study was to evaluate differences in physical education students’ perception on an educational innovation based on formative and peer assessment through the blogosphere. The sample was made up of 253 students from two Spanish universities. Data was collected using a self-reported questionnaire and t tests were employed in order to find differences among students’ groups. Results show significant differences in almost all of the items on which the students were questioned. Basque students were more satisfied with the assessment tool used than the Valencian students. Students found the blogosphere more active, meaningful, functional and motivating and that it made for collabor…
