Student’s voice online: Experiences of PE in Finnish schools
2012

The messages were coded with sequential classification and grouped into positive, negative and both posi…

Promuovere l’inclusione attraverso il Programma Motorio Abilità Diverse
2023
Gli studi svolti nell’ambito delle neuroscienze, delle scienze motorie e le conseguenti applicazioni didattiche, hanno posto in evidenza la necessità di avviare processi di progettazione e organizzazione dei contenuti, delle modalità organizzative e delle metodologie in educazione fisica e nell’avviamento allo sport, per integrare e modulare fattori inerenti la quantità inclusiva e promuovere pratiche adattive e preventive per raggiungere sempre più persone con diverse esigenze. Le politiche nazionali e sovranazionali, attraverso il PNRR, sottolineano come l’educazione motoria rivesta un ruolo privilegiato per contrastare i fenomeni dell’esclusione e della marginalizzazione, nel periodo com…
How does physical education affect the development locomotor and object control skills in preschool children?
2016
Introduction Unlike other European countries, in Italian kindergartens the physical education (PE) teacher is not including in the school organic personnel. This is frequently associated with lack of opportunities to perform PE by preschool children. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse whether the effects of a PE program on the development of locomotor and object control skills in preschool children would depend on the hour amount of intervention. Methods This study involved 189 children (age: 4.62 ± 0.97 years; Height: 107.83 ± 7.82 cm, body weight: 19.84 ± 4.95 kg) of 8 Palermo kindergartens who were randomly divided in a control group (C, n= 29), an intervention group 1 (I1, …
La práctica deportiva del judo: análisis sociológico de su implantación y desarrollo en la sociedad valenciana
2010
Este artículo es un resumen de la tesis doctoral que se leyó en el año 2005 en el Departamento de Sociología y Antropología Social de la Universitat de València. El objetivo del análisis se plantea desvelar, desde una perspectiva sociohistórica, la irrupción del judo en la sociedad valenciana y su evolución hasta nuestros días en el contexto de una sociedad ampliamente deportivizada. Desde una mirada cualitativa, fundamentada en el análisis de los discursos producidos por informantes clave, se aborda la imagen social del judo como cultura cambiante, la forma en que se organiza su práctica y los confines que la delimitan en el contexto de la actual sociedad postindustrial y postmoderna.

The inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST) for assessing young children’s motor competence in the water
2021
As children’s actual aquatic skills are important for the prevention of drowning as well as their engagement in lifelong aquatic physical activity, researchers and practitioners should be able to assess this vital concept accurately and reliably. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST), consisting of 17 different test items for the assessment of young children’s motor competence in the water. Six raters received a training and evaluation session on scoring the AAST, after which five of them assessed four test videos (of various children (n = 38) performing the test items) twice, with one to t…
Educación física y deporte como aprendizaje a lo largo de la vida: alternativas pedagógicas al modelo prototípico corporal
2017
Resumen: El discurso hegemónico actual promulga una educación corporal basada en imágenes prototípicas que no tienen en cuenta los intereses, necesidades o particularidades de las personas mayores. Sobre todo, vinculadas con el cuerpo esbelto, el físico imponente y la reproducción que trata de moldear la imagen corporal de una persona adolescente. Por el contrario, nuestra propuesta se centraría en invertir este modelo partiendo de las necesidades de los propios adultos, dando una mayor validez a las relaciones interpersonales, sociales y afectivas, que a la estética corporal resultante. Abstract: The current hegemonic discourse expresses a type of body education based on prototypical image…
