Contrasts in fitness, motor competence and physical activity among children involved in single or multiple sports

2021

Abstract Study aim: While there is wide debate around specialization in one sport, there is a lack of information about fitness levels and motor competence of children participating in single or multiple sports. Material and methods: The study involved 358 fifth-grade children who participated in a set of health-related fitness and motor competence tests over two consecutive years. A subsample of children (n = 109) wore an accelerometer for seven consecutive days. The independent samples t-test and ANCOVA were used to compare differences between single and multi-sport participants in study variables and changes between baseline and follow-up. Results: Multi-sport participants performed bett…

Perceptions of sport injuries of young elite swimmers

2012

Mari Lehtinen, 2012. Perceptions of sport injuries of young elite swimmers. Department of Sport Sciences. University of Jyväskylä. Master’s Thesis of Sport and Exercise Psychology. 64 pages. Sport injuries occur at all levels of sport. Sport injury can limit or end athlete´s career. It is important to find out ways how sport psychology can prevent and treat sport in juries. This can be done for example, by having impacts on mental and physical capabilities of athletes. Aim was to study rehabilitation process of injured swimmers according to the sport psychology point of view. The aim was to study experiences of elite swimmers during recovery process. Secondly, this study helped to describe …

Pricavy-Preserving Aspects for Data Mining in ICT Services

The steady adoption of systems for profiling users behavior, collecting and critically interpreting as much information as possible about likes and dislikes, interests and habits of Internet residents and generic services consumers have rapidly become some of the hottest keywords within networking research community. Indeed, mining information about users behavior is an advantage for both service providers and service customers: on one side, providers can improve their revenues by focusing on the most successful features of their services, while on the other side, users can enjoy services which reflect closer their specific needs. There are many examples of user profiling applications. Inte…

EFFICACIA DI UN INTERVENTO FORMATIVO RIVOLTO AGLI OPERATORI SANITARI DELL'AZIENDA OSPEDALIERA UNIVERSITARIA (AOU) POLICLINICO "P. GIACCONE" DI PALERM…

2017

INTRODUZIONE: La vaccinazione antin uenzale rappresenta la misura preventiva più ef cace nel limitare la diffusione del virus in uenzale ed il Ministero della Salute raccomanda fortemente tale misura precauzionale a tutti gli operatori sanitari (OS). Gli OS sono ripetutamente esposti al virus, rappresentando una delle principali fonti di contagio per i pazienti e anticipando la malattia in uenzale rispetto alla popolazione generale. In numerosi studi, gli OS hanno riportato che la strategia preferita per implementare le coperture antin uenzali tra gli stessi, era l’organizzazione di corsi di formazione multidisciplinare sulla tematica. In questa ottica è stato svolto un intervento formativo…

Female reproductive factors are associated with objectively measured physical activity in middle-aged women

2017

Physical activity improves health and may delay the onset of several chronic diseases. For women in particular, the rate of these diseases accelerates at middle age; therefore it is important to identify the determinants of health-enhancing physical activity during midlife in this population. In this study, we focused on determinants that are unique to the female sex, such as childbearing and menopause. The main objective was to characterize the level of physical activity and differences between active and inactive middle-aged Finnish women. In addition, we examined the association of physical activity with female reproductive factors at midlife. The study population consisted of 647 women …

Dynamic Modeling for Environmental Processes: A Case Study of Lake Engure

2014

Abstract This focus of the study was on system dynamic models that could be useful for modelling environmental processes in Lake Engure. The paper considers the system dynamic model development principles, the most important elements and structure. The aim of the study was to describe possible methods of ecosystem process modelling that allow to represent the actual state of ecosystems and provide opportunities to predict further processes. The methods of ecosystem modelling considered in the paper reveal interactive factors of anthropogenic and environmental processes that influence changes in ecosystems. System dynamic models indicate not only interactions between various factors in the e…

Assessment of Microstressors in Adults: Questionnaire Development and Ecological Validation of the Mainz Inventory of Microstressors

2020

Background Many existing scales for microstressor assessment do not differentiate between objective (ie, observable) stressor events and stressful cognitions or concerns. They often mix items assessing objective stressor events with items measuring other aspects of stress, such as perceived stressor severity, the evoked stress reaction, or further consequences on health, which may result in spurious associations in studies that include other questionnaires that measure such constructs. Most scales were developed several decades ago; therefore, modern life stressors may not be represented. Ecological momentary assessment (EMA) allows for sampling of current behaviors and experiences in real…
