Promoting Students’ Health at University: Key Stakeholders, Cooperation, and Network Development

2021

Background: Cooperation among university units is considered a cornerstone for the promotion of students' health. The underlying mechanisms of health-promoting networks at universities have rarely been examined so far. Shedding light on partnerships is generally limited to the naming of allied actors in a network. Objectives and Methods: In this study, we used network analysis intending to visualize and describe the positions and characteristics of the network actors, and examine organizational relationships to determine the characteristics of the complete network. Results: The network analysis at hand provides in-depth insights into university structures promoting students' health comprisi…

MobiSim : un modèle multi-agents et multi-scalaire pour simuler les mobilités urbaines

2010

Le projet MobiSim (simulation des mobilités) vise à modéliser différentes dynamiques à différentes échelles pour simuler la complexité des mobilités quotidiennes et résidentielles, sur l'espace d'une aire urbaine. MobiSim apparaît ainsi comme une plateforme de simulation pour l'étude prospective des mobilités dans les agglomérations françaises et européennes, en lien avec leur développement et leur aménagement. Cette plateforme prend concrètement la forme d'un programme informatique qui se base sur plusieurs modèles. Elle permet ainsi de coupler une approche centrée sur les choix et les comportements individuels à une évaluation de ces comportements sur le trafic et les déplacements quotidi…

2016

Salmijärvi, S. 2016. Taitoluistelu mahdollisena sponsoroinnin kohteena. Liikuntakasvatuksen laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, liikunnan yhteiskuntatieteiden pro gradu -tutkielma, 115 s., 1 liite. Tutkielmassa tarkasteltiin urheilun sponsorointia yhden lajin, taitoluistelun, näkökulmasta. Tutkielmassa selvitettiin, millainen mahdollinen sponsoroinnin kohde taitoluistelu on ja miksi. Tavoitteena oli tuottaa urheilusponsorointiin liittyvää tieteellistä tietoa uudenlaisesta näkökulmasta ja tarjota samalla Suomen Taitoluisteluliitto ry:lle hyödyllinen katsaus taitoluistelun tilanteeseen. Tutkielmassa perehdyttiin aiempaan kirjallisuuteen niin sponsoroinnin kuin taitoluistelunkin osalta sekä selvitet…

Health promoting sports federations : theoretical foundations and guidelines

2023

Background: Researchers and policy-makers have highlighted that the potential for organized sports to promote health has been underexploited. Sports clubs have limited capacity to promote health due to their voluntary nature and have called for support from their national sports federations. The present article provides guidelines, based on the theoretical principles of health promoting sports clubs and an analysis of practical tools and proven strategies, to support national sports federations to invest in health promotion (HP). Methods: A qualitative iterative study was undertaken, based on five 2-h meetings of a group of 15 international researchers in HP in sports clubs. Notes and minut…
