Restitusjonsvaner hos unge toppidrettsutøvere i Sør-Norge : En kartleggingsstudie av utholdenhet- og ballspillutøvere
2018
Masteroppgave idrettsvitenskap ME517 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 Background: In order to perform optimally in training and competition, the recovery inbetween, through adequate diet and sufficient sleep/rest, is of great importance. Up until now, most studies have only featured adult athletes. Similarly, studies conducted on young athletes, as well as across sports, are limited. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the habits of recovery, in terms of diet and sleep, with regards to the recommendations given by Helsedirektoratet and Olympiatoppen. Further investigating the use of different recovery strategies, among young elite athletes in southern Norway. Method: A total of 36 …

Sporta kluba "Reaktors" komunikācija sociālajos tīklos un tās novērtējums dažādās mērķa grupās
2016
Bakalaura darba „Sporta kluba „Reaktors” komunikācija sociālajos tīklos un tās novērtējums dažādās mērķa grupās” mērķis ir noskaidrot, kā sporta klubs “Reaktors” izmanto sociālo tīklu Facebook.com kā veselīga dzīvesveida atbalstītājs un kā šīs aktivitātes vērtē sporta klubu apmeklētāji un Facebook.com lietotāji. Darba teorētiskajā daļā apskatīti galvenie teorijas jēdzieni – mārketings, integrētā mārketinga komunikācija, mārketings digitālajā vidē, kā arī sporta mārketings, tēla teorija un uzņēmuma tēla veidošana sociālajos tīklos. Metodoloģijas daļā aprakstītas pētniecības metodes – O.Kazakas izveidotais pievienotās vērtības modelis, kontentanalīze, daļēji strukturētā intervija, semantiskā …
Izglītības iestādes vadības pilnveidošana profesionālās ievirzes sporta izglītības attīstības sekmēšanai
2018
Maģistra darba autore ir Līga Tomsone, darba vadītāja Dr.oec Sarmīte Jēgere. Maģistra darba temats “Izglītības iestādes vadības pilnveidošana profesionālās ievirzes sporta izglītības attīstības ekmēšanai”. Maģistra darba mērķis ir pētīt un analizēt izglītības iestādes vadības pilnveidošanas iespējas profesionālās ievirzes izglītības iestādē, un izstrādāt priekšlikumus izglītības iestādes vadības pilnveidei. Darba teorētisko bāzi veido vadības zinātņu, pedagoģijas un psiholoģijas zinātniskā literatūra un autoru teorētiskās atziņas par vadības funkcijām un izglītības iestādes vadīšanas īpatnībām, kā arī profesionālās ievirzes sporta izglītību regulējošo normatīvo aktu regulējums un informācij…
Referee efficacy in the context of Norwegian soccer referees – A meaningful construct?
2018
Abstract Objectives The purpose of this study was two-fold. Firstly, to examine the measurement/factorial validity and invariance of the Referee Self-Efficacy Scale (REFS) among Norwegian soccer referees. Secondly, extending scale validation, we also tested a structural model in which a second-order version of the REFS was modelled to mediate a set of theoretically informed antecedents and outcomes. Design Cross-sectional. Method One hundred and eleven Norwegian elite referees and 81 non-elite referees completed an electronic questionnaire measuring expected antecedents and outcomes of perceived self-efficacy in the role as referees. Results Analyses provided support for the first – and sec…
Physiotherapists’ validating and invalidating communication before and after participating in brief cognitive functional therapy training : Test of c…
2021
Objective The aim of this study was to investigate physiotherapists’ validating and invalidating communication, before and after brief Cognitive Functional Therapy (CFT) training that included a session on validation skills. Associations between validation/invalidation and the characteristics of the interviews and physiotherapists were also explored. Methods Eighteen physiotherapists treating patients with low back pain participated in the study. The study had a within-group design in which validation and invalidation for physiotherapists were rated before and after training using a reliable observational scale. We also collected data on interview length and physiotherapists’ and patients’ …
Comparison of inter-trial recovery times for the determination of critical power and W' in cycling
2017
Critical Power (CP) and W’ are often determined using multi-day testing protocols. To investigate this cumbersome testing method, the purpose of this study was to compare the differences between the conventional use of a 24-h inter-trial recovery time with those of 3 h and 30 min for the determination of CP and W’. Methods: 9 moderately trained cyclists performed an incremental test to exhaustion to establish the power output associated with the maximum oxygen uptake (p V O2max), and 3 protocols requiring time-to-exhaustion trials at a constant work-rate performed at 80%, 100% and 105% of p VO2max. Design: Protocol A utilised 24-h inter-trial recovery (CP24/W’24), protocol B utilised 3-h in…
A New Reliable Performance Analysis Template for Quantifying Action Variables in Elite Men’s Wheelchair Basketball
2019
This study aimed to develop a valid and reliable performance analysis template for quantifying team action variables in elite men’s wheelchair basketball. First action variables and operational definitions were identified by the authors and verified by an expert panel of wheelchair basketball coaching staff in order to establish expert validity. A total of 109 action variable were then placed into 17 agreed Categorical Predictor Variable categories. The action variables were then used to develop a computerized performance analysis template for post-event analysis. Each possession (n = 200) from an international men’s wheelchair basketball game was analyzed by the first author on two occasio…
Methodological Guidelines Designed to Improve the Quality of Research on Cross-Country Skiing
2021
AbstractCross-country (XC) ski races involve a variety of formats, two different techniques and tracks with highly variable topography and environmental conditions. In addition, XC skiing is a major component of both Nordic combined and biathlon competitions. Research in this area, both in the laboratory and field, encounters certain difficulties that may reduce the reliability and validity of the data obtained, as well as complicate comparisons between studies. Here, 13 international experts propose specific guidelines designed to enhance the quality of research and publications on XC skiing, as well as on the biathlon and Nordic combined skiing. We consider biomechanical (kinematic, kinet…
Validation of the swimming competence questionnaire for children
2020
Two studies were employed to test the reliability and validity of the Swimming Competence Questionnaire (SCQ) among primary school children. Study 1 was a cross-sectional survey in 4959 primary school children. Study 2 was a pre-post-test quasi-experiment among 1609 primary school children who underwent a 20-lesson learn-to-swim programme. In Study 1, exploratory structural equation modelling revealed excellent goodness-of-fit and scale reliability for a two-factor model comprising distance and skill factors, which supported the construct and convergent validity. SCQ scores were significantly and positively correlated with swimming outcomes (i.e., self-efficacy, intention, swimming frequenc…
