An Examination of Psychosocial Correlates of Eating Disorders Among Female Collegiate Athletes     

Trent A. Petrie  Christy Greenleaf  Justine J. Reel  Jennifer E. Carter 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(3):621-632

With female collegiate athletes, we examined the relationship of eating pathology to body image concerns, weight pressures, sociocultural internalization, and mood state. Multivariate analyses revealed that the symptomatic and eating disorder groups were similar on seven of eight weight pressures, three of four mood states, on internalization, and on five of six body image measures; in all instances, these two groups reported more pathological scores than the asymptomatic athletes. Except for pressures from coaches, the psychosocial variables differentiated the groups, correctly classifying 79% of the cases. These findings suggest that athletes symptomatic of eating disorders report similarly high levels of disturbance across a wide range of psychosocial risk factors, and both groups warrant prevention and treatment efforts.  相似文献   

A Comparison between Physical Education Majors and Nonmajors in Certain Personality Traits     

Helen M. Timmermans 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(4):1088-1093

Abstract

This study was designed to investigate possible differences between physical education majors and nonmajors in certain personality traits, and between freshman and sophomore majors in these same traits. The Guilford-Zimmerman Temperament Survey was administered to 22 freshman women physical education majors, 22 sophomore physical education majors, and 77 freshman and sophomore nonmajors. The comparison between physical education majors and nonmajors showed that the majors scored significantly higher at the .01 level on only one trait, that of General Activity. In comparing freshman majors and sophomore majors, there was a significant difference only in Sociability, the freshman majors scoring higher.  相似文献   

Relationship between Perception of Pull and Draw in Archery     

Helen M. Eckert  Dorothy M. Wendt 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(4):544-549

Abstract

Subjects (21 men and 28 women) were tested for maximal pull and comfortable pull, were assigned bows on the basis of comfortable pull, were retested for maximal and comfortable pull after 24 lessons. Although there was some relationship between bow weight and comfortable pull when data were analyzed on a coeducational basis, there was no such relationship when the analysis was on a single sex basis. There was also no adaptation of kinesthetic perception of a comfortable pull to the amount of pull in a comfortable draw.  相似文献   

Angular Velocity and Range of Motion in the Vertical and Standing Broad Jumps     

Helen M. Eckert 《Research quarterly for exercise and sport》2013,84(4):937-942

Abstract

Cinematographic records were taken of the vertical and standing broad jumps, and strength measurements made of the isometric extensor strength of the hip, knee, and ankle joints for eighteen men and eleven women. A comparison of range of motion of joint actions and maximal angular velocities for men and women indicated distinct time-force coordinations of the various joint actions in the performance of the vertical and standing broad jumps. No general relationship nor pattern of relationships was found between isometric extensor strength and maximal angular velocity.  相似文献   

Muscular Christianity and its makers: sporting monks and churchmen in Anglo‐Norman society, 1000–1300     

John Marshall Carter 《国际体育史杂志》2013,30(2):109-124

This research focuses on the (scientific) interaction between civil and military institutions of physical education during the interwar period in Belgium. Based on experimental scientific research, Albert Govaerts, the Research Director of the Military Institute of Physical Education (MIPE), concluded that the Danish gymnastics method of Niels Bukh was more efficient and suitable than the traditional Swedish gymnastics method, which had become institutionalised at an academic level in Belgium since 1908. Based on Govaerts' research results, Danish gymnastics was introduced in 1934 into the entire Belgian Army as the official method of practice and, a few years later, the Danish method was also adopted ‘externally’ in a few Belgian civil institutions. A chronological transition of Scandinavian methods as a result of the modernisations that were implemented did not therefore appear to proceed so naturally in Belgium. The MIPE was to carry out a similar role as a professional profile keeper in the field of physical education in Belgium up to 1947. From a sports historiographical perspective, these Belgian results form a starting point for further international comparative research into early interaction between military and civil institutions of physical education and the associated processes of discipline building, scientification and profile keeping.  相似文献

Teachers’ intentions to use national literacy and numeracy assessment data: a pilot study     

Robyn Pierce  Helen Chick 《The Australian Educational Researcher》2011,38(4):433-447

In recent years the educational policy environment has emphasised data-driven change. This has increased the expectation for school personnel to use statistical information to inform their programs and to improve teaching practices. Such data include system reports of student achievement tests and socio-economic profiles provided to schools by various state education departments’ data services. This paper reports on a pilot study that explored factors affecting Mathematics and English teachers’ intentions to engage with the statistical data their schools receive and to consider these data when making decisions about their teaching practices. It was found that most teachers perceived that such data identify weak students and some teachers (mostly mathematics teachers) thought that they can help to identify curriculum topics that need attention. Most teachers felt that the reports were not easy to understand. Confidence in dealing with statistical data was a problem for many teachers, but especially for English teachers.  相似文献   

Action research to improve confidence in meeting diverse need and the quality of inclusive practice through lesson observations     

Helen Connett 《Support for Learning》2020,35(2):178-191

This paper reports an action research study undertaken towards the National Award for Special Educational Needs Coordination (NASENCO) on a university-based course. It follows an earlier evaluative study that identified a tension between teachers’ self-rated high levels of confidence in meeting diverse need and values which did not appear to support inclusive practice. The ‘action’ which was subsequently taken was the collection of further data through lesson observations to assess whether such confidence was reflected in inclusive classroom practice. Planning reviews were also undertaken. Several recognised features of inclusive practice that are known to benefit pupils with special educational needs (SEN) were not observed in all classrooms. The action research study findings identified very specific training needs relating to inclusive classroom practice, the design of individual education plans and the development of a shared school ethos and understanding of inclusive pedagogy.  相似文献
