Development and initial validation of an instrument to assess the motivational qualities of music in exercise and sport: The Brunel Music Rating Inventory     

COSTAS I. KARAGEORGHIS  PETER C. TERRY  ANDREW M. LANE 《Journal of sports sciences》2013,31(9):713-724

Equivocal results of the psychophysical effects of music have been explained in part by the insensitivity of researchers to important personal and situational variables when selecting music. The aim of the present study was to operationalize a conceptual framework for the prediction of psychophysical responses to music into a music rating inventory to assess the motivational qualities of music in exercise and sport environments. An initial item pool was developed and administered to 334 aerobics instructors. Exploratory factor analysis produced a 13-item, four-factor structure (association, musicality, cultural impact and rhythm response), which accounted for 59.2% of the variance. This model demonstrated acceptable fit indices when tested using confirmatory factor analysis on 314 exercise-to-music participants, and was better than an alternative two-factor model. When cross-validated using multisample confirmatory factor analysis, the model also showed an acceptable fit overall, although some invariance in the rhythm response factor was evident that can be attributed to the exclusive use of synchronous music by aerobics instructors. The Brunel Music Rating Inventory appears to be a valid and reliable tool for both researchers and practitioners to assess the motivational qualities of music in exercise and sport environments.  相似文献   

The Psychometric Properties of the Short and Long Versions of the Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire     

Sophie Xin Yang  Sophia Jowett 《Measurement in physical education and exercise science》2013,17(4):281-294

The Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire was developed to effectively measure affective, cognitive, and behavioral aspects, represented by the interpersonal constructs of closeness, commitment, and complementarity, of the quality of the relationship within the context of sport coaching. The current study sought to determine the internal reliability and factorial validity of the long (the 29-item Long Version Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire) and short (11-item Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire and 13-item Greek Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire) versions of the Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire with a sample of 800 Chinese coaches and athletes. Results supported the internal reliability across all Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire versions examined, while confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) only supported the factorial validity of the three-factor first-order model of the 11-item Coach–Athlete Relationship Questionnaire. The results are discussed in terms of their implications for theory, research, and practice.  相似文献

Unmasking the teaching quality of higher education: students’ course experience and approaches to learning in China     

Hongbiao Yin  Wenyan Wang 《Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education》2014,39(8):949-970

The quality of teaching in higher education is a topic which has generated heated debate in China, though there has been a remarkable paucity of empirical research into the characteristics of teaching and learning in Chinese universities. This study examined Chinese university students’ course experience and its influence on their approaches to learning. A sample of 2529 students from 15 full-time regular universities responded to the questionnaire. Results indicated that the Course Experience Questionnaire could be a promising instrument for assessing the teaching quality in Chinese universities. Chinese undergraduate teaching was characterised by the dominance of developing students’ generic skills, but a lack of emphasis on students’ independence. The study revealed some desirable influences of university teaching on students’ approaches to learning, but an increase in instructors’ effort and commitment to teaching was found to facilitate a surface rather than a deep approach to learning. These findings highlighted the need to reflect on the teacher-centred nature of undergraduate teaching in China.  相似文献

网络用户信息获取语言使用行为研究   总被引：7，自引：1，他引：6  

赖茂生  屈鹏 《现代图书情报技术》2008,3(6):16-23

以网络搜索中用户信息获取习惯为研究对象,旨在对网络搜索中的基本词汇现象及其认知与利用进行总体把握性质的研究。主要使用网络问卷调查方法,辅以用户对比实验所得到的结论进行比较分析,得出在Web2.0标记、浏览中分类语言及其呈现方式、搜索词汇来源与类型、系统提示相关词等方面的研究结论：标签已经在Web2.0中有着极大的影响力;用户浏览时依赖分类语言,查询时对系统提示的相关词亦有较强认知;专指度较高的搜索词汇更容易在网络搜索中取得较好的效果。对于这些特征的把握,有助于各种网络获取服务的改善。  相似文献
