Miriam Hattle; Joie Ensor; Katie Scandrett; Marienke van Middelkoop; Danielle A. van der Windt; Melanie A. Holden; Richard D. Riley – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis projects obtain, harmonise, and synthesise original data from multiple studies. Many IPD meta-analyses of randomised trials are initiated to identify treatment effect modifiers at the individual level, thus requiring statistical modelling of interactions between treatment effect and participant-level…

Özdenk, Çagri – African Educational Research Journal, 2020
Maximal exercise capacity (W[subscript max]) and anaerobic threshold (A[subscript T]) are important tools used non-invasively to evaluate aerobic fitness levels and clinically possible risk. It has been shown that O[subscript 2] uptake to heartbeat ratio (O[subscript 2] pulse) at the maximal exercise test is an important parameter used to evaluate…

Field, Adam; Corr, Liam David; Haines, Matthew; Lui, Steve; Naughton, Robert; Page, Richard Michael; Harper, Liam David – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2020
Purpose: The purpose of the study is to investigate biomechanical and physiological responses to soccer-specific exercise incorporating an extra-time period (ET) and assess the test-retest reliability of these responses. Methods: Twelve soccer players performed 120 min of soccer-specific exercise. Tri-axial (PL[subscript Total]) and uni-axial…

Melero García, Lucía; Hernández Fernández, Antonio; Pérez Navío, Eufrasio – Education Sciences, 2020
This essay is aimed at analyzing the existing relationships between oncological problems and sport in future primary education teachers. This relationship was validated and confirmed by realizing a factorial analysis using an ad hoc-created Likert scale. To come up to certain conclusions, a non-experimental, descriptive, explanatory and…

Neace, Savannah M.; Hicks, Allison M.; DeCaro, Marci S.; Salmon, Paul G. – Journal of American College Health, 2022
Objective: Traditional views of exercise motivation emphasize the long-term health benefits of exercise. We investigated whether mindfulness, present-moment awareness, is associated with greater exercise motivation and exercise self-efficacy in college students. Exercise self-efficacy reflects how confident individuals are that they can persist in…

Kyle T. Ganson; Alexander Testa; Rachel F. Rodgers; Dylan B. Jackson; Jason M. Nagata – Journal of School Health, 2024
Background: This study aimed to investigate the association between violent sexual victimization and muscle-building exercise among adolescents. Methods: Cross-sectional data from the 2019 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (N = 8408) were analyzed. Two indicators of non-dating-related sexual violence (lifetime, past 12 months), along with one…

Qi Song; Bo Rong – International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies, 2024
Data mining has been applied to a large extent in various information application fields this year. In this paper, it is applied to the students' physical exercise for partial optimization and compared with some traditional algorithms for improvement. Different analysis results are obtained under different potential information analysis…

Yuhuan Zhang; Lidong Wang; Tian Li; Xiao Ma – SAGE Open, 2024
Previous studies have indicated a positive association between physical activity (PA) and mathematics achievement. The present study explored the association of PA outside school with math interest using longitudinal data from Kaifeng, a medium-sized city in Central China. A two-tier multilevel logistic model was conducted using 2,132 students'…

Ke, Wei; Huang, Jianhao – Educational Research and Reviews, 2023
The interruption of regular physical exercise among Chinese college students is a key cause of the lack of motivation to exercise. Therefore, on the basis of self-efficacy theory, this study analysed the interrelationships between the perception of transformational leadership in physical education (PE) by teachers, physical self-efficacy, and…

Benjamin T. Mueller – ProQuest LLC, 2021
The research has established that physical activity is beneficial in reducing overall tension, stress, and anxiety. The problem to be investigated was which type(s) of physical activity is/are best for college students who suffer from math anxiety? The theoretical foundation of the research was based mainly on the self-efficacy theory. Students…
